    Yet another CRF 250 Build but its my first so... ;)

    I am loaded, and I am driving to Fox raceway tomorrow, to camp overnight and ride sunday. Do you want me to bring the 450CRF Honda. Are you still interested in it. I can bring it with the test battery. Hope to see you there. I have a 2003 Flair Class A 32' Motorhome, with a trailer.

    Hey guys, the waiting for the battery is painful. If you got the fed ex label info, the battery has shipped. I think they do not airship these batteries. It takes just way too long. But boat ship and Fed ex it once it reaches your country. It looks like in Germany they use UPS. For my builds, I...

    Charge from Battery Bank without an Inverter to AC

    I have done a little bit with this quick charge system idea. So I have a bike with 2 x 20S6P batteries in my YZ250F. We were riding in So Cal in the summer. After one 5-6 lap moto, we came in to charge and it did. I have a Dual Battery switch on it so I could separate them to charge, which...

    2023 Honda CRF250R with QS138 70H V3 Motor and EM260S Controller

    The chargers I use are for 72V (nominal, 84V Peak 20S). You will need to get a generator for the track. Very few tracks have power, and now with all the Starks, you can't get to the outlets. They are only 120V 15A also. At that power, you can only push 84V 15A. So I bought a 50lbs 3500W...

    You are right about frame not being the reference ground in the system, but I think the controller or motor do have ground on their cases. I had a wire come loose, and it sparked to the frame, but no serious damage, this started me looking into an earlier fuse in the power circuit.

    2023 Honda CRF250R with QS138 70H V3 Motor and EM260S Controller

    These worked real good since the relay is built in. And you are right to seal it up. I burnt up a couple before I water sealed it.

    2023 Honda CRF250R with QS138 70H V3 Motor and EM260S Controller

    Dave , here is a list of components I use for the 72-12 V converter, and wiring harness, and relay to make it all work. The problem is it won't work with the E&C wiring harness, you will need a stock Chinese harness from the controller. Give me a call if you have any questions.

    No I haven't, But I have heard of them, as well as the E&C new controller, and 3Shul CL1000, and the EBMX x-9000 I think are all Vesc based controllers.

    Yet another CRF 250 Build but its my first so... ;)

    A lot of good questions and observations. First you are correct about welding aluminum to steel, it doesn't work. But you can weld steel to Stainless. So I would weld the new brackets to the swingarm tube in the rear, and in the front I would weld a steel or stainless spacer between the new...

    I can see that you used the universal mounts from Lithium King. ( the long slots in the front) . These motors in this application are creating a lot of torque. Are your mounts steel? I would weld the back mount to the spacer on the swing arm bolt, and weld the spacer in the front between the...

    I don't understand the question #1. And I am running the ON/OFF switch in series with the B+ power cable and the new fuse will be in series also, before the ON/OFF switch. I would recommend a 400A fuse on the controller., I have pushed that much out of my controller, but I have never blown...

    Lithium King QS138 Rear Motor Mount

    The Lithium-king mounts are not sold as a plug and play. I have used them numerous times and they all are required to be adjusted to fit. Alignment of the sprocket to sprocket is most important. Once that is aligned, the spacers are needed to make it all solid. Then I would recommend to weld...

    Hey you made me think a little more about this. I am going to build a QS10 connector with a fuse in between the male a female connector, so it will just go in line with the battery output cable. Here is just a sketch of the idea.

    FTR Bartow Peace River Hare Scramble All Electric Class

    Boy, your a poor sport... They shortened the race from 5 laps to 4 so more could finish. Did you happen to notice that the leader of all laps was the XEMX1, even with a 10 second battery change every lap. We need to design a SuperCharger for the Stark battery. Real easy to do, the battery...

    In lieu of a contactor to totally disconnect the battery from the bike, controller, system, we use this switch. I know that they are only rated up to 60V, but they have been very reliable in our application. I agree with you about an inline fuse very early on in the wiring, Maybe on the top of...

    FTR Bartow Peace River Hare Scramble All Electric Class

    From From what I was told is that the first Stark finisher was 11th #7B Thunder McHaffie, Shawn had the fastest lap times, I think you are right the 2 fastest Starks #214 and #38B only finished 2 laps, probably close to 3 laps. #38B was only 1 sec behind Shawn at the end of lap 2. All 3...

    Dave, I told you that Amorge can make almost any size, but there are some limitations. The width of 6.10" is maybe doable, send it off to Amorge, and they will let you know if the can and will give you a price. Usually they stack 2 rows of cells in that direction, so that is why I think why...
