Gotta love the big hub, instant torque surge. Puts a smile on your face every time. More flux/field weakening will up your top speed at cost of range. Adjust your battery amps until it starts to trip your BMS and back it off a bit. Increase phase amps for more off the line and initial acceleration.
@firstname9811 an 85 can power wheelie? How light are you? Remember, no clutch to dump on electric. I have used a G450X for a while though. That can power wheelie, once it's in its power band. Something you don't have to do with electric, the torque is instant, no hanging around. Did you even understand the comment I left? Do you know what phase amps are vs battery amps? Field weakening?
Got to say as a massive dirt bike fan especially 2 strokes it pains me to see you change so much of the original frame. But I love how your mind works and that you will literally fabricate everything yourself you will go far my friend. Peace ✌️ from the UK 🇬🇧
@@justinarseneau4450if he didn't convert it, it would be rotting away or sold to someone epse who would let it rot away. Most projects dont get finished
This project definitely interest me more than the others. I think small frame dirtbikes are better than larger bikes when it comes electric conversions. Just look at the market, there are tons of electric pitbikes for a affordable price. I cannot say the same for electric dirtbikes, even when made from scratch they'll still cost to much. Pitbikes/small framed dirtbikes are just awesome in general.
I love the choice music you've chosen for this video, I'm an old school Christian metal rocker. Thanks for showing us all your talents and skills an inventions, your number 1
I would recomend you to make watter tank what will fill batterybox full off watter when that missfailure happend. its only way to safe ur bike to not burning.
There's definitely something special about small electric dirt bikes that has a charm I can't explain, I'd like to see you try it on the road w/ street tires supermoto style.... I have a Razor MX650 like that that I've modified and it is so much fun because people don't expect it to be fast but they are. A 72v 10,000w system can get you in the 60s easily on a kids toy.... I'm glad you've finally found an electric bike that finally works the way I've been wanting them to work for you, congrats and now I want to see you build more electric toys. 😁👍
Maybe Some People Believe Electric Power Is The Future, But Im Not One Of Them Because Nothing Sounds Better And Smells Better Than A Well Tuned 2 Stroke Engine Run On Castrol R .
That hump you made on the seat pan is called a joggle. I’m a retired welder but we shared the shop with the sheetmetal fabrication dept. Seen plenty of those joggles during my career.
Nice! No chain noise, More power, Helmet on, No gears, so no clutch in when changing them, PERFECT! I'm even more envious for that one than for the e-pit bike, although I must say that my eyes opened wide, when I saw a selection of an outrunner motor for this project :) It ended up great though! Would love to have such a vehicle :) Silent but fun! Great project.
I'd say let it stick at the speed it's at. More speed on this would only drain the battery pointlessly. First take it down a goat path and see what it can do. Also, yeah, the front suspension isn't quite right. Probably needs a rebuild. You've done an excellent job with this one. As bikes go, this one's your best yet.
Definitely a good idea to add a skid plate, you would've regretted the crap out of that the first time you go out and a rock smashed the battery etc lol Cool build, love the dusl shocks, looks badass 🔥
You'll quickly change your mind about kickstand when it falls down during a jump or wheelie! Love the rest. You've progressively improved your knowledge and skills to a good fabricator. Nice work.
Beautiful build. For more speed you could change sprockets or add voltage, do the second if you don't want to loose the torque it already gives off. Going 96v is much better than relying on Flux weakening
The bike is so cool! I really like the bike. You've done a really great job. Thank you very much for this tutorial. I wish you lots of fun with your hobby. Keep up the good work. I'm looking forward to your next project.
Be very careful with your regen settings now that you eliminated the freewheel on the motor. Setting the regen to 100% will send you over the bars just from letting off the throttle quickly. That said, you may like it set to 60-80% if you like massive motor braking.
When I see your notifications !!! All Right Another great video !! That darn thing has some torque now . Now you’ve got to take it apart again to paint it thanks for bringing more excitement back on my TV 😅
If you're not going to reuse that hub motor on a rear wheel again you can shave down the outer diameter quite a bit to remove weight and the overall diameter. Your lathe should be able to fit it, I know my dad's manual Kent lathe to machine down the diameter of my 8Kw hub motor which was able to remove 3/4 inch all the qa around with sill having enough protection of the magnets. I was able to lower my mini side-by-side frame for a lower CG and have more clearance. It looks cool too when it's all silver. You gotta love that instant torque using the hub motor as a chain drive mid-mount motor. Your YZ 85 came out sweet.
I know you didnt build this for weight savings, but im genuinely curious if it is heavier or lighter than the factory bike. Also the short clip of your chain flopping on the relaxed side makes me feel like you could add a spring loaded idler on it so it doesnt flop so bad. Great build though! Always love your drive and willingness to learn and do better!
Most definitely the best electric bike build yet! This one seems like it could be an actual power platform option for a YZ-80. P.S. A 2 stroke YZ will certainly rip a trench like that. maybe even a little more. Wish it had gears like a gas engine
You're just like my dad LOL. He is like an engineer, and I'm a minimalist. I would always be like, hey let's just change this or that, the bare minimum, and it should be just fine. My dad on the other hand is like or, we can throw everything in the trash except for this triangle thing. I would just start screaming no! It's never going to get done! But then the end result would be awesome. I remember roasting the tires of my monster truck golf cart back at the golf course when I worked there as a kid, like it was yesterday. We pretty much started the monster truck golf cart ran around here LOL.
Sweet build. I wish I was as talented and had the tools you have. I just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos. Can’t wait to see what you do next. 👍
that’s a sik bike build! You did a real nice job. Gonna program the controller for regen? You have the spinning mass of the motor to slow down on the rear brake, as well as the wheel. I think regen would help lots with stopping and slowing down. Keep a close eye on the six tapered bolts that fasten your front sprocket to the motor…you don’t want those loosening up! cheers, dude! Whooooop!
It is true that the silence of these QS Motors is very pleasant, I also love it and I have just bought myself one of the latest Alrendo TS Bravo of which I am going to put a first presentation and test video, and even if it's a transmission with a very wide belt, twice as wide as on an S, DS and DSR ZERO Motocycle, you hardly hear it and that's great too.
I’m actually happy that you put a kickstand onto this build. It’s so damn annoying most bikes just don’t have them. Also I’d change the gearing just slightly, like a larger front sprocket by one tooth or so. Higher top speed, but a hair less torque.
And use ludicrous amounts of talcum powder (just don't breathe it). It helps not only installing the tire over the tube, but also in use, because instead of chaffing and wearing down the tube inside the much harder tire, the talcum allows it to slip inside and rearrange itself more easily.
Put heatshrink tubes on the charging wires... also put some padding or something to prevent the main battery wires from getting worn through and shorting on the battery box.
Great job. You have to change your grip to the handlebars. Brake with the first two fingers and hold on with the other two, please. Greetings from Argentina!!
I would use that to dig trenches to run wire and conduit under ground. If a rock get lodged near that motor expect an explosion. Should box in that motor as much as possible, for obvious safety reasons.
Turned out great! Plenty of power and still looking factory...for the battery box I would cut open a jerry can and put the side panels onto the box, just for the looks... 😉 👍👍👍
(A YZ 85 will definitely make those same ruts your build did plus more bud.) I have to say this is a very impressive build. If I had a garage, and a little more electrical knowledge. I would love to build my own elec. MX bike as a winter project. Fantastic content! Keep it up.
it looks awesome do far but is odd that you did not paint the frame before final assembly ! as for braking the rear is always going to be an issue as you have 2 rotating masses that are connected ( the wheel and motor ) so the brakes are going to have a hard time and so best bet is to enable braking regen this will act as an electronic brake
@@MarioAPN It is very odd, anyone i have ever seen fabricate something be it on youtube or in my job they build what they are building to lets say 95% then they paint it before final assembly and if adjustments need to be made they grind the paint off the area then do what they need to do then paint the new area, every fabrication place works this way as building something like a frame then fully assembling it to test then dissembling to make adjustments then having to fully reassemble it to test then having to dissemble it to paint it to then have to reassemble it is a dumb way to work and it really is not how professional fabricators work
@@EQINOX187 And it looks like dogsh...after. I am not saying that this build has to be pristine, I am just saying that I work the same way. Build, test then cosmetics. We live in a society where cup holders and multimedia are selling cars and that is, imho, dumb.
@@MarioAPN If you build paint then make modifications then pain the area and i t looks shit then this is on the person doing it not the process, as i said i have see many do it and i work in a place that does it and when done right you can paint modify then paint the area and it looks no different, no body intelligent wants to cause work and potential complications by repeatedly building and then dismantling a project, again this is not how professional fabricators work, they build paint then adjust then pain then adjust then final paint
That nocking on the skidplate reminds me of the drum intro from Phil collins in the air tonight 😂. I really like your video's dude... Keep up the good work. Greetings from the Netherlands.
quick suggestion for you wiring adventures, put one jacketed and one unjacketed connector on each side. you would have those arc issues and you also will prevent yourself from connecting the wires incorrectly.
Love it man! Would like to see some mods to the other bike. Maybe limit output for battery life and lower it a bit to fit you more. Possibly even smaller wheels and tires to get it lower.
You're an awesome builder/fabricator, I watched you from the beginning. I would recommend you also to focus on the painting/finishing side of things because then you'll have the complete package. Great videos, keep up the good work! Regards!
There's 622 Thousand of us wondering 'Why didn't you at least Primer the frame and parts before reassembling'?You could use 'Weld-Through' primer so it all doesn't rust again./It looks Awesome,and seems to fly.The torque at launch seems great for trails,etc too.Kudos!
From what I have seen he tends to fully test something before taking it completely apart (yet again) to prime and paint. I am not that patient and tend to sling paint when I think something is even remotely done... then grind some back off when I have to change something.
Great build, really want to see how this handles in the dirt! If you're looking for more power and top speed, go higher voltage. So a new battery and a controller will do that. The motor won't run in to trouble from a higher voltage, it will actually run cooler for the same power output (as will the phase wires). For example the 100V 250A Trampaboards VESC one is about a quarter of the volume of your current ESC and will easily double the theoretical max power and increase top speed with a higher voltage (and/or with some field weakening). Pair this with a Cycle Analyst display. I've used it in my own projects and its well worth the extra spend compared to cheaper VESC controllers. I run it at 90v +6kW peak and it is barely warm to the touch after an hour. Setup/tuning will be a bit more involved tho, but likely has a lot more knobs to turn than what you're on now. Consider it if this one happens to give up the magic smoke... Heat buildup is a big problem for these large hubs, but injecting it with some ferrofluid and adding some cooling fins will help a lot there. Make sure to check the motor casing after some running time, ideally water/spit shouldn't sizzle away or burn a unprotected hand.. You could also look into regenerative brakes to improve on the brake performance and reduce wear. Finally, I would be *VERY* careful with that battery as it is, I seem to recall you run it with limited or no BMS (also not sure about the cells in that thing)? This is a serious fire hazard both when charging and discharging.
*Rounds off all the nubs on his new rear tire and packs the spaces full of dirt by digging trenches in the yard* *Takes it out on the road.* Chris: "This feels squirrelly....why does this feel squirrelly?"
You should put a little air in the tube before you install it. It makes it easier and it avoids folds in the tube which will make the tube fail faster plus you're less likely to pinch the tube when you install it.
Love you channel man but to be honest when I saw the start of this build I was like wtf are you gonna do with that motor😂 but fr it’s definitely one of you’re coolest builds, please keep up the awesome content!!!
Hy, Waaoouuuh, what amazing job you did. Very good thinking. I dont think that she goes so slowly. The speed seems OK. For the breaks, may be they need to use a little. I am waitting for the off road impatiently. Kris
The spinning mass of that big hub motor is like a flywheel and makes braking harder. If you can turn on regenerative braking, it should be easier to lock up the brakes.
Have a play around with rear sprocket sizes. Just a few teeth at a time. You will be surprised at the results. Great build mate👍. Imagine it with a small front hub motor built-in also 🤔❤
@firstname9811 just curious as to what kind of divvy you are. I've only been riding knocking on 10 years. Wondered why someone else who proclaims to ride would be such a dick. Turns out it's because you're anti-ev. Can you not accept people like different things without having a tantrum?
Cutting that frame for the controller scares me. Need that triangulation there. Also the brakes need the right (and good quality) master cylinder. Piston size and quality is everything on that. Fun watch, thanks.
That’s the craziest gardening tool I’ve ever seen! But it looks like a lot of fun to dig rows for growing
He didn’t say but he’s planting baby e- bikes in that row , then the next row will be corn 🌽 wtf lol

it is tradition that Chris must pick dirt and mulch out of his shelving for weeks after finishing a build.
If you're not going to reuse that hub motor on a rear wheel again you can shave down the outer diameter quite a bit to remove weight and the overall diameter. Your lathe should be able to fit it, I know my dad's manual Kent lathe to machine down the diameter of my 8Kw hub motor which was able to remove 3/4 inch all the qa around with sill having enough protection of the magnets. I was able to lower my mini side-by-side frame for a lower CG and have more clearance. It looks cool too when it's all silver. You gotta love that instant torque using the hub motor as a chain drive mid-mount motor. Your YZ 85 came out sweet.
Amazing job well done, what a lovely good young man you are , Great work on the bike build, Thanks for sharing the video with us👍👍👍
Well, you had to do something with that hub motor. When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Well done.
I know you didnt build this for weight savings, but im genuinely curious if it is heavier or lighter than the factory bike.

Oh, a 3 speed switch is handy. Plus you can put a reverse switch on it too for assisted reversing.
I like the fact that he's never ridden it before and he floors the s*** out of it 😂 beast 💪
*Rounds off all the nubs on his new rear tire and packs the spaces full of dirt by digging trenches in the yard*

BEST PROJECT EVER.
Bro it's Respect 👍
HELLO__UZBEKISTAN🇺🇿🇺🇿🇺🇿
Awesome bike it looks like fun ! Let’s see some wheelies 👍
Certainly won’t annoy the neighbours with this one 😉👍
You should put a little air in the tube before you install it.
It makes it easier and it avoids folds in the tube which will make the tube fail faster plus you're less likely to pinch the tube when you install it.
This kind of stuff is exactly why I want money, free time, and LOTS of tools 😂
Love you channel man but to be honest when I saw the start of this build I was like wtf are you gonna do with that motor😂 but fr it’s definitely one of you’re coolest builds, please keep up the awesome content!!!
Nicely done. Brakes definitely need blead.
You should connect the rear brake to the foot pedal, the stock setup.
Yeah you have a bit of weight on that back brake with the hub motor being heavy.
Better than the last design though with the mtb frame looks like fun.
Mecanic mai pasionat si mai bun sigur ca sunt foarte putini ca tine, bafta si succes, apreciez ce faci, avem multe de invatat, multumim.
Hy, Waaoouuuh, what amazing job you did. Very good thinking. I dont think that she goes so slowly. The speed seems OK. For the breaks, may be they need to use a little. I am waitting for the off road impatiently. Kris
Yz 85 can absolutely do that I raced 85cc and 125cc for years and a 85cc can rip a grown man off it if there not careful
Turned out so great !!!
The spinning mass of that big hub motor is like a flywheel and makes braking harder. If you can turn on regenerative braking, it should be easier to lock up the brakes.
This is probably your best build yet.
Rear suspension looks a bit over damped, front looks a bit under sprung
Have a play around with rear sprocket sizes. Just a few teeth at a time. You will be surprised at the results. Great build mate👍. Imagine it with a small front hub motor built-in also 🤔❤
Heck of an awesome build Chris. That sure as heck has a lot of power.
It couldn't even pull up front wheel. Have any of you rode before?
@@Censortubes have you?
@@th3d3wd3r < how to tell you pissed off the local children. Comment stalk after make fools of em.
@firstname9811 just curious as to what kind of divvy you are. I've only been riding knocking on 10 years. Wondered why someone else who proclaims to ride would be such a dick. Turns out it's because you're anti-ev. Can you not accept people like different things without having a tantrum?
Cutting that frame for the controller scares me. Need that triangulation there. Also the brakes need the right (and good quality) master cylinder. Piston size and quality is everything on that. Fun watch, thanks.
I'd love to build one of these, maybe even a 65 model size would be super fun around my house.
I'm liking your new Ditch Digger, Screaming Meanie.
Please make a bracket for the side shroud in place of the radiator! Love the content keep up the great work 👍
Got to admit he works hard.
