Electric Motorcycle
An electric motorcycle I wanted to build in high school that I never finished.
19' - 20'
* Never finished and didn't make much progress. This one is one here mainly for myself to remember rather than to present to others. Thank you Bhavesh Narala for aiding me in this project. *

85MPH Theoretical Max Speed 200 Mile Theoretical Max Range 249.54 Nm Theoretical Torque Suzuki GS650 |
Contribution |
I disassembled a Suzuki GS650 and refurbished the chassis by removing all rust and applying new paint. I calculated the battery pack specifications needed to achieve a desired 85MPH max speed and 200 mile range. I researched and sourced components needed for completion of the project. |
Improvement |
I didn't get too deep into making this project a reality, but weirdly enough, I think it would've been better to start at a complete 0 instead of with a chassis. I think I got a lot of confusion trying to figure out how to turn a gas vehicle into an electric one instead of starting from first principles. It also put restrictions on my design, as the chassis was unideal to house any battery pack shape I came up with. |
