Nice!

That's what KTM should have done 4 years ago.

Looks cool man! Performance similar to a CRF150 kind of thing?

Very nice work on the battery covers, not often we see that much attention to detail.

you did a great job!
not sure about filling the batteries with foam though? as it may possible compromise cooling

thanks !

oh its not foam. the batteries are sticked in a piece of milling wood (just to get them in Place). the copper sheet, some aluminium and lots of tape help to become robust. some clamps hold the packs in place when hitting whoop sections.  the batterie packs getting little warm when running thats all.  the motor needs to be cooled from 2 x 48V cooling vans.

performance is like a 250 4 stroke.   in the middle to the high powerband the agni really can mess up.  its getting very fast to overjump

does anybody try a  Torque Control Module yet ??

Great project...

..I'm a real noob to the electric stuff, but want to build a similar project. I have a donor motorcycle, the welding and all that is no problem. Do you have a list of parts and prices and a place where I can buy the stuff?

 I really want to have one of these rides, and if it's not too much trouble on your part if you don't mind helping me a bit!

Thanks in advance
