How does the power of the m600 compare to the HD? Does your HD have the ludicrous controller? How does the torque sensor compare to a factory bike like a haibike?

I have riden the Haibike and was impressed but no throttle. I can not remember the feel of the that ride as it was a while ago to compare it to the Bafang M600. However I can compare it to a Specialized rental bike I tried this summer, I can not remeber if the specialized came with a Bosh or Shimano but it was horible. The pedal assist seemed to come on like an on just like an ON/OFF switch and to change power levels you had to reach down into the front triangle to press a button on the battery. Also the specialized was noisier than the M600 drive but it was a rental so who knows what it had been through. I am sure it was an older model but it was garbage. The M600 is very smooth as far as the pedal assist goes. You press harder on the pedals and you fell it giving more assist plus you have 5 power levels to choose from. I hope the throttle works as smooth.
Hey Wayne,waynebergman said:Thanks Dropdeadfred for the suggestion. I am pretty sure the bash guard will be fine with out drill outs but I also was thinking of doing that myself but decided against it. I feel the motor will still run cool and there is apparently a temp sensor auto shut down so we will see.
I cut out an opening for the battery wires in the plastic side cover for back pack duties so I could put the cover back on the motor shown in the photo.
Also shown is the little flip flop pivot for rear shock mount for changing the BB height. I swapped that over today to get a little more ground clearance, looks like I get an extra 1/2" or so of ground clearance by moving the rear shock mounting location as shown in the photo.
