Conversion Cost | Bike no motor: $500 Selling extra parts: ~$400? we'll see | ||
Additional Features | Just got the bike. It has a '99 front end, the better upside down forks. Most of the plastics are after market and need to be repainted but probably cut as well to fit batteries, etc. To house the batteries, I'm considering cutting frame parts off other bikes and making flanges and bolting them to the ZX frame. Since its aluminum I won't be welding much. | ||
Wish me luck. My dad is an amp-head and has wanted to convert a car for a long time. I figured a nice looking sport bike would be an easier first time project. I hope he's able to ride it once we're done!! haha |
