Eh, I guess.
I could have made a much simpler battery rack and motor mount, but I have the know-how, tools, and time to make something more robust and tailored to my preferences.
You'll have to make a battery rack and motor mount for any electric motorcycle conversion. I'm just leaning towards cheaper parts, more modest performance figures, and a higher percentage of parts made from scratch.
