Converted 1990 Ninja ZX-6 Electric Motorcycle
Hi,
I'm cross posting this here as I know this is a community of folks who might appreciate something like this project. I've recently converted a sportbike to electric power. It was a grad school project but since I'm in the Active Army, I have to PCS (move) to Izmir, Turkey for one year. Since I don't want to let it sit for a year in my garage, I'm selling it on ebay. Please check it out and spread the word to anyone interested.
It would make a great bike for a college student to ride around campus or the local town. Or a great starter bike for someone beginning to learn how to ride motorcycles as there's no distracting engine noise or clutch work. I live in Kansas City, Missouri but have a flexible schedule so I can work with different shipping methods that you use.
here's the link and some features:

-Motor controller can log data via USB cable for battery pack voltage, Motor current, Battery current and throttle position (the graph picture was made by importing the data to microsoft excel)
-Factory key switch enables contactor
-Neutral dash light wired to show contactor status
-Manual switch enables controller
-Sidestand switch linked to "interrupt" relay in contactor circuit
-Street legal, registered and insured in Missouri
thanks
