Default Converting 600 Ninja

I can get a curtis 72v controller for about 250, and a 72v 9hp golf cart motor for about 350. I really, really, like power and the idea of regen. So I am looking at http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...id=p2759.l1259, which means I need a sepex controller. And decent ones you all recommend? I'll be running at 72v. This military motor is supposedly 90% eff, I find that sort of hard to believe tho. I found http://www.kellycontroller.com/shop/...&product_id=98, which has regen, and is re programmable. Any input? One way the bike will run for hours and be somewhat like, the other, will be a tank. Battieries together will be 72v@175AH. Still need to figure out how to charge that mass. Thanks in Advance! Glad I found this site! I go to school at OU here in Norman, but am originally from the Dallas area.

I just realized this should probably be in TECH.

I am using a 72V 400A kelly controller with regen and the Mars ME0709 PM pancake motor . I should get about 19kW peak @ 300A. I've only just started but there are pictures here. I'm hoping for a 60mph top speed and a 0-60 in the 6-7 second range.
