Mike, Make sure you have the battery cables snug. I had an issue where it took
off smooth, but there was a point where is would surge or jerk and it turned
out to be a loose connection when I was using bussbars.
Just a thought.
I have one mystery issue with the new batteries. The performance is a little
different. the strange behavior is that at about 45 MPH (perhaps 3000 rpms?)
the electric motor hit a sweet spot. It feels like the motor pulls harder (like
a load has been reduced allowing the motor to rev more freely). I have not idea
what to attribute this to except possibly a drive-line (mis) alignment or
potentiometer issue . Nothing was changes except the batteries. Any ideas about
how to diagnose or potential causes would be greatly appreciated.
