Something like this could be fun.
Or maybe just the motor? ?
I guess the Bosch engine is more competent than the controller, so I would keep it, think a new controller is da shit.
I also have an electric trial bike ( https://osetbikes.com) that is converted to lithium batteries (from lead-acid) These are popular to upgrade with other controllers, Kelly etc. because a lihium battery is capable to give an higher output/ a lot more power out than the original controller can handle.
There is a lot to gain in effect and feeling here.
The original setup on my Oset was able to handle 20 amps continuous (Max 30Amps), the new one above 80amps continuous (Max 100Amps) so wheelies is no problems anymore, I want my Soco to handle that way!
The meek acceleration is one of the Soco's biggest shortcomings, compared to most electric cars thats accelerating faster than most cars with combustion engines, Soco seems to be programmed for my grandmother to manage to drive it, at least the Sports mode could give significantly more acceleration, a normal 50cc scooter is sometimes faster!
So a new controller with better output and a fully programmable software there a lot of parameters can be changed.
An Oset controller system is simply built so you replace the entire control system.
Super Soco may be modified according to the y-cable method - you retain original throttel and control (because of all other functions thats are buid in there; display, speed, on/off, alarm, lights) but connect in parallel an extra controller and and trottle with is connected directly to the motor.

Cheaper open source programmable;

An example of an Kelly controller for the Oset electric trial;
Great info Super Honda. I think you’re correct, the controller is the weak link.
It might not be worth trying to program the original controller & to just add a more powerful kelly one instead.
Just learning how to do it properly will take some time....
My last project is to electrify an old trial motorcycle using one of this "standard" electrical kit that can be found everywhere on ebay, aliexpress etc for less than 100€.
It is a cheap way to convert a bike to e-bike, build a go-kart, or convert an old scooter and a good way to learn, you should try!
Now I do not understand exactly what you mean?
Convert any vehicle to electrically - everyone can learn! just start with something simple.
Make it road legal? another question..
Use Google or youtube, a lot of funny project/companys in U.K. as well.
