All

I have built 2 of these with motor kits from Electro. Electro makes it a plug and ride scenario. I have done Hondas and the bikes are so fun to ride. I take mine to the track and have a track in my neighborhood I can ride after work. My ICE bike is well setup and I am able to ride both but not at my neighbor's track.

That's great work and a great possibility to convert a broken bike. Above all it looks super fun to ride. Some like it and some don't, that's life. Pl ease add some warning to your post for the sake of readers whose manliness is so delicate and fragile that they need a combustion engine to feel like a man. They may feel threatened by the mere thought of riding an electric bike and be all weird about it, be nice and spare them this torment.

Pro Circuit, TLD, Glen Helen (Thursday is normally the day the pro's practice, not sure about SX though) Pala is between SD and Anaheim. Chaparral is fun to check out if you have time to burn. There's a Carlsbad memorial that overlooks where the old track was in Carlsbad, pretty boring (and depressing if you used to race there) but it's something moto orientated if you're looking for stuff to see, and it's close to the 5 freeway. Cahuilla Creek is a cool track to check out, plus there's a hotel and casino a couple miles away, you didn't say...

Having built a DIY electric, One thing is certain. It is much easier to become a better technical rider on one. Once the technique is in ingrained in muscle memory, transferring to an ICE bike lets you improve your speed at a faster rate. In my opinion, transferring from an 85 to a full size bike will make for less injury for smaller riders because of the ease of riding. After becoming accustomed to the weight, with better technique, less injury seems obvious..

If they are so "idiot proof" and easy to ride why dont you hop on one and see if you can beat a LL level 85 rider? You can be a hero! I bet you still cant beat the kid wining c class at your local tracks even if he rides a busted piece of shit 250f from 2012. God you guys act like these bikes are going to turn a common man into a fucking professional. There are advantages, but the other 1000 things that make a rider good (riding IQ, body positioning, etc) still have to be present...

Man, I would like to try a little bit of whatever you are smoking. Gear boxes on e bikes because missed shifts and bad gear selection are an important part of racing? That makes about as much sense as an argument against disk brakes would have 30 years ago, or how about never having allowed safety seats because they discouraged riders from learning proper riding form.
