Golf Cart Motors

Two years ago I started ridding an electric motorcycle that after 7 years of design, planning and dreaming it became real.
I used a 21 spline EZ-Go golf cart motor, 48V of GBS lithium batteries and a few parts I designed and machined, plus many off the shelf parts.

CNC machining is an expensive option, many home machine shops don't have the tooling to make these parts either, so I spent the time in the shop to build the tooling needed to make these adapters, then bought the cutters needed, check around and you will find people who either failed or who hand sculpted a one off part that didn't even fit right.

I've been machining copies that are a better fit then new factory parts.


So what do you want?

EcoModer members get first dibs.

Tell me what you want and maybe I'll invest my own money in your project!

So far I've got an Ez-Go motor, a GE/Club Carg motor and a few Honda motorcycles.

A keyed shaft would be easy, if you want one let me know the size.

Other brands of motorcycle can be done give time.

Don't hold back on ideas.

Tell me details if possible, message me if you want.
