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.
