Great write up! Those led’s look so sick. You inspired me to incorporate them in my sportster build.

In honor of this build being nominated for BOTY, here’s some footage of me practicing racing on the board at a go-kart track:

Small update:
- Got Metr CAN + LTE installed with the always-on 5V buck converter. Seems to be drawing about 7% of the battery per day, so I really gotta keep an eye on this board
- Put a beefy (possibly too beefy but too late) 12V5A buck for the lights
- Forgot to take the airtag out
- Redid the kapton over the battery, hot-glued and taped down small wires in place.
- Applied Butyl tape, and put in all the enclosure bolts
More pics to come when it’s out in the real world. Apart from missing front lights, this board is now waterproof and fully complete!
