I am interested in the electric motorcycle conversion kit<\/a> you offer. I am electrifying an old Kawasaki KE 125 (1976) and would require the fitting electric hub engine for the rear wheel and all other components (controller, battery, brake). Before I can order, I have a few questions:<\/p>\n

I would need a 18inch rim (at least 2.5inch wide as shown in one photon in this kit https:\/\/www.leafbike.com\/products\/electric-motorcycle-kit\/1.6-18-inch-48v-52v-1500w-rear-electric-motorcycle-motor-kit-1275.html?VariantsId=10576 , but it could also be wider as there was a 2.75 inch rim installed before). However, as for the hub motor, I would like to have a 2000W motor with max speed 50mph as described here for a 16inch rim https:\/\/www.leafbike.com\/products\/electric-motorcycle-kit\/1.85-16-inch-48v-52v-2000w-rear-electric-motorcycle-motor-kit-1272.html?VariantsId=10413. Is that possible?<\/p>\n

Do you have a faster hub motor<\/a> in a motorcycle kit too?<\/p>\n

The drop out would need to be 215 mm. I measured 200mm between the swing arms (inside to Inside distance) and 215mm at the outside (outside to outside distance). Is that possible? Or is there another way to adjust it?<\/p>\n

I assume that when buying the kit, this means that I only have to install it but the rest fits together already?<\/p>\n

How much more would be to get the color display LB08HU instead of the standard LCD-S830?<\/p>\n

In addition, I would need the disk brake to be mounted on the left side with your motor flange (https:\/\/www.leafbike.com\/products\/electric-bike-parts\/motorcycle-disk-brake-pads-rotor-flange-1252.html) such that I assume that the cable location should be on the left?!<\/p>\n

I would also order the disk brake set for motorcycles that you offer (https:\/\/www.leafbike.com\/products\/electric-bike-parts\/180mm-motorcycle-disc-brake-1056.html) and a battery.
\nFor the battery, I am wondering how much of a difference the 52V (https:\/\/www.leafbike.com\/products\/lithium-battery\/52v-20ah-lithium-battery-1224.html ) compared to the 48V makes in terms of performance of the hub engine?<\/p>\n

How much would cost in total incl. shipping?
\nThe shipping would be to Finland. How does it work with the customs? Do you have any information and experience with shipping it to the EU?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
