Motorbikes Sale

I'm trying to locate a company named BMC, which makes electric motors. How do I find them? You can view their product here http://www.electric-bikes.com/betterbikes/bmc.html. I have a complaint, but have no direct access to the company.

buying direct from china where can i buy dirent from china an electric bike conversion kit?

how efficient are epicyclic (planetary) gearboxes when not coupled to torque converters? Just a thing that's been knocking round in my head... I'm gonna build myself a little electric car someday when I have the cash and free time (hopefully not long!), and the characteristics of an electric motor are pretty good compared to your average petrol/diesel fuelled one (very even, wide power band, loads of torque), but still not entirely suited to road use without some kind of gearing. What seems most suitable is a fairly wide-ratio epicyclic setup, 2 or 3 speed, such as that used in the Ford Model T, which would offer a very simple, robust, lightweight setup with smooth automated shifting. However, of course, these setups have a poor reputation as regards efficiency and transmission losses because they're usually coupled to a fluid torque converter (slushbox). I do know that modern Auto's have a lockup mode in 3rd gear & above, which improves efficiency, but how does the raw gearset compare to e.g. a manual gearbox, reinforced bike chain, direct drive etc? Anyone know? :-)

CVT and regenerative braking? I'm working on plans for an electric motorcycle conversion. I'd like to do a Continuously Variable Transmission in order to maximize battery power and speed. The bike is shaft-driven, which makes it particularly difficult to change gear ratios in any direct drive manner, but also makes it good for a CVT. However, I'm wondering what the effect of a CVT is on regenerative braking? More effective? Less effective? No effect? Also, any ideas for locating/salvaging and appropriate CVT? The ones I'm familiar with are from 90's Honda Civics, and I'm not sure it's feasible to try to adapt. Thanks!

I am madly in love with my chemistry professor, should I tell him? When I first saw him 2 years ago, my world stopped as this immediate rush of radiant energy absorbed through by body. I felt the high voltage of electric shock all over me, and instantly became numb. He stood tall, lean, with a killer smile and those ever so captivating eyes. He simply had me at "Hello", and took my breath away, I was in love at first sight. He was sexy, very manly and was my soon to be chemistry professor. From that moment on, I knew trouble was headed my way. In class, I couldn't help but glaze into his gorgeous eyes and daydream about being alone with him, snuggled in his arms. It was very hard for me to focus in class because I couldn't help but drool over him. He is the epitome of the perfect man; so intelligent, confident, strict, passionate, successful, etc., depicted all the traits and of the perfect man. He even rides a bike to school, I mean I've imagined how hot he would look on it. The truth is, I swear he is just as attracted to me as I am to him. Every time I would go to his office hours he would speak to me differently than he would to any other student. He even told me that he thinks I am very beautiful, especially my eyes. All I said in return was a measly, "thank you, you're so nice". I was so shocked because I couldn't believe it was real. It was too good to be true, was it the law of attraction? I don't know what it was but I do know that I blew it. No man has ever made me feel this way. I knew I had to find reasons to go back and talk to him, so every time I'd go back, I would end up making a fool of myself. When I would look at him, he would steal my words, and I would stand speechless with an empty look on my face. I would end up talking about something random, and later hope he didn't think that I wasted his time with my idle chats. I felt as if I was going around in circles. I wanted to tell him that I am very attracted to him and am finding reasons just to see him, but I didn't want him to think I am a stalker and freak him out. After many failed attempts in his office, I decided to stay away from him so he wont think I am the silly blonde girl that goes into his office asking questions all the time about things she can easily google. It was so hard for me to go into his office with real chemistry related questions since I was not going to b able to focus and understand. I hope you guys don't think I'm a weirdo or psycho because I am not. This has never happened to me before, and I don't act this way any one. Its as if he put a spell on me. I gave it a few more tries by going to his office, and yet again he began to compliment me and this time arouse me. He started talking about sex and the vagina using hand selected verbiage that was purposely intended to turn on and stimulate my sex hormones. He chose his words very carefully and was indirectly direct which was hard for me to go ahead and take this to a more personal level. Then to my luck, we were suddenly disturbed by another student which upset me very much. To shorten a much longer story, lol, I need help to confess my true feelings. I know he has feeling for me too since he always stares at me in class more than any one else and gives me compliments. I have even caught him checking me out many times. He just tries not to make it obvious, but I can tell. WHAT SHOULD I DO? I AM GOING CRAZY, I MUST TELL HIM. I KNOW HE ISN'T STUPID AND HAS SENSED IT FROM THE WAY I SMILE AT HIS JOKES AND MUMBLE AND SHAKE WHILE CONVERSING WITH HIM. PLEASE ANY ADVICE WILL GREATLY BE APPRECIATED. BY THE WAY, I AM 24 AND HE MUST BE 45 AND MARRIED. BUT IF HE DOESN'T CARE, WHY SHOULD I? YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE, SO MAKE YOUR OWN HAPPINESS. HOWEVER, I STILL AM IN DIRE NEED FOR ADVICE. I feel as though he seduced me and continues to seduce me, enjoys it, provokes me, and gets pleasure out of my suffering. The reason I say that is because he flirts with me, but is never blunt and honest with me about his feelings too. I know they must be mutual, my gut tells me and his remarks have proved it to be. I wish I could tell him how much I think about him and how he makes my day with his charming ways and that I just want to spend some time with him. I want my fantasy into reality. Oh and I also have a boyfriend, but I didnt choose to feel this way toward another man... HELP!!!!!

'99 vmax-why is ignition turning over when attempting to fasten 2nd terminal? bike was garaged and not run for about 1 year and paid to have bike brought back to "riding" condition (carb's cleaned,etc.) took for ride a few days later without incident. now, about 1 month later, no electric action when trying to start. i thought "maybe battery?" purchased new battery and prepared as directed for use (fluids and additional charge before install). hooked everything back up and fastened 1 terminal. while attempting to fasten other terminal, few sparks and then the ignition is turning over without keys in the ignition and nothing else on the bike that would draw power from the battery (everything off). i would probably classify myself as "mechanically challenged" but i didn't think that there would be a whole lot of skill required for this task. i've been dying to ride and this has been 1 bundle of frustration. PLEASE HELP!! that would be "2nd terminal" on new battery (motorcycle)
