i'm not gonna lie, I HATE electric motorcycles when people think they can race them and still be cost effective (I collect rare racing bikes) but i got to tell you that is one of the neatest setups i've ever heard of, a 20 mile range isn't shabby at all PLUS the camera on it really is just superbly neat!! good job man!!!! :)

Hey man, Thanks!

Have u ever had problems with your Alltrax controller and your etek motor, and what do you have your Alltrax controller programed to? Ive been told that the Etek motor shorts out the Alltrax controller because of its inductance.

[BenjaminNelson]

Good question! Actually, I did have a problem with the controller. I blew one out a while back. It was purchased new and covered under warranty. It was hooked up correctly, and everything else checked out. I have heard that inductance problems can be solved using a certain type of diode, but I really haven't followed up on that.

Please see some of my other videos for actual shots of the cycle.

Awesome.

I want to build one myself but I can't seem to find a good rolling chassis. The junk yards (no kidding) wanted a minimum of 800 dollars for one. That's insane.
