We Built A DIY Electric Pit Bike [Dirt Bike / Motor Bike]

- Me and Dad set out to convert this cheap pit bike from Facebook marketplace into an electric machine!
Building this electric pit bike was a lot of fun, but we still have some things we want to do it to for more power and comfort! This bike uses a 1800W brushless DC motor with an E-bike style 1800W 48V controller, combined with a 48V lithium-ion battery pack. The next main upgrades will be the battery and motor controller, as the motor can still be pushed a lot more!

great project, looks awesome. nice to do a little build with your dad too.
Cheers mate! Was good to keep us busy for a bit during lockdown ahah
Mate, such a good project idea with your dad and quality editing as usual!
So cool to see you and your Dad working together. Looks like it turned out pretty good especially considering it was your first. E-Bikes are the coming thing keep up and you may become the next brilliant designer.
Laughing with the dad moment..priceless. Never experienced it but i sure will with my son!. Great vid bro.
Should have kept the pit bike tank and put all the controls in it and put battery underneath where the engine would go
Ryan you are the reason i got a wr125x. Best purchase ever.
I love your honest approach, and the fact that you are learning as you go.
Father son projects are so cool
Man y'all having too much fun over there in the UK make me want to come over there and try to make an e-bike and live
A nice father/son project
Amazing!! I love this! Really great ideas & nice little project! I feel like I’ve learnt so much from this! 👌🏽 🏍 👍🏽
Awesome, im soo glad that you showed how to mount the motor without welding. I bought the same motor last month and still waiting for the battery. Thank you! Subbed!
Thanks a lot!
what battery did u use as got a pit bike awaiting for the motors
STEWART DEAKIN sorry for the late answer here is the battery: SEK 3,131.75 20％ Off | 52Volt Super Polly E-Bike Battery 52V 21Ah 18Ah 15Ah 14S6P Electric Bicycle Batteries for 1000W 750W 500W Bafang TSDZ2 Motor

Hahaha the welding glove temporary seat.
🤌🏻🤣
Y’all hilarious, love the build
I think electric bikes are more fun than gas ones. For me of course 😁
Great job by the way. 👍
Good idea
Helps when your dad has a sick workshop and has crazy skills like liam neeson /A TEAM
Good job guys.
Great tips regarding the motor rotation. Thank you :)
cool i really helpd me this video
You just earned yourself another subscriber. Quality work. Very much enjoyed this.
Like best m8s you and your dad love it wish my dad was into stuff like this
*great job guys but I like just to ride on it*
👍

Is pretty cool
When it comes to personal transportation and recreational electric motors, you can't beat these kits out of China. 1kw 1.8 2.0 2.5 3.0kw. All brushless mostly all paired with a controller and throttle for cheap!
mount the motor on the swing arm ,saves so much head aches ,and tossing chains off when hitting jumps
Katie, granted that the weight of the motor isn't that much but that still increases the unsprung weight.
@@isaacmadhavan i agree with you there yes it does,
@@katiekumcgil Glad you do, mate.
i made an off road scooter swing arm design similar ,and when motor was in main body i just keep throwing the chain to often ,when the suspension compressed on jumps,can see what eventually came up with here,made it as compact as could,with limited tools at the time.ua-cam.com/video/BOk2VLghv5E/v-deo.html
this has inspired me to make one I love this so much and I'm like 10
Pro tip: If you have any old batteries (especially lead acid), check if your local battery stores or scrapyards will give credit for them. I got $15.20 for 4 SLA's, 1 car battery and 1 motorcycle battery (all very dead).
Looks like fun
distance drive sprocket is away from swing arm pivot ( big ) could be a prob when you start hitting bumps ( chain will go slack /tight through suspension stroke.) old school mx bike sprung chain tensioner may help.
Thanks for the advice, I was thinking I might need to add a chain tensioner, I will have a look at getting an old Mx bike one or something similar!
That my1020 motor is a beast, I’m running 5,000 watts through it on my escooter no problem.
cool project
nice job .. i would mount the motor on the sway arm myself
Cool bike.
great little bike ! too cool !
I just went through my junk pile found a motor now to get everything else
That garden is a field
Beauty
have you thought about wrapping the motor in copper tube- passing the controller, getting a tiny radiator, reservoir, and water pump, and trying to put more volts through the motor? food for thought, fun project!
I built a simlar dirt bike over lockdown as well, same motor but an £80 5kw controller! Goes like stink!
Love what you’ve done there pal, I was thinking of doing this a couple of months back but couldn’t find much about it
So cool man 😎💪
put somr bicycle lights on it for road riding and some foot pegs
Whate are the top speed ?
*What’s the top speed*
lol i was going to buy that
one
Been a minute Happy to have you back
He back
Great prodject great video great explanation
Hey mate, good job looks sick, I've been building electric stuff for awhile and on the controller there are normally two wires called self learn or something along those lines. Look at the wiring diagram for the controller to find which two, plug it in and turn the battery on and it should go one way and if it doesn't go the right way take it out and plug back in, when finished unplug the wires and your done. But good job looks like fun
Nice.
How does one do wheelies if you cant brake and throttle at the same time?
Everyone going electric ill have your old engines!! I'll take the lot!!
Hey great project you guys. I am new to your channel so I will catch up. I look forward to seeing your project progress.
Wicked mate were did you get your motor kit from
Good bike
I wish I had found this video when my motor was spinning the wrong way but yeah haul sensor and phase wire swaps also not all motors actually colour match either which i learned the hardway 😂
Sr150 to electric with a lone star? Would it work
Hey mate I really need to know how long does the battery last and how fast
Thanks if you get this and reply 😊
Amazing vid btw
Cheers
ayyy glad ya back fella
How many tooth in back sprocket?
How much was this entire bike build in total
hey man, great video thinking of doing something similar, did you have a kit for the motor and everything?, if so where did you get it,
cheers man
Круто👍 сними ещё видео про этот байк.
awesome video bro👍👍👍
How much torque does the electric motor have?
Great..
Do another build fam
Ryan, you are the reason I quite UA-cam. Best worst ever.
Nice
How long the battery go
Killed me when he put the split link on the wrong way
Great work lads,I want to convert my monkey bike to electric one day
what controller are you going with on the upgrade you plan to do? i just purchased the kit you have in this video and am currently looking for a donor bike to e swap
How much over all did this build cost as I'm interested in building one just wondering how much all together it was / set you back ?
Do you remember by any chance what bike this was?? I just picked up something like it but I’m swapping the motor and need a fuel tank and plastics but I’m not sure what kind of bike it is
max speed ?
That’s so cool! How much did the whole thing end up costing?
wheres the update?
What’s the top speed ?
What are the characteristics of your motor and battery please. Great video !
I seen this on market place
Is it a 110cc pit bike just wondering I’m planning on doing the same thing just wanna know what size it is
How you make this dirt bike can you please give a video based how to make this dirt bike in brief plz
High speed
epic
What bike is that?
Just wondering if anyone would know but the motor that he’s using on this build could it take 72v
Any links for the electronics? I'm looking too build one but i don't know much about electricity and i don't want to buy a bunch of things that aren't going to work together hahaha
Upgrade to the 72v brushless motor!
Get a Qs motor 3000w. I have one in mine and it will pull 95 kmh
would u mind dropping me a link to tha
also if u wouldnt mind mabye a battery thst would work well with it
hey ,nice project.What is the max speed of bike?
I’m also building an electric bike and I also bought a 48v 1800w motor and I was just wondering how fast it goes
If it's to fast or slow just readjust the gearing if you can for top speed or acel but 1800 is decent I guess
how fast does it go?? lol
Try to use a larger sprocket at back .. Or else u r battery may die soon due to overcurrent at take off
do a update video on this
Sick. You should try a motorised bike kit 50cc. There even better. Such good fun!!! 👍👍
I’m currently building a bike just like this! I’m just curious on exactly what sprocket sizes you used in the front and rear. Thanks in advance!
60t in rear and 9 on front
donde se puede compar la partes ???
how fast did it go
How fast does it go
