Electric motor on goped trail ripper quad
ESP Support
To accomplish a 15-20 mph top speed and have hill climbing power a 1000 Watt motor would be needed. For a boost button what I recommend is to have a throttle output Voltage reduction circuit that reduces the throttle Voltage using a resistor and has an override switch to allow full throttle Voltage to the controller for the boost function. This will be much easier to do than to than to make a battery pack that switches from two batteries to three, or three to four. We sell a part that reduces the throttle Voltage and has a connector for a boost button. Its non boost mode can be fully adjusted with a screwdriver so the low speed can be anywhere between a crawl to full speed. It is our item # THR-ADJUSTER2 which is available on this page:
Here is a photo of it.
We may already have a kit that will be suitable for your project and if not then we can make a new version of a kit with all of the parts that you want it to have.

If you find a kit that is close to what you want however you would like a few things changed about it then we can make a new version of the kit for you. Just let us know and we will be glad to help.

Hello, I have recently purchased a couple go ped trail ripper quads that I want to convert to electric. My son weighs about 90 lbs and I weigh about 200 lbs. The karts as is weigh about 80lbs with a 4.5 hp 2 stroke engine. We are looking to ride these karts on a somewhat hilly property. I'm looking for the ability to go 15-20 mph, negotiate the hills and also to have a boost function or button that allows for overvolting during periods where we want to pass each other. I also do not want one kart to be too much faster than the other. I'd have to figure out how to mount the motors etc but could you rig up a system to get this done for me?
