Sorry, but you're not going to get that look 5k
im fabbing my setuff
much bigger battery bay than a EEB frame too
Doesn't look like the examples
its close enough
Looks like an 80's dirt bike
using those as inspiration and such
Just buy an older dirt bike
and convert it?
then i gotta reg it
and i cant in NYC
more likely to get busted for a converted dirt bike than this
If you're willing to fab
still looks enough like a "bike"
also need it to be light enough to lift
You can add pedals to an 80's frame
140lbs expected
whats the lightest full size moto frame out there?
60-80lbs nude
Unless you go into production race, and no
ya mines gonna be 140lb fully built on the high end
120 on the lo end
My bike without a motor or battery
is 27 lbs
with motor and battery
its like 60
bike naked is 45lbs
before me adding extra braces and swingarm
current bike is 85lbs
with motor and battery
Buy an older cafe racer bike
too small
and i already bought the donor bike
and the IGH and swingarm etc
Dang
no decent motorcycles for conversion in my area for as cheap as the bike
closest i found was a old intruder with seized engine for 850
nyc has a shitty market
Damn forgot
lol
ya
also if it looks too much like a motorcycle cops will look at me more
Who cares?
i do?
they will stop me and take the bike to destory it
and massive fine
Are you going to go to jail about it?
and jail time
28 mph is the fastest we can go here
they will bust u for unregistered vehicle, breaking the ebike laws, and w.e else they can pull out their ass
Most cops want to ride my bikes
yes so do the ones here
but every so often a rookie try hard shows up
been grilled before about it
even on current one
most dont give a single shit
Damn
That sucks
but the more i go to moto the more that rookie will get hard about busting me
and technically they in the right so the other cops wont stop em
Rookies here want to ride the bike more
NYC mate, cops here are assholes
Most people here rid dirt bikes etc
i should know, i got several cop friends
Why like in NYC?
until about a year ago, all PEVs were banned
live*
they had thousands crushed
family
and job security
its not all bad once u learn to work around the city quirks
Learning to work around the quirks means working around having a life
i have quite the life lol
im enjoying it
i just make sure not to speed in the common areas there is cops.
You're building something awesome
tru but the high speed capabilites is so i can get ahead of traffic at lights
and avoid light runners
Where Is live there is no emissions, or ebike limits, and there is a google campus 20 miles away
not bad
if i move thou its so i can get my own full machine shop and gunsmithing done
That's why I want a fast ebike
and you can rent a 4 bedroom house
for 600 a month
If you need that space
I know the place for you
Have you heard of lucid motors?
pay 400 at the moment for the space i have
full basement work room, garage, had 220/8 extra outlet lines installed just recently
no i havent
what state u in?
AZ
im too brown
lol
LOL
and brown big person who works on guns would be even worse
Yo habla, Salam?
You don't know AZ do you?
had a friend living there for a while
he moved away recently back to ny
