Electric Quad / Streetquad - Third test ride at high speed

[@MasterQuack14]

Great build! Your heat problem if from running low voltage and high amperage though. I checked your site and it looks like you are running 36v on a brushed DC motor. A 72v or 96v system on a brushless DC would not only make it run significantly cooler at the same wattage, but, would allow you run a much taller rear gear making tons of free torque thus lowering your power requirements.

[@dalebuckland5290]

I want to know who are all these people who disliked this video? This right here is the future of fun when petrol is no longer available.

[@DougHNuts-ee3vn]

These are trolls mostly I would think especially gas loving trolls. Have you ever been stuck at a light behind a "classic" car like a 70s model Chevelle and forgot to turn your air recirculate lever on? These people grew up with that smell in the 60s-2000s and it reminds them of their younger more masculine days. They get less and less of these fumes and their bodies can't handle it due to "exhaust fumes" withdrawal.

[@dalebuckland5290]

TradeAlong 99 I'm a lover of all vehicles, customs, hotrod anything with a big v8, fast bikes and all that, equally for some things I can see the point to things like your project which removes local pollution is going to be cheaper to run and removes the need for Dino juice for the daily meaning the planets supply lasts longer to enjoy the v8 weekend fun.

[@DougHNuts-ee3vn]

At some point it's going to be a privilege to own and drive a V8 so hopefully they will tax it higher. These days they charge under $20 for a vehicle inspection after it's so old...even though it spews blue smoke everywhere! What kind of idiots make these laws~

[@DougHNuts-ee3vn]

Hey I like riding my horse in the city and letting it shit on people's car hoods at the traffic lights. Nothing like the smell of good ole horse shit in the hot summer afternoons.

[@dalebuckland5290]

TradeAlong 99 I guess this is just an American problem? Here in the UK If you have a pre 2000 big engine annual vehicle tax is about 300 dollars post 2000 its done on emissions which has changed over the last 18 years, so now a 2018 v8, road taxation works out about 1500 dollars a year! Plus fuel here is something like 2 dollars a litre, so you can see why an electric something would be advantageous!

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant! Well done

nice. The perfect stealth assault vehicle

[@DougHNuts-ee3vn]

Why when you have this crazy bad ass torque that will out-pull 2 regular ATVs?

[@MehulKamdar]

I have several motorcycles, and a CanAm Spyder, and I love all of them. If you launch in the US, I would like to buy a Street Quad from you. Don't have any electric vehicles, and this looks great!

[@sammiepeanutbutter8245]

Didn’t realize how loud tires and bearings are.

[@E-Streetquad]

It's actually mostly the chain that you hear while riding it and a little bit the tires. It's definately more pronounced on the onboard video's though.

[@AndyMatrix]

I love this atv, nice work man, can we have some spec? how big is the motor in kw? how many volts battery are using ,amp/h , what range can you get? I want to start a project like this with in wheel electric motor ,5kw on each wheel and install a 84volt 100amp/h LITHIUM battery. i want 60km/h max speed and 200km range(plus50km reserv). any chance i can reach that?

[@E-Streetquad]

Thanks! The specs are below. 25,4 kW PMDC motor (3700 RPM, 65 Nm) Battery pack 76,8 V 60 Ah Geared for max speed of about 98 km/h Range is about 50 km max, unfortunately no more room for more or bigger batteries right now. I don't think 200 km is possible with the batterypack you want to use. Main reason why the range is rather low on quad bikes is because of the rather huge wind resistance. With a max speed of 60 it should be better though but I think you'll get around 100-120 km range with that battery pack and motors. It's pretty hard to fit a big battery pack in a quad bike and It's probably still going to take a while before we get batteries that are a lot smaller or can store more energy for the same dimensions. I'm kind of waiting for that myself since I'm not fully satisfied with the range I have right now.

[@patrickmckowen2999]

Very nice - yes a nice aerodynamic wind breaker would help move the wind around the flat human upper body - and some thinner tires would help some as well Cheers

[@dignitas1980]

Great project! What`s the cost for the electric motor, batterie and other modifications?

[@Dj2loaded]

Where did you buy it from

[@gioilacq9902]

That is insane

[@kyandcastro7094]

selling?

[@frankz1125]

It rides beautifully. How big is the motor?

[@DaddyTheTechnition]

How far will it go on a charge and how long does it take to charge?

[@imxlr8tin]

love it, great job!!!!

[@tjacksondolph4026]

2:55 Beautiful..that torque must be gut wrenching! You did one heck of a build man, I can tell you dumped some $$ into her. SALUTE! What’s the final cost, and If you had it to do over again would you just go gas?

[@E-Streetquad]

Yep, the instant torque feels really amazing when riding it. It's no Tesla performance but definately feels much quicker than with the original 250cc engine that was in there. As this was my first ever conversion I indeed did spend a little bit more than I really wanted to, just to make it look as good as it possibly could. If I made another one, it would be made a lot cheaper for sure. ;) Cost was for the quad bike itself and the complete conversion with all the needed parts was over 10k euro to give you an idea. Batteries, motor and controller cost a lot of money, especially if you want to have it road legal in the Netherlands. It could definately be done for below 10k though when produced in numbers, and even lower if it doesn't have to be road legal, or just in another country. It's really difficult to get conversions like these road legal in the Netherlands unfortunately. As for your questions about just going gas.. I will never go back to gas again. :) And my main reason isn't because it's better for the environment or anything like that, it's just that electric motors can push out so much more power and torque while being much more efficient. Much cheaper to keep running as well and no problems during or after the winter to get it started. ;)

[@tjacksondolph4026]

Oh wow street legal? That’s crazy you can ride it on regular roads and not be pulled over. That’s sick I’d use it for everything, but in the US you’d need anti theft/gps tracking that beaut would get JACKED if left outside.

[@E-Streetquad]

@@tjacksondolph4026 It's no different here sadly, quad bikes get stolen often. Having a GPS tracker is a good idea here as well. ;) Just have to make sure it's always parked inside somewhere or you have to stay very close to it at all times. :)

Now who in their right mind would say no to that? It looks amazing!!! I love electric vehicles!!!!unfortunately I expect the gov. And powers that be will make us pay through the teeth for it. I anticipate battery tech... Will me sold in small advancements like they do with electronics....so aggravating that they must make things crazy expensive pretending like it's all cutting edge... When tesla had free energy for the whole planet... We need to stand together and do something about that!!!! Great vid btw!!! Keep it up guys!!! I so wish common men and women stood together against crazy big brother!! World could become what it was meant to!!!!

[@russell7848]

Tesla never had free energy. Tesla had a wireless power grid

[@videojockeysword]

It's SO funny that we have all these genius develpers on KZbin, but NO ONE will manufacture their ideas...not to mention they have to buy all their parts "overseas"...

Wow, I haven't seen these "Koch" talking points yet!

[@wizardrhyme9597]

Well you're definitely not a (developer).

[@765UHJYEU65]

Got any estimate on the cost of making this beast?

[@Alphalemeilleur]

what model is this ??

[@E-Streetquad]

Bit late replying but in case you still want to know, the base is a Jinling JLA 21-B from China. While it still has the looks of it it doesn't really share much else. ;) Obviously the electric drivetrain you can't buy from them, I converted it myself. Also made some changes to the chassis itself, new better quality bearings, bushings and tyres. The chinese ones are not good at all. Also removed the complete electric harness and made my own. Rest of the chassis is pretty good though, frame not perfect but decent enough, good adjustable suspension and pretty cool looking lights. :)

[@tomaszciesielski1796]

[@faustinpippin9208]

Its rly only 13Kw?

[@jasmijnariel]

When electric stuff gets gears, the world will be endless 🤣

[@E-Streetquad]

Electric motor doesn't need gears if that's what you mean, there's more than enough torque to just use one gear. Using a gearbox would actually slow you down then unless you use a CVT.

[@jasmijnariel]

@@E-Streetquad imagine a second gear kicking in at 100mph, and a 3th at 200mph ... like i said, if the motor is strong enough this could be endless

[@jasmijnariel]

@@E-Streetquad an electric motor is limited in rpm... that is a limit a motor can take, even electic ones

[@vambreace]

how much kw is the motor!?.

[@E-Streetquad]

+vambreace It's an LMC LEM-200 D127, 12.5 kW continuous and 25 kW max (for 30 sec or so with active cooling). It has plenty of power for a quad bike. Without a gearbox it probably has compareable performance to 250-300 cc petrol engine, except for the instant torque ofcourse. :)

[@vambreace]

+E-Streetquad i was thinking the same about the kw the aceleration is quick!. online there has a vendor wihich have liquid cooled brushless electric motors over 10kw for ev conversions. i cant remember now but if i remember i will send you the website address if you are intered. thanks for your repply!

It's not sad at all when you ride or drive an electric vehicle. It's so much fun! Also much less noise for your neighbours, they'll be happier too. :) I always loved loud exhausts as well but right now I can say that I don't miss it at all.

[@schwarz404]

very cool :-)

[@dalesmth1]

When a mobility scooter and a Power Wheels has a child... Honestly. That was like watching the paint dry.

[@E-Streetquad]

Honestly, it has a little bit more power than that. ;) Might be a bit boring for you to watch but it's so much fun riding it. It's actually faster than most cars you see on the road these days.

[@janaaj1an889]

Weird perspective, no view of rider and operation of controls.

[@reggiexp69]

ow is that one of those chinees street quad things? for some reason i find them still ugly.... cool but ugly

[@E-Streetquad]

It started as one yes, only the frame and fenders are still chinese now pretty much. ;) Rest of the quad bike is no longer chinese. Pretty much all components have been swapped out, even the bearings and bushings. And well, obiously the Loncin engine is gone. :) I guess I'll just go with cool. :P

[@reggiexp69]

@@E-Streetquad hahahahh true, its really cool. eletric quad is cool. and wish they made eletric ones. just to see how it compares to a engine quad. i guess battery are more heavy, then a stock 450 or 700cc quad. if you want the same power. anyway maybe some day we will see eletric quads. till then you are the only one almost with one (atleast that shows the hole quad found some other video but no explanation nothing just a quick ride video...)

[@E-Streetquad]

@@reggiexp69 There's a few other electric quad bikes around, most of them are 4x4 though, no real sport quad bikes. But you're right, can't really find much info on those, bit of a shame. With the battery pack, motor, controller and charger my quad bike is indeed quite a bit heavier than before with the 250cc engine (188kg vs 273kg) to have around the same power, maybe a bit more. Weight isn't really that much of an issue if you're able to keep the weight as low as possible. At least for handling. For acceleration you do need a bit more torque. The controller and batteries are actually capable of delivering much more power, just the motor and some other small components limit the power output. There just weren't any better small motors out there back when I did this project. Right now, you can get one with pretty much 2-3 times as much power output for about the same size. I might upgrade at some point. I'm sure we'll see some more electric quad bikes in the near future, especially when Tesla will release their Cyberquad to go with their Cybertruck. ;)

[@reggiexp69]

@@E-Streetquad yeah i mean i love my triton 450 quad but those eletric ones seems like a great fun toy. if its made by a big company it could have insane torque. btw how much range you got on it? cause like my 300cc quad and my 450cc do like 1L a 10km. i would guess its not more then 100-120km on a full tank. my 300cc had a 9L tank i think and my 450 a 12L ish. i think eletric you are not far away from that. but yeah lets hope time will show us some great eletric quads. i saw one site where a dude converts quads in to eletric. like raptor type race quads but more for kids and adults. but its like a 7000€ i think(i forgot). and its are small quads.

[@jasmijnariel]

A topcase/box on a quad! *facepalm*

[@E-Streetquad]

Why? Is this weird for you to see? Many quad bikes actually have this. Mine is just not used for storing items or an helmet. ;)
