Hey johnrob, nice build man. I have been doing some research on parts and equipment for an electric bike, as well as an electric motorcycle.

If I can get that 12x A123 cell deal for a somewhat bulk order, then it will be golden! 58cents / Wh for $65 for 12 cells.

If I go ahead on the electric motorcycle, I plan to use somwhere between 25hp and up to even 70hp. I still need to do more research on how much hp it compares to gasoline for bikes. In cars, it's about 2:1 ratio, of electric:gasoline performance per hp, like you need 1/2 as much hp to have the same acceleration as gasoline, but not topspeed.

Keep it up.
