Reckon it would be a "hybrid" then and still need DVLC's blessing in the UK :rolleyes1:

Beni, I'm talking about an ELECTRIC MOTOR that you might get in one of these:

ZMC ok, that means thay are not registered in China?
Even if so, did you mean it is possible to drive so many km with elektro motorcycle? I think the best idea is to make such trip with a normal motorcycle (gasoline) or trike with gasoline engine.
How far you can go on elektricity in a day 50km? 100km?
ebikes with lead acid batteries ebike ~50km, or with lithium batteries possibly ~90km - all dependent on multiple factors e.g. gradients encountered, how much WOT is applied, electric hub, quality of components, and state of the batteries, amongst others...
Method one...
Chinese gas-powered 3 wheeler
Attachment 16708
Bad idea...they handle like crap and are slow and heavy, good for city deliveries only.... noisy and max 60 kms, it will take 3 times longer to get there compared to a 125cc bike. They are road legal and possible to be registered and insured on the plus side. You could try putting an aluminum bed on it and try to customize one, but it wouldn't help that much.
Method 2...
Chinese electric 3 wheeled vehicle
Attachment 16709
These are for old people to take their grandchildren to school or do small local deliveries, they are fairly heavy for the vehicle they are, underpowered and generally hopeless 20km/h if you're lucky, probably wouldn't make it out of the province, let alone China but would be road legal without a plate as they are most likely around 200w.
Method 3
Get a three wheeled bicycle and retrofit this or something like it.
Attachment 16710
Longer range and lighter and more reliable than option 2. But you still aren't going to be going quicker than 20km/h so see you in Europe in 6 months or more.
Or just go on YBR125s, you'll be glad you did.
