The Effect of Speed Variation and Speed Control on the Energy Consumption of a Converted Electric Motorcycle Using Fixed Belt Transmission.
Abstract
Indon esia produ ces 2.4 billion tons of CO₂ p er year , with th e transportation s ector b eing a signifi cant
contributor to emissions. To reduce pollution, gasoline motorcycles are being converted into electric
motorcycles. This research analyzes the impact of using Fixed Belt Transmission on converted electric
motorcycles. Tests were conducted on a 2006 Mio Sporty motorcycle that had been fitted with a Fixed Belt
Transmission to replace the CVT. Static tests were performed at three speeds and with two speed con trol modes.
The results show that speed control mode two is more energy-efficient than speed control mode one, with an
energy consumption difference of 0,001 kWh at each speed. The Fixed Belt Transmission also reduced vibrations
and noise compared to the previous CVT system.
