It doesn't take much of a reason for you to start tinkering. Cool idea. I love the total disregard of any lane discipline in the riding section.

Just go up and down the road, any lane, it is fine no problem.

Don't know how far away you are going to get with the car battery though but otherwise not a bad idea.

This set-up would allow me to keep the cvt, swing arm and most importantly the fat rear tire. Battery bank replaces the gas tank under floorboards. Borrow a harness from an E Bike and its job done. Am I correct in thinking no more motor oil?

In the go kart world if the electric conversion includes a motor controller, they seem to think that a CVT and the controller tend to be conflicting. They would setup the desired gearing and let the controller handle the varied speeds minus the CVT.
I didn't pick up how this guy in the video did the control portion. By the looks of it, maybe he just shorts bare wires at the handlebar?

In the video he used the crank from the motor as a drive. So I'm guessing that the bearings on the crank would at least need lubrication.
