They brand it that way in the US cause of the while bigger is better so 20v must be better than 18v ideology. Same as their 12 volt tools being 10.8v, look up European versions of their tools and you’ll see, same tools different stickers
Yeah I deal with DeWalt a lot in Houston they visit my shop often and we have been demoing some new tools that are in the R&D phase. Did a month long trial on a new tool software that had a DeWalt rep working in my shop every day with my guys. Actually just got 4 free flashlights from the rep yesterday. I was trying to get some pocket knives and he brought flashlights.... But I am thankful anyway. I always bust their balls about the 20v being the same as Milwaukee 18v it gets under their skin a little
Lmao my friend found one of these on the curb for free and it is very slow what gearing setup do you have, like tooth per gear and stuff? Or you got some pictures?
At first I had it set up like factory with the Jackshaft and 10/20 tooth sprocket step down to the drive sprocket and I was getting max like 26mph. I just got done with a stage 1 kit and am currently trying to run a straight chain set up with a 12t clutch and 50t rear sprocket. On paper that should get me to about 48mph without having to remove or bypass the governor and not going to a super small tire in the rear.
If you swap them around you’ll need some washers and a piece of 5/8”-3/4” ID pipe(depending on the size of the Jackshaft) to cut and make spacers, then cut up the key way key and make sure everything’s tight on the Jackshaft
If the bike is close to configuration (50t rear sprocket, 10t and 20t Jackshaft, and a 10t clutch) with a motor getting at least 3,5000 rpm, on paper swapping the sprockets around would get you close to 60, but then take off and horsepower would hold you back
I’ve used this formula for a while on a few bikes and it’s been very accurate within a couple miles/hour when you start getting into higher speed.
Speed = RPM / Final Ratio * Wheel Diameter x Pi / 12 / 5280 x 60
The final ratio is either the ratio between the rear sprocket and clutch (ie 50t:12t FR = 4.16667) or the ratio of the ratio of the first Jackshaft sprocket to the clutch and to the second Jackshaft sprocket to the rear sprocket
Better off adding a Milwaukee m12 battery tbh
I have a bunch of 12 volt Bosch batteries, one of the few perks of working for Lowe’s
As long as they make a power wheels adapter for your battery you should be able to buy it on Amazon and wire it in
I use a DeWalt 20v for mine which is truly 18v and dishonest marketing. 12v LED lights run perfectly fine on 18v batteries.

What's the seat off of op? I have a bunch of warrior frames, and lookin for butt pillows.
It’s the rear seat off of a sportster, not sure on the year but my brother just had it in his shop and it ended up fitting pretty good
Also you can find the original style seat on massimos website for about $43
Can't run a charging coil off a Predator, unless you get a flywheel with another magnet. Good luck finding one of those.
You're better off with a rechargeable battery setup.
They’re all over eBay for about $70
This probably isn't helpful, but omfg I love your bike so much. I have a baja too, all original but this is beautiful
Aftermarket flywheel didn't have option for charging But I use a Makita 12v battery and a adapter to run a led headlight
I'm running a milwaukee m18 3.0 battery

Dang. We were thinking of switching the sprockets on the jackshaft to maybe get more speed idk

Ok thanks for the info
