I've seen this done a couple times over the years, but never had a close look at one before.
They guy built it himself, using an off-the-shelf tail rack (for a top box), and the top of a RockyMounts rack.

Battery = ?, but you must have the longest rural driveway in the World.
50miles, on lowest level assist, flatish terrain, EU 20kph on a 4 year old battery in a 31-ish pound bike. One's mileage may vary based on how much pedaling the cyclist prefers. Added another battery (not in pic) to essentially double the distance.

I think it needs a chopper fork, with the longest front center in cycling history.

Sorry, no, X2. Wife in Colorado, yesterday I was in Hog Heaven.
Did you ride Bob's vintage ride in North Bend on Sat 7/27?
edit: I need replacements, but knees not on the list.
