Note: If you are really interested in this bike, be sure to read (all) comments of a lot of information!

Original description:
Backyard for the construction of local transport without burning gasoline. I work for less than 5 miles from my house and do a lot of space to run, and the idea was to leave the car at home and traveled with the power clean and quiet as possible.
And on the road a few weeks - always test / adjustment phase, but so far it looks like this:
I am currently using a four-volt batteries for 12 48-volt motorcycle. Because this was a "test", F-first, I was the cheapest batteries I could find (Wal-Mart's 85 maritime Ah batteries to about $ 45 each). They are, but good at the moment.
Plugs into any standard 120 volt household takes about 6 hours of charge (I'm not really sure I've taken on the night and is ready in the morning). Mathematics, said a range would be about 30 miles on one charge, but it seems much less than it is now. Again, actual numbers coming as soon as I finish testing and modification.
Total cost of the building about $ 2,800, which includes the cost of the bike home, and the engine (new), electronics, new tires, and so on operating cost (electricity) and should be about 2 cents per mile.
Some details:
D & D SepEx engine (about 45 feet of torque at 2000 rpm purchases)
400 Amp Alltrax console interface with a computer
Four 12-volt batteries, deep cycle marine (Wal-Mart)
Four trucks on board battery
More details to come. . . . . .
Go Green!
