  • In this video we are building another electric dirt bike, this time we are modifying the dirt bike engine and installing the electric motor into the engine so therefore we can still have the 6 speed transmission and clutch.

    Keep the plastics and put a charge port in the fuel cap 😊

  • @12rafferty
    @12rafferty Před 3 měsíci +155

    Shroud and full plastics are definitely much better

  • @paulwyatt1666
    @paulwyatt1666 Před 3 měsíci +37

    Full plastic set most definitely. Looks professionally done with everything on it.

  • @danw1955
    @danw1955 Před 3 měsíci +20

    Yep, definitely needs the tank and plastic goodies. If you can find some similar colored plastic to extend the front bottom of the tank, it would probably look even better. Plus that expanse of sheet metal on the back of the battery cover would probably be ideal to mount the controller and keep your power leads fairly short! This is turning out really nice Chris! Electro-Suzi lives!😂👍👍

    Definitely looks better WITH the tank and shroud.

    I like it with the plastic !!!!

  • @mikesmith7447
    @mikesmith7447 Před 3 měsíci +8

    I like both looks, but the plastics concealing the electronics speaks volumes about the build quality. And that’s a good look.

  • @lopez8122
    @lopez8122 Před 3 měsíci +32

    With the shroud looks alot better to me

  • @davidwentz644
    @davidwentz644 Před 3 měsíci +12

    Would have been great to integrate the battery box into the design of the frame. Make it a structural piece, and functional.

  • @davidfink4963
    @davidfink4963 Před 3 měsíci +7

    Def the shroud. Although your work is exemplary and should be displayed, the shock value of a stock looking machine will be much greater. This is an awesome, inspiring build.

  • @user-oz8lo3bi1q
    @user-oz8lo3bi1q Před 3 měsíci +12

    I like it with the plastic And Gas tank

  • @normanpeterson251
    @normanpeterson251 Před 3 měsíci +4

    I’ve never been a fan of all the chains on everything but this build has made me me me take a second look. You can build anything! Just because others have done the same thing doesn’t mean you can’t do it better. Keep up the work

  • @gremlin3362
    @gremlin3362 Před 3 měsíci +3

    Watched a kid a few years back that built a functional mini tank. I feel like your rendition of that would be epic!

  • @chigger68
    @chigger68 Před 3 měsíci +2

    I love what you have done. Mad respect. I wish my surron ultra had at least a low-hi gear. If only someone would make a planetary 2 speed to replace the jackshaft along with a solenoid shift. This would allow me to run a large rear sprocket for gear reduction and shift to a high gear when the motor runs out of RPM.

  • @nathandowns369
    @nathandowns369 Před 3 měsíci +19

    Your knees will want those shrouds on trust me.

  • @CdnFuryGamez
    @CdnFuryGamez Před 3 měsíci +5

    Shrouds and gas tank might help out with cooling forcing air around the battery box down to the motor

  • @jordandunmill8236
    @jordandunmill8236 Před 3 měsíci +1

    I like the plastics as it hides the battery box and closes up the big gaps.

  • @CreeperCustomPaintball
    @CreeperCustomPaintball Před 3 měsíci +4

    Yes this project is back! I can't wait to see this thing rip

  • @whodat90
    @whodat90 Před 3 měsíci +1

    I’d do a bolt on piece across the top of the battery box connecting the upper frame rails right at the upper bend and a set of tubes coming directly from the rear shock upper mount to as high on the new frame rails as practicable.

    Full plastics looks good and if it’s leaking oil it’s just letting you know it still has some

    Personally i do without plastic. Could paint it black or try to match the other colors.and for the frame Yes thats strong enough. Good job so far

    Definitely with all of the plastics!

  • @TheMeanderingNomad

    I really love your channel and admire your garage! I took some welding classes and have been making custom frames just like you! I would love to for you to make a video on your shop, tools n hardware you use/have and use regularly for welding. where you store your bare metals. And possibly hacks that make custom fab work easier. Thanks again and great channel!!

    I like it with the plastics on, I have stealth bomber clone and I added CRF50 shrouds. it works well to have something plastic to squeeze your legs onto when hitting whoops.

  • @clayvanhornii4643
    @clayvanhornii4643 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Keep in mind, your using a 2 stroke transmission which is a very close ratio because 2 strokes don't have torque. You would have been better off using wide ratio transmission. The electric motor had all the torque. You could use the wider ratio and use more of the gears.

  • @joeblow9087
    @joeblow9087 Před 3 měsíci +1

    Hello, big fan of your builds , I'm not sure of the terminology on electric bike motors , but on RC's I always go into the ESC programming and turn the "punch" level down to about 50% ( it acts like a soft start-up , ) it also makes it ( the RC ) way more controllable and puts way less stress on the drive train when you punch it , it's not as quick to respond , but I'll take that over replacing broken parts any day .
    P.S.
    If you mention this comment on air , my name is Scott not Joe .

    Keep it stripped, it's your best looking bike, yet. Like the gears, too.

  • @onebigchevy16
    @onebigchevy16 Před 3 měsíci

    I vote keep the tank and shrouds! Looks awesome. Also you might want to loosen the chain. It looks tight

  • @tujuprojects
    @tujuprojects Před 3 měsíci +1

    Get those 1/4 of circle chamfering bits to your handmill. Some of them have a bearing at the tip that you can lean on and just mill off the chamfer edge of sheet. Those are widely used to make alu products for more appealing and nicer to humans as the edge is smooth and round.

    • @tujuprojects
      @tujuprojects Před 3 měsíci

      Ones with two flutes for wood work fine with alu.

    • @tujuprojects
      @tujuprojects Před 3 měsíci

      See the video ”workpieces in the aluminium material do the chamfering”. There are others too, just search.

  • @Woodshot48
    @Woodshot48 Před 3 měsíci

    I like both versions. An I would change them depending on what kind of riding I was doin. If I was doin more wet or muddy riding I would put the gas tank an gas tank flares plastics on because there goin to block a lil more stuff from flying up in ur face then without them.👍

  • @laymanengineer7502
    @laymanengineer7502 Před 3 měsíci

    This is gonna be the most practical electric bike ever once you get the gearing just right. I vote keep the plastics. The charge port idea in the cap from @jacobthebluesman is a great one!

    For next possible project, could you build a kayak that has the back portion cut off and build a mount for an outboard motor make an electric outboard and put it on the back and test it has been one of my dreams to try this, it would mean the world

  • @jams_finest
    @jams_finest Před 3 měsíci +5

    Keep the tank and the plastics

  • @AlphaMachina
    @AlphaMachina Před 3 měsíci +2

    I think it'd look better without any of the plastic at all, and just make custom sheet metal panels for it. But that's just me. Edit: And I'd definitely go without the diamond plate. Make the battery box with flat panels facing outward.

  • @Louisianacountryboy4426

    @dodgybodger3124 Před 3 měsíci

    Can't believe you cut the tank up. 😦
    You're so good at metal fabrication, you could of made your own dummy tank, that could carry the plastics. 👍

    Can't wait to see how it works with improved gearing.

  • @brandtvanwart627
    @brandtvanwart627 Před 3 měsíci

    Looks best with the plastics, little bit of a sleeper look. Epically once you figure out the gearing.

  • @tktk1905
    @tktk1905 Před 3 měsíci +2

    You should us all the plastic because you could put the charging spot where the gas cap goes and you could take the cap off you charge it instead of gas

    I'd definitely test ride before changing sprockets, it might feel fast enough when your riding, especially given the torque of an electric motor.

  • @LordHolley
    @LordHolley Před 3 měsíci +1

    I think it would be neat if you could somehow open the bottom of the tank up and make it a battery cover.

  • @erinaledo1267
    @erinaledo1267 Před 3 měsíci

    Keep the plastics. It’s cool when it looks like something and then isn’t. I would be geeking out on the trail if you pulled up on that and I had to do a double take.

  • @user-ue2xl1fd3b
    @user-ue2xl1fd3b Před 3 měsíci

    Great content really look forward to each post - must be so much work to provide this so thank you - and I love that's its just garage engineering rather than flashy new workshop and new tools. Also I like it better without the plastics - keep the radiator plastics but make a custom shroud to replace the gas tank?
