    1st gen mini on craigslist converted to electric

    84 Honda Electric VF500 Interceptor

    I wonder how that thing handles with the battery lookin thing hanging off the side?

    Here's a pic (at least until the add runs out or is pulled)

    I dont think handling is an issue as it goes very slow and I doubt it pulls very hard, might want to stay horizontal on that bad boy.

    Good looking bike tho, I like the idea of that rather then the bike just going to waste.

    I mean theoretically an electric motor should pull harder but a 20 mile range really sucks.
