I figure it’s about time I started my build thread. (Been lurking for a while)
What I’ve got is:
1986 Honda 200x
60v 1800w geared motor 1/5 ratio - final ratio should be between 1:7 or 1:8 depending on my sprocket ratio- if I’m doing that right.
520 chain
520 rear 30tooth or 42tooth (already have)
520 front 12t 14t or 16tooth (already have)
20” rear tires- smoothest/lightest I could find
Total weight of the bike as it sits (no motor) 160lbs (seat w/fenders is another 20lbs)
The motor I have weighs roughly 25lbs
Planning on lithium batts 60v-30ah weighing approx 33lbs
Also have motor controller/throttle/misc switches and bolt meter/display
So- total planned weight should be around 250lbs (roughly)
I should have about everything I need (except) the battery (gotta save up for that purchase)
I’ll update as it goes together (I’m sure I’ll need help in the electrical end of it)
I’m working on the motor mounts (hopefully) I’ll have one welded in within a week or so.
I’m not looking for a racer/ just a camp cruiser. Aiming for 15mph-ish
Thanks for looking,
Feel free to say it’s not gonna work/ I’m looking for input too
