    2019 KTM 450SXF Factory Edition Conversion to Electric Street Legal

    Tonight I am going to show how I mounted the Controller and maybe the wiring. The airbox lends itself beautifully to the Votol EM260S controller. Just remove all the parts of the air filter system until it is all just orange plastic. Some of these pictures are off a 2022 KTM I did earlier...

    another Honda CR-e build?, nope its a Suzy!

    I haven't opened up the 2 newest batteries I got from Amorge, to see what direction what is in, But the one that went into the Honda or Yamaha with a little more space, was 6.25" across the bike. It was 8.25" front to back, and 12.5" high . The KTM battery was 9" x 9" x 10" high and the...

    Florida Trail Riders Hare Scrambles

    They change the battery every lap. They only use a little over 1/2 of the battery a lap, depending on how agggressive the rider is. They are smaller batteries, like 4KWh packs. If you go to 19:50 minutes on the YouTube you can see the 20sec or so battery change. Mark sells a very smooth...

    Florida Trail Riders Hare Scrambles

    This race was a week ago, but the Florida Trail Riders get a whole line of Electrics. Many Starks and others. So the example is out there. The laps are about 10-12 miles times 4 laps. This is a little outside of their range, as you can see by their results , they lead until the last lap. I...

    2019 KTM 450SXF Factory Edition Conversion to Electric Street Legal

    I will talk a little bit about the Battery. I sent a sketch of what I wanted and Amorge sent back a drawing of the idea. Back and forth a few times, and a couple quotes to get everything correct, and off went the payment. They at Amorge do a good job in a lot of ways, but once you have paid...

    2019 KTM 450SXF Factory Edition Conversion to Electric Street Legal

    The Battery subframe is also 6061 Aluminum 1/4" thick and 2" wide with the top mount of the motor cut off so it can clear the motor by 1/4". It mounts to the lower skid plate mounts in the front, but could be made to work coming up to the bigger mounts in the front. You can see that the...

    2019 KTM 450SXF Factory Edition Conversion to Electric Street Legal

    I just finished this build and I wanted to share the build, because I think this is one of the easiest frame/models to convert, with minimum modification. None to the frame , only plastics are modified. This is a 2019 KTM, but I believe the GasGas and Husky will be almost identical...

    Dave that looks great on the battery mount system. One thing I try to do is to not have the battery touch the motor, We found in the hotter summer days here in the Southwest USA, that the battery will overheat before the motor, so if it doesn't touch or connect to the motor, none of the motor...

    That looks great. I bet you can not wait to get it on the track. I wish I could come over to ride with you. Great job.

    Most electronic motor controllers used in Bicycles and Motorcycles have brake switches and a circuit to disable motor action when the switch on either brake is closed. If you disconnect the line, the motor works. If it is connected and you close the switch and the motor stops, regen comes on...

    Why not 96 volts instead of 72?

    The answers are in most of your statements. First of all the guy that was underwhelmed with the bikes performance, was running the wrong batteries. Samsung 50S do not supply the current in the 20S12P configuration. Maybe 16 or 20P you could get the current for the performance. That is why we...

    Before you change the throttle, there are settings in the software that lets you soften it up. Adjust this number down from 16 toward 2 , 2 is very soft, 16 is aggressive.

    Good questions. On a very hot day in the middle of the summer we ran into the most heat problems. The ANT BMS does give you temp readings and records them. The date /time is a little difficult to calculate, but it is recorded. The Open Discharge setup is not stopped by overtemp, it will just...

    Dave, the throttle on my KTM was a Hirschmann throttle. I have also used the second one above ( from fmxxx666) with a standard cable and Hall sensor box. I like that feel the best. We have also used the Surron one. The cable one worked the best.

    E-bike race in Wisconsin?

    Patrick, That sure looks like a great track. Unfortunately its 1830 miles for me to make it from Lake Havasu City, AZ. What bike are you riding? Opps, I see the Stark in your picture!!! There is going to be an Electric class race, there was last year too, but only 5 entries, at Daytona in the...

    Fmxxx666, I know the wait is a real pain. I said it before, once it leaves Amorge, they have the UPS or FedEx number generated, but with no tracking, since it is not in there hands yet. It is on the mysterious shipping device (unknown, plane or Ship). Once it lands in your country the UPS or...
