Hello everyone, I'm glad to have found this forum. I've found a lot of helpful information here. Thank you.
My first engine bike was a 38cc four-stroke built in 2004. Over the years, I've five 80cc two-stroke engines. They're great, but over the past twenty years, I've occasionally missed the benefits of automatic clutching, especially during emergency braking.
I saw some threads discussing the BT80 electric start engine on this forum. I bought one a month ago and installed it last week on my bike, which I've ridden for nine years and has had three engine upgrades.
I remember discussing the power output of this engine. Since my bike has a mid-mounted motor as a secondary boost for climbing and a reverse-mounted front wheel drum motor for regenerative charging, the circuitry displays the power output. Therefore, I simply connected the BT80's 14.5V output to the existing boost circuit. The attached image shows the results. Since I'm still in the break-in phase, I didn't test it at full power.
After 32km/h, the input was about 70 watts, and at idle about 20 watts, much higher than I expected. This reminds me to disconnect the generator circuit when not necessary.
I'm sorry that my English is not so fluent. I am from Taiwan and I am happy to join this forum. I hope this test can make some contribution.
