QS138 3000W Votol Wiring Diagram and E-Bike Wiring

I made a video about an electric Derbi I am building. 

Here is the wiring diagram I drew up. This is coming from the Votol EM200 controller. 

RM85 Derbi Dirt Ped Start 5

I got a Suzuki RM85 rolling chassis and a Derbi Start 5 engine.

I wasn't originally going to motor swap it, but then I had a spare Derbi engine that looked like it would fit in well. 

I cut some custom engine mount plates and got to work. originally I was going to use a flat reed, but then a start 5 fell into my lap. I made the mount go thru the swingarm mount so that way it would stay aligned. Aligning everything was difficult, but I got it pretty straight. After removing all the material of the frame I needed to add some new down tube supports. 

I used tubing in my vice and a big tube over it and bent it slowly one cm at a time. 

 After I got everything welded up, I sanded it, primed it, and painted it with a 2 part urethane paint. After paint, I then started cleaning up all the parts and putting it back together. 

 I got this awesome pipe... But it doesn't fit so I guess I gotta hack it up.

I also picked up new plastics and took a test photo before I got eh frame painted. 

I found a whole bunch of beans on the side of the road

 I am trading beans for custom intake welding

XR200Rs have intake boots that are no longer made and often tear so I am forced to make something custom. I make a plate and adaptor that I will connect with a hose. Tyler tig welded them together for me. 

Spark Plug Side Gapping

 

 Is this video I am side gapping some plugs. This does A LOT for the performance of the engine.

The increased electrode exposure guides the angle of the flame front down towards the center of the combustion chamber promoting a faster, more complete and even burn thus increase power, performance and fuel mileage as well as reducing plug fouling.

Lateral gas porting

I learned this technique from Matt Kneen. He was building racing snowmobiles and we used it on mopeds and saw noticeable gains with a high comp head, and high timing.

Drum Brake Bracket for Disk Brake Forks

 I made a little bracket so you can run drum brake wheels on disk brake forks. 

Honda Hobbit and Derbi people need this Socket!!!

Check out this new video for you derbi and hobbit guys!

Sorting Wheels and making a new rack

 I am going thru my garage and trying to insulate it before it gets too cold. I have been pulling things off the walls, insulating, and putting them back. 

My wheel are was a total disaster. I pulled the wheels down, lowered the shelf so I could put more on the shelf, and then put the wheels back at a higher height. 

The new rack holds 10 rims. . . but I currently have 17. So I am going to go thru them and and choose the ones I want to keep and sell the rest. 

I also made a little video about the rack. 

Magnum Update!

 I am been neglecting this blog. I started doing a lot of YouTube content and my blog has taken a back seat. But I am going to try to keep it up to date. 

I finished the magnum rebuild and make it into a YouTube mini series.

KTM Freeride Electric!

 I picked up an electric KTM Freeride E-XC. I have wanted something electric for a long time and this one kind of fell into my lap. It is such a comfortable ride with all the dirt bike features and a electric powertrain. 

I have been riding it everywhere and making lots of little videos about it!

How to time an HPI CDI ignition

 I made this video about HPIs. I hope it can help someone. People seem to have an issue with the fact that the flywheel doesn't have a woodruff key. Its a really simple system once you understand it.
