The kit consists of a [bolt-on solution](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pikaboost-2-lite), which only needs to have the crank shaft replaced with the gearbox and the rest of the driveline kept in place. This keeps the riding experience quite similar to the original and will vary from bike to bike, depending on the model and specs. The LM Creations BMW Electric Conversion Kit is presently available with a 4.3kW battery pack rated for 80km of range, but additional options are expected in the future. The kit is compatible for use with all R-series bikes constructed between 1969 and 1995. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 12% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Electric Motorcycle Conversion Kits:** The development of more comprehensive and versatile aftermarket electric motorcycle conversion kits. - **Retrofitting Motorcycle Kits:** The emergence of retrofitting kits as an innovative solution for extending the lifespan of traditional combustion-engine motorcycles. - **Sustainable Transportation:** The adoption of sustainable transportation solutions through retrofitting legacy options with more energy-efficient engines. ### Who This Affects Most - **Motorcycle Manufacturing:** Opportunities for motorcycle manufacturers to partner with companies like LM Creations to provide more energy-efficient and sustainable product lines for customers. - **Aftermarket Motorcycle Parts and Accessories:** The potential for increased demand for electric conversion kits amongst bike enthusiasts who wish to upgrade their existing motorcycles. - **Electric Vehicle Industry:** The continued growth of the electric vehicle industry and the potential for more innovative, retrofitting solutions to be developed amid growing demand for more sustainable mobility options. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Powerful Aftermarket eBike Motors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wheel-conversion-kit.md) - [Urban-Centric Electric Motorcycles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ce-02.md) - [Luxury Electric Bike Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bmw-ce-02.md) - [Customizable E-Bike Conversion Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/byqee-e-bike-conversion.md) - [Electric Bike Conversion Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boost.md) - [E-Bike Conversion Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skarper-system.md) - [Widely-Compatible Bike Conversion Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swytch-go.md) - [E-Bike Conversion Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyc-photon.md) - [Crowdfunded E-Bike Converters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pikaboost.md)
