Ok, so just an update on parts findings.

D&D ES-15-6 10HP 48VDC Motor from Cloud EV - $900
Alltrax NPX4834 from Electric Vehicles USA - $275
MK 8A22NF AGM 12V 55Ah batteries from Electric Vehicles USA - $114/each
Select-A-Charge 12V 25A charger from Electric Vehicles USA - $267 (I'm going to keep researching this one, not sure if this is proper yet)
Magura 0-5K twist throttle (works with Alltrax controller) from Electric Vehicles USA - $41


All total up so far is $1825 plus the price of the bike which is $500 assuming I get the one I'm looking at right now (waiting to hear back from him, was talking to him all week and he stopped replying on Thursday so I'm giving him till Tuesday).

Any suggestions on better places to buy stuff (AKA cheaper) or parts selection would be greatly appreciated.

::EDIT::

Hehe, actually...I take that back...Electric Vehicles USA actually has a straight up, 8HP kit for converting a motorcycle to Electric power...sweet, and it's only $1250 rather then the $1825 I parted out...and I can always upgrade to the 10HP motor if I find I need it.
