I measured the distance between the axles a couple days ago and it fell between the short and long wheelbase numbers. Not sure if that was the correct way to measure it.
Well my batteries arrived yesterday so last evening I started charging batteries one by one on the Cellpro charger. However the evening's activities were interrupted when I found out my wife had a call from Microsoft yesterday and they spent an hour or more "cleaning up" her computer. Obviously a scam. So we were busy cancelling credit cards and scrubbing her computer. Maybe her next computer should be a Mac. She's used PCs for years and normally would not fall for a call like that but she was having some problems and it came at the right moment.
So the schedule (to make the ride) is very tight now, maybe not even practical. I'm going to forge ahead, but the bike may not be ready in time for Saturday's ride.
I have decided to go with 12S Lipo for now. It makes things easier and quicker and reduces some potential problems. I still need to make the wiring harness. It is about 20% complete now. Torque arms to do as well, NordLock washers to install, mounting the controller and throttle and routing wires, connect the batteries and strap them down. Finish charging the batteries individually. Make female-female JST cables 2 each. Test and program the controller and cycle analyst. Mount a mirror. Collect tools and clothing for the ride. Mount a water bottle cage. And a few more things I'm not recalling now.
