I saw 2003 CR250 frame with an EV swap out at Swan a month ago.  The guy was working on a kit to sell. I think we'll start seeing a lot of this.

I'm here for it. Not scared of electric. There's something there performance wise and noise reduction that can contribute to more 2 wheeled fun.

I went to the local flat track races last fall. In the peewee ATV class there was some electricians kid absolutely hauling ass on an E swapped mini quad. The little guy was setting laptimes like 450 quads, it is downright scary what those can put out.

It’s a 92 or later kx80 big wheel or kx100. The 91 didn’t have usd forks
