i have a golf cart whose motor and controller i intend to use for my project,i am designing a electric bike using these components,the first obvious problem i am facing is the big heavy lead acid battery pack,the cart originally has a 48V battery pack with 6 number of 8V 200Ah batteries,can i replace these with smaller lithium-ion batteries(4 number of 12V 100Ah)?i know i cannot use the same charger from the golf cart,i will have to make another charger for the li-ioin batteries,but can i use the li-ion battery pack in this way instead of the lead-acid battery pack?

Ok looked at your drawing, thought about your idea and NO
don't want to pop you bubble but motor is incorrect for motor cycle setup your batteries are mounted to high for good weight distribution.
look here www.electricmotorsport.com they have complete packages for motor cycles.
the batteries you want to use come in 3.2 volt cells, and the cart motor is about 3 times longer than it should be. now a 3 wheeler would work.Updated by gaminde; January 28, 2012, 11:55 AM. -
