sounds like a good start. i'm also new, and really looking at ways to get
some better range, that is the only downside i see. in australia, there are
not many guys doing this, so i have to seatch for it all myself.
i am looking at the shunt motor that "thunderstruck" sell, as it also has
the power of regenerative braking, which will ass a small percentage to
range, has anyone used, heard anything about these???

My bike is the honda vf500. Etek motor, alltrax 48v controller, 4 hawker
odessey 40ah batts, small 5 ah accy batt, onboard charger. Range is 20
miles to around 80% discharged. 14 f, 43 rear for ratio.
A typical ride for me is 3 miles freeway (60mph) then 7 stop and go 25-30
mph. When i get to work i have generally 45-55% capacity left. I plug it
in and charge while i am working. The ride home is a little eaiser (down
hill) but is still have to save enough range to jump on the freeway for
the last 3 miles.
