(12/5/2005)

Electric Ninja from Bidwell DesignBidwell Design’s latest electric motorcycle plans are ideal for those inclined to electrify a motorcycle with a minimum amount of fuss. The plans clearly show how to build this electric motorcycle in your garage using nothing more than hand tools. There's no need to worry about welding or machining. Just follow the instructions and you'll be good to go!

“Secrets of El Ninja” does a complete El Ninja conversion process with drawing, steps, and photos. The plans clearly explain electric motorcycle technology as well as where to purchase electric components. “Secrets of El Ninja” walks you through the conversion process and explains the nature of design, cost, and performance tradeoffs. It helps you find the right donor gas motorcycle and shows you how to easily license and maintain your electric motorcycle.

Electric motorcycles are excellent around-town vehicles. They are especially easy to ride because they require no clutching or shifting. Thanks to the simplicity and power of modern electric vehicle technology you can forget about oil changes, fouled sparkplugs, and noxious petrol.

Cruising past gas stations is definitely part of the fun, and you’ll be able to cruise at one-third the cost of a gas bike.

The plans describe how to build various configurations of El Ninja with top speeds ranging from 30 to 70MPH. For example, the 72V version has a top speed of 60 to 70 MPH with a 41 mile range in stop and go driving. Electric parts necessary for that version would cost about $1685.
