Hi Karma1968,

I am working on a simillar project, but am using a smaller alternator. What brand of generator are you using and where are you planning to drive it from. I have decided on several access points to drive the alternator when the motor is turning as opposed to driving on the drive output [only works with bike in motion].

Are you planning on a small battery and keeping it charged via the generator, or running the electric straight from the generator?

I will follow your progress with great interest, keep up the good work.

Have fun,

Have fun,

when its finished it will work off the motor like a alternator. the setup will work with a regulator and battery.

i need to order parts from the scooter store. i read somewhere on this forum 22 chains have a rpm limit. so im looking at using a belt.

cheers

Hi Karma1968,

The regulator looks like the one Whizzer uses on their production motorbikes [#9170]. If so, and you need any for testing let me know.

Have you decided on the size of battery you plan to use?

Have fun,

looks like those moped ones that are cheap was thinking of using one but couldn't find out what pins are for what, how did you find that schematic
