    Complete Battery Pack Teardown

    Already did awhile back. I’m pretty sure I know where that claim will end up.

    Complete Battery Pack Teardown

    We made a big mistake by not taking Reckonings advice and pushing for involuntary bankruptcy. All this ABC nonsense did was enable Armanino to selectively take care of their buddies. The end result is still no Alta or new company looking to build bikes and absolutely NO transparency with the...

    Complete Battery Pack Teardown

    Good to see an R pack made it into the hands of some dude looking to create a Frankenstein fire hazard and not the owners of bikes that need one. Glad the months of making contacts and putting the word out really paid off (y)

    Complete Battery Pack Teardown

    There are small plug in boards along the sides. A master and a slave. You can swap those boards around and interchange modules any way you like.

    Change of Pace - KX125 Shreddage at Pala Raceway

    Last weekend I lucked into a Beta demo ride and got to ride 13 different Beta models. Riding the small 2 strokes was my hands down favorite, what a riot! Been a long time since I had a 125 I forgot what it was like. Made me almost want to go out and buy one but I know it would only be fun for...

    Honda CR Electric! Yes!

    IMO what is hurting this technology from progressing more than any other current factor is the profit margins are just not there for them to justify the development.

    Kick stand catch/hook

    I have the Alta installation manual at home. I’ll try and post some pictures of it tonight. The little spring does nest in the big one.

    The R pack wirebond issue

    @rayivers , it’s definitely an aluminum alloy. We speculate it was something the manufacturer of the wirebonder specified for their process. There would be options for using a tinned copper wire in place of the aluminum, but then you are altering the characteristics of the original fusing...

    The R pack wirebond issue

    I was looking for any such products and wasn't able to find anything. Could you link such a product? The OEM fuse wire would not take solder for me. Perhaps with a different method? I had no luck trying.

    An alternate battery pack

    At the moment it's going to be difficult to even locate a pack to buy. We may however be able to get samples of the individual components as there has been some battery parts emerging from the Alta factory sell-off. Plus it would be far less complicated to ship those parts compared to a...

    Lower CG for Better Handling

    There might be enough slack in the connections for an inch or so. Should be a relatively harmless thing to try. I say go for it. Nothing comes to mind why it wouldn’t work.

    MXR dead this morning... (and now alive!)

    If we keep putting our heads and resources together, we will keep these bikes running.

    The R pack wirebond issue

    Not enough room for the negative connection to get two electrodes in there. It’s way tighter in that spot than the pictures would lead you to believe. Also, any spot weld method would necessitate the use of a different material than was engineered for the OEM fuse wire. Would it be the best...

    The R pack wirebond issue

    Now thanks to the access to the Multi-Tool software we can see what this code 36 imbalance looks like on the battery graph; Now note we have 4 modules, each a different color, made up of 21 individual bars. Each "bar" represents a parallel group of six 18650 cells. Now I can confirm after...
