Have you modified your EVT 168 for more speed or performance?
Im Curious how to get more umph out of it .
I've put about 15 miles on ours so far. In P mode starting from stop power is good but 31 MPH top speed is just barely cutting it even in our 25 mph zone neighborhoods...
here is a video of first start up

Yes it certainly feels limited . E mode goes 25 mph with slow take off. P mode goes 30 MPH with faster take off . Totally feels speed limited. Any idea where I might find a controller hack to up the speed ?
Inside my open controller. See 2 stage throttle stop?.. What would happen if I re moved the 1st stop and it goes full throttle to the 2nd stop?

I'm already thinking about how to modify it to go faster. Can't sleep. I keep thinking about When I had the controller open there was a throttle stop there was easily removable 1st stage. I put the BMS back into protection mode. Un did the hack.

That's Ok. I'm elated to finally get it running. Literaly over the moon happy ! I took it for a ride late at night when I got it put back together with no helmet so excited it goes 30 miles an hour top speed so far. But battrry need cycle a bit. Has never discharged yet. So happy. Got it all...
I thought what I got to lose I don't know if it was be grounded 12 v 24 V 48v or 54 v.
I took a chance put inline fuse and wired it directly to the battery at 54 V and the bike started I got the green light
I am so happy

Good idea. I checked both the side kick stand and the center kick stand for a switch and also the underside of the seat to see if there's a seat pressure sensor . my EVT
168 has none. I'm sure it is something simple like a kill switch just frustrating trying to figure out what and where it is...
My suspicion is the overheat sensor is shorted but I have no idea where it is if it's not in the hub motor I'm assuming it's in the controller some place?

Hello Aussie Ruder,
Yes. I disconnected the blue connector kill switch and the same thing happens the bike goes through start up sequence beeps and flashes 5 times and then continues to Flash forever

I've read a bit about the brushed hub motors building up carbon and needed service and clean out and check brushes. I'm tempted to take the rear wheel off and check the hub . Possibly the overheat sensor is within the hub. I do have 4200 miles on the bike. I wonder if my hub motor is full of...
Yes, thanks Aussie Rider . I pulled the front cover. The kill switch has red and blue wires and unfortunately work s perfect. It shows continuity when off and open when on. Which seems backwards to me however works perfectly. Dang.
Was so hoping that was it.
