I have 60-70% 05 classic motorcycle chasis except motor .Bought the frame thinking of building a electric motorcycle given that the gigantic frame could hold marine flooded batteries with some modifications.Looking for suggestions to source the DC motor( The only kit I could find online was D&D motors and pretty skeptical about the brush motor durability /performance)

Looking to build a fun motorcycle home to office just around 5/6 miles everyday and in city so top speed isnt important.Have been looking at diesel motors too,was looking at kawasaki mule diesel engine...any other suggestions.Think shaft drive could be a limiting factor on the powertrain that can be used
Budget is around $1500
Has any one modified R3 rear drive to belt drive.
Also,am looking for Triple tree, final drive and front rim/tire.
