More 3D scans of my ‘64

Practicing scanning technique turned into scanning the whole bike. Here’s a few more photos of the scans I’ve done so far.

Back light

Still trying to find the time to figure out a way to mount this new light or scrap the idea

Practicing 3D scanning the ‘64

Will be designing an under-seat storage box in the near future for the ‘64. It’s an older project that was sidelined.

I thought I might as well practice scanning part of the bike with the Pop 4. My aftermarket front fender scanned cleanly.

My Beachman 64 (circa 2026)

Hi all! Hope everyone enjoying the summer rides out there as much as I am! Got a chance to do a quick photoset of my trusty 64 on the 3rd year of ownership. During first two years I completed most of technical enhancements, so this season I focused mostly of look and aesthetics.

To achieve more polished look I decided to unify the color pallette of the bike to be 3 colored: black/brown/golden. To achieve this I blacked out most of the parts (replaced/wrapped/painted), replaced the turn and rear light (got smoked gray options with better look & finish), cleaned up mess on the dash, masked unwanted colors, replaced stickers and logos and added some stripes to balance the colors. Very happy with the outcome - bike looks and feels much more professional and integral overall.

Got lot of fun working on it as usual. Really hoping to see the Aviator soon to start from scratch 😀

Happy to answer any questions or share more details if anyone is interested. Happy riding everyone! See you on the road!

Range Questions (50 Ah)

Wife and I are loving the bikes, but we're both a little disappointed with the range/battery life. It's not great to feel range anxiety so early in a ride.

We've unlocked the ~55 kph mode so we can keep up with side road traffic when road travel is necessary. I'd guess we're leaning toward the higher end of that speed range most of the time. Here in NL there are also a lot of hills. I try and watch the throttle levels so I can coast as much as possible too. I'm a heavier guy, but my wife is about half my weight and her bike does a little better, but we still have to watch hers too.

I don't see any hard specs on battery range, but it seems 100-110 kms should be achievable with the 50 Ah battery. We've been getting 50-60 kms and I'm coming back with high 60s/low 70s volt ranges when under throttle. I don't know if I have 5 kms left in the tank, or 30 kms. I'm being extra cautious because I don't want to drain the battery far from home. If there's another 20+ kms on tap when in those voltage ranges, I'd be happy with that.

I've also read that the controller shuts the bike down at 64v. Is that when it hits 64v under throttle or while resting? Would it be cutting in and out when close to the end of a charge?

Ah crap...

Got in from a ride late last night and then was up early to go to work, and found my bike moved about 8' with the dust cover off and the charging cable missing. Looked closer and the ignition was popped out, so someone definitely tried to steal it. A neighbour's bike had their cover part way off, so not sure if there was a second person looking at that or if they checked it first before the alarm went off on mine and got scared off. Thankfully I had my Ottolock on the battery compartment so they didn't take that, but that's a crappy way to start a Friday.
