I still believe #1 is not a brushed motor, it may look like it is but I strongly believe it is not. Here is the listing on amazon, described as a 72V 3000w "Brushless" motor...

I believe #1 is not a brushed motor.

I currently have motor #2. These are MY1020 type motor's. #1 is supposedly a newer design and I'm trying to find out if I'll get better gains from the newer design. #1) #2)

Connect the charger up to the battery again to reset the BMS of the battery pack.

Here's the pics:

Latest mods: 14 tooth sprocket installed: better top end speed Freewheel has been welded. Tried out regen braking but it made the chain jump all over the place, made the motor warm up so I disabled it. Upgraded to Shimano BR-M375 Mechanical Disc Brake Caliper w/ 180mm disc brake rotor and...

Thanks guys!!! Just the help I needed that pointed me in the right direction! The biggest disc available is 180mm because the bolt circle diameter (BCD) is 48mm. All the 203mm discs have a 44mm BCD. I could / might try to modify the rotor I have, but still the rotor/caliper combo might be too...

This thing is a blast to ride! Stock rigid fork has been ditched for the MX650 coil fork. The rigid stock fork was to harsh imo. - Had to weld a bracket onto the existing fork bracket and cut off part of the old one for proper relocation for the brake caliper. - MX650 160mm disc brake had to be...

In addition to countersunk allen bolts, red loctite, and filing the dropout, use a zip tie around the wiring loom to the dropout/frame. Your last picture was extreme where you cut a major part out. I didnt have to do that, i tried to avoid that. I see you had no choice but you didnt know you...

I ended up getting 19 X 1.85" rims for both front and rear. Have has this setup for quite a while now. Was thinking of changing the front rim to a 19 X 1.4" because its lighter. What difference will that 1 to 2 pounds lighter rim make?

DNM USD-8s is cheap too. Same design = flex. I went with that fork, sold it and invested in a good quality built fork - a Fox 40. Mine is a street bike too and all I can say is the difference is like night and day. I also got a used Marzocchi 888 just to try out and it's plush!

Cheap part failure could lead to serious injury.
