Electric Motorcycle
Timeframe: 2016 - Present
This is my first registered, road legal electric vehicle conversion. The motorcycle is built using the frame of a 1965 Honda S 65. As can be seen in the various pictures in the gallery the frame was originally red, but was repainted desert tan to complement the ammo cans used for storing the batteries and other electronics. Currently the motorcycle is capable of reaching 60 mph, has a range of 50 miles and weighs approximately 230 lbs.
