Meet Project Knight Rider.......(Vid and pics)

[Kratos]

First off I want to send a big thanks and shout out to Reggy from TricLed. His products and customer service are second to none! :thumbup: Also thanks to Raw Design for the slip ring design. This project has been a blast to work on, a lot of fun, and most of all I'm proud of it because I DID IT MYSELF. That's the biggest thing. I've never wrenched on anything in my life, no mechanical skills at all, so this project has given me a dear sense of accomplishment. Thanks to any who view and comment on this thread....means a lot to me. I love this forum and all the help you guys have given. :cheers:

I took my bike straight to the police department and told all the officers to come outside and look at it. I said to them if it's illegal here, I'll take it all off. They told me I was fine and that no cop here in MS would mess with me. They also asked me if they could borrow it. :firstplace: All the cops were standing around it drooling begging to ride it. :clap:

Awesome job. I can't wait for my paint job this winter.

I asked first instead of spending the money. then I showed them pictures to verify.

Question: How'd you get power down to the hubs, and then out to the spokes of the wheels?

With a slip ring. The wires from the wheels are connected to a slip ring, and the wire to the battery is connected to a brush pad that allows the slip ring to spin on it.

Dude, those wheels are awesome!
