Hello from Brazil,

I'm about to start my EV-Motorcycle. (just finishing an old project of mine - a Lotus Seven Replica - and also waiting some cash in)

I already decided about main parts and the donor, but once I'm more a wrench head guy I had some doubts. I'm learning electric as quick as I can, but need some insights from the group

Donor: Honda CBR 450 R. I know that isn't too much, but good old bikes are rare and also expensive here (Brazil has a prohibition on import motorcycle and cars during 80's to the end of 90's and the local industry only produced few model during that time 

(the picture is not my one, is just to show the group what model is)

Motor: Will be a AGNI 119 60v

Controler: Kellycontroller KD72401 with regen

Batteries: Unfortunatelly due to Import Taxes I have to start with Lead or Gel Batteries and than upgrade it. There will be a lot of taxes in Motor and Controller already

Well, questions are about Chargers (and forgive me about the basic questions level):

If I get a Zivan, it will fit now and in the future for Lipo cells (using a BMS)?

Starting with 12 V Lead Batteries, I have to have one charger of 60V for the bank or is better to split it? Which charges you suggest?

Does Bank Charger Manager like Quick Charger (link below) worth it?

Thanks in advance, and sorry about any English mistake
