| Vehicle | 1985 Yamaha FJ1100 it was going to cost $1000 to repair 2nd gear so I went electric for less. |
| Motor | Hyster Series Wound DC |
| Drivetrain | 24 volt hydraulic pump motor 6.7 diameter GE |
| Controller | Logisystems 36-48 volt 700 amp |
| Batteries | 12 Everstart 350 cca lawn mower, 12.00 Volt, Lead-Acid, Flooded Most bang for the Buck! I have a wish list for batteries but these will pay for themselves. |
| System Voltage | 36 Volts |
| Top Speed | 65 MPH (104 KPH) So far so good. My first trip was 5 miles and 5 minutes at 65 mph. After a short charge and a prayer, I made it safely home after 10 miles at 45 to 50 mph. |
| Range | 20 Miles (32 Kilometers) the area here is very hilly i have several 50 to 150 ft elevation changes. Flat land would greatly increase the range. |
| Seating Capacity | 2 adults |
| Curb Weight | 500 Pounds (227 Kilograms) the bike feels lighter without the gas motor |
| Conversion Time | 60 hours labor |
| Conversion Cost | Less than $900 |
| I will post more video soon. | |
