And that was his old motor.  Maybe that explains why it is his old motor now...

Ha, thanks for posting this, I've been wanting to see it. The new motor is in and it's a vast improvement over the old one. I think the old one had a lot of wear and tear before I got my hands on it.

"Hands on it"  More like "Foot in it!" 

On the flip side the only thing that generally wears on out those motors is the brushes.  The windings can get abused by heat so that can cause degradation too.  Look forward to hearing all about it next week.  Not often we get to hear about stuff breaking.

Cool Mike!  What does "vast improvement" mean?  Torque, speed, smoothness, sound ?

Hey Mike,
The Alternative Transportation Show is in Batavia on Aug. 8th, I believe you're somewhere in the tri-city area.

Great event, details below:

Just following up with you in regard to the upcoming Green Fair on the Fox on Saturday, August 8th.  The Alternative Transportation Show was a big hit last year at the event and we're hoping for the same this year.
 
 
Registration is easy at http://www.greenfaironthefox.com/alternative-transportation-show-registration/#!event/2015/8/8/alternative-transportation-show
 
The show goes from 9-3 so even if a car owner can only be there for a portion of the show that's okay.

--best
