Swingarm Assembly, Vehicle Including a Swingarm Assembly, and Method of Manufacturing a Swingarm Assembly
18 Jan 24
A swingarm assembly for a two-wheel vehicle includes: a swingarm body including first and second side arms extending in a longitudinal direction and a transverse cross member connected to the first and second side arms, each side arm having a C-shaped cross-section open toward an outer lateral side; and covers attached to the outer lateral sides of the first and second side arms and extending in the longitudinal direction, the covers enclosing at least a portion of the C-shaped cross-section to form enclosed cavities delimited by an inner surface of the side arm and an inner surface of the cover.

Vehicle Controller, Vehicle Including a Vehicle Controller, and Method of Operating a Vehicle
4 May 23
A vehicle, e.g., a two-wheeled electric vehicle, is operable in a low-speed mode, in which the vehicle can be propelled selectively in the forward or reverse direction, at a speed limited to approximately an average person's walking speed, e.g., approximately 3 mph.

Charging System, Vehicle Including a Charging System, and Charging Method
4 May 23
A charging system for an electric vehicle includes: a rechargeable energy storage device adapted to store electrical energy and to supply the stored electrical energy to at least one electric motor of the vehicle to propel the vehicle; a charger adapted to supply electrical energy to the energy storage device according to a selectable power rating of at least two power ratings to charge and/or recharge the energy storage device based on a selected one of power ratings; and a controller adapted to select one of the power ratings of the charger to set the charger to charge and/or recharge the energy storage device based on the selected one of the power ratings.

Turn Signal Cancelation Systems and Methods for Two-wheeled Vehicles
30 Mar 23
In a turn signal cancelation system for a two-wheeled vehicle, a controller is adapted to automatically cancel the turn signal of the vehicle upon: (a) a determined distance traveled by the vehicle after an occurrence of the predetermined operation of the vehicle exceeding a first distance threshold and a determined yaw angle traversed by the vehicle after the occurrence of the predetermined operation of the vehicle exceeding a yaw angle threshold; and (b) the determined distance traveled by the vehicle after the occurrence of the predetermined operation of the vehicle exceeding a second distance threshold, different from the first distance threshold, independent of the determined yaw angle traversed by the vehicle after the occurrence of the predetermined operation of the vehicle.

System and method for maximizing battery capacity while in long term storage
30 Mar 20
When in long term storage, battery degradation is avoided by performing battery charge cycles at a voltage level where a change in the battery's voltage divided by a change in the battery's storage capacity is at a minimum, rather than discharging the battery to its minimum storage capacity and then charging to its maximum storage capacity.
