Thumbs up Elixxer- An Electric motorcycle is born

Well I've finally saved up enough cash and done enough planning to at least start my first EV. Its a 1984 Suzuki GSXR 400 with an aluminium frame plenty of battery space. I've posted my intoduction blog about it over at www.diyelectriccar.com/blogs and will be documenting the whole process over the next 6 months or so. Trying for a 60-80km range 80-100km top speed and the performance of a 250cc bike. I've called it the Elixxer because its the electric version of the GSXR, often called a gixxer. So subscribe to the feed and watch while I dive headlong into the deep end of ecomodding !
