3. Is there any cost estimate in those plans?
And, is a Honda 750 frame/wheel strong enough to support the weight of batteries?

Sounds like a fun project.

5. The online total is between $799 and $1800 excluding the donor bike.
The 750 supports the motor and trans now. I do not expect any problem with the battery weight.
I expect to have to add as side car to carry enough battery power to enable the 80-100 miles Range I need to have.
