The Stinger

Hey all
Thought you might like to take a look at the Stinger. Built for a 72 volt mid-bike, I'm hoping she'll make me proud. This will be going into the Yellowjacket by Matt and Shawn for the Battery Beach Burnout on Jan. 20 / 21 / 06. This motor started out as a 24 volt Baker pallet jack motor and was date coded Oct. 1966. So at the ripe age of 40 she gets to retire in Florida. I actually used parts from 4 different motor types to create this motor. Come on inside and take a peek.

This shows a motor of how it began in life and the other shows how I modded it to trim some weight off.

This is the final shell I came up with. I trimmed down the housing diameter to lighten it up and give it that smooth housing look. I took it down only as far as the lowest casting marks.
