Hi Everyone,
If anyone is interested, Matt Graham and I are selling Orange Crush, our
24V super pocket bike that we built to chase the NEDRA 24V record. With
the 28Ah SVR's we were .3 secs off the record. We just put brand new
Aerobatteries AB16's in so it is much lighter with more power, with a
light weight rider, it should break the record.

New management at our local drag strip doesn't allow these smaller bikes
on the track anymore and we have no place to race it - so we are selling
it without another run at the record.
There are more pics of the bike in EM.net gallery here:

The bike uses a special built series wound DC motor from Jim Histed
called "Mighty Tim", a powerhouse 24V motor in a small frame. It is
contactor based for control using an Albright SW180 contactor to deliver
the Aerobatteries power to the motor. Requires 2 switches closed to
engage and has NEDRA legal disconnect on top.
Anyone at the High Voltage Nationals last year in Chicago say that this
bike can smoke the tires with best of them!
Bike ready to ride and spare rear wheel/tire: $300 (obo) plus shipping.
If anyone is interested, please let me know. (Please email me offlist)
Thanks, Shawn
