2019 KTM 450SXF Factory Edition Conversion to Electric Street Legal

Did you cut much off the underside of the tank? and i see that you cut the top mount off the motor?
@DonCox would you mind if i used your battery dimensions also? can i ask if there was a reason that you didnt go wider a the base? would it be possible to make it a bit bigger to fit more in? or do you feel like it is the right size, now you have used it a bit.

A bigger battery is always better, but I plan on a quick change battery. So I need a little space to allow easy in and out. That is why I stuck with the size. It is really tight inside the battery box. 1/2” added on each side ( front to back and side to side.) makes for easier battery building and maybe more cells. I built one battery for my own KTM, and am building a second Go with the best battery for your needs. MX requires max current. While endurance requires larger MAH. Expensive batteries can give you both. Amorge can make just the box for you also. They are relatively inexpensive, just expensive shipping.

thanks Don,

@DonCox and @Dave Daum

Just trying to finalise things with Amorge.
they are mentioning 96v with EVE 50PL as the best option for high KWH for max milage. so 50pl, 96V, 420/540amp . 26s9p .
over the 72V batteries i think you both have...

i think i am going with a fardriver ND961000

can i just sense check that with you both? We race hare scrambles and enduro with sprint stages in sweden and max milage at good pace is what im looking for. I know this might not be realistic in goals though. so a battery swap between stages will be needed. For local training we have a 8mile light ride to get the the training area. I would like to be able to ride too and from training and then home. which i do fine currently on a 300cc two stroke Beta in one tank.

really appreciate the advice from you pro's as this is the first time build

For a first build, I would go with a votol, they are very simple to program. Fardriver is more complicated to program, and I think the EBMX X9000 V3 is really easy to program but expensive. But the Votol does not support 96V
