Battery selection for the hybrid motorcyle

You've kind of missed the point and the direction of the thread.

The remit is to design a hybrid drive system for a bike, that's the focus, not the bike itself. The bike, beyond some very basic parameters, is irrelevant.

The first thing the OP should do is define a realistic scope for his project.
A feasibility study is the next step.

this!
lol, I was trying to help him do this!

I realise you are enthusiastic, and are trying to apply what you have learned to help, but in this case we need to take it one step at a time.

The first step before any project, is scope and feasibility. This is done before all projects in the engineering world. It's basically the same as a literature review in Science.

The OP should begin scouring the interwebs and technical journals/magazines. For any information related to hybrid bikes. Futher to this, he needs to define the scope of his project. This involves him sitting down, and estimating what he is realistically going to be able to achieve with the time and resources available. It's better to a good job with a smaller scope, than a poor job by being overly ambitious.

If he can't satisfy the "hybrid portion" of his project, the tires won't matter.

I am sure any tire he might need is already being manufactured.

What is not easily found on the market is the subject of his original post.

Can nickel metal hydride battery be used...

To keep your cost down consider a lead acid AGM battery. Compact and light. Takes a very high amp charge. Select one designed for high cranking amps.
