Greetings,
I have a Super Soco TSX that I've been using for about 5 months and it has 3,300km on the odometer, recently I purchased new larger Tires (from 90/80/17 to 110/70/17 front, 110/80/17 to 130/70/17 rear) and a Second Battery (60v30ah ) with the official Super Soco Paraleller (which in reality it just switches the batterys every 15 seconds). After said upgrades I've noticed a significant reduction in acceleration from a stand still and slightly lower Max Speed (63kmph compared to 67kmph pre upgrades), while I understand these things were supposed to weight down the bike and increase rotational mass for the tires, I wasn't expecting it to be so severe. So I'm now looking to upgrade into a QS Motor 273 4kw Hub and a VOTOL em 100 or 150 for a quick and easy upgrade.

Questions are:

Can I parallel both batteries to the controler? (they are identical in V and AH, also theres a video of someone just plugging the - and + of the second battery and just using the BMS information from the first battery to communicate with the Controller. (video link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V16n56fAApw) (Video is in italian, i can't understand most of what he says.)

Will this (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33053979766.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.16ca7743Bx73fX&algo_pvid=c00c6a01-a773-49fe-9e5a-acd2afc1a4df&algo_exp_id=c00c6a01-a773-49fe-9e5a-acd2afc1a4df-13) 4KW motor be enough for me (6,1f 110kg with gear + mounted box with tools)to reach top speeds of 90kmph and have enough pull to get off the line fast enough?

Is the VOTOL em 100 or 150 enough, configurable?, I'm looking for options into regen breaking and reverse.

Both batteries are still under warranty (2years) so I don't feel like dissasembling them. I can ask QS motor to configure the Motor for 60v, what other factors should I tell them to set up?.

Thanks for taking the time, I looked at the TCMAX but its pretty much US$7,000.00 which is twice as much what I paid initially for the TSX, and i already have 2 Batteries.

Modifying will be more expensive than selling the TSX with both batteries for lets say 4000$.
For a proper upgrade, you don´t really need a new motor, but new inverter (60V rated, 100A cont. if using both batteries in parallel which is fine as long as their SOC´s are about equal), a new display, new wiring harness. At this point, you are basically building a new bike (I did all that with my TC), so from a financial standpoint, it´s not worth it.

I spend about 7000$ for my TC and the new parts.
 
Thanks for the reply, i've considered selling the TSX and just getting a gas bike.
