Abstract
Motorcycle is a vehicle that is popular among people in the world, including the people in Malaysia. Excessive fuel consumption from vehicles such as motorcycles can cause air pollution to the environment. Therefore to solve this problem then arises as an idea to create a green vehicles called "Electric Motorcycles". A study conducted to identify the electric motorcycle speed and the performance of the battery power from motorcycle. Electric motorcycle are built using the scrap motorcycle frame, a hub motor to convert from electrical energy to mechanical energy to rotate the wheel and powered by 48 volt rechargeable batteries. In order to get the result, the experiment should be run to get the actual result. Firstly the final result of velocity test that identified the maximum speed of the electric motorcycle can be produce based on the several weight of rider. The relationship between velocity of electric motorcycle and load of rider is inversely proportional because when the load is increase, the velocity of electric motorcycle is decrease. Besides that, second result is the performance of rechargeable batteries that identified the period of charging batteries and the period of the batteries got exhausted. The maximum voltage can be store is approximately 55V. The battery need 1 hour to fully charge from 45V to 55V. The lastly is the power consumption to charging the battery that also involve of monthly electrical bill. The user only can spend around RM3 to RM4 per monthly for charging the battery every day for 5 hours to move the electric motorcycle around 50km. The project objective is achieved to analyse the performance of electric motorcycle and also to determine the maximum capacity of battery for long distance travel.
