I switched out the wheelset to the Bafang G0F0.750.DC. https://bafang-e.com/en/oem-area/components/component/motor/rm-g0f05007501000ddc/

The rims are a bit wider I assume more like a mini, the stock tires are more low profile than stock now.  Using the EggRider to open up the stock controller I've been able to easily reach 28.5 mph including while going up a modest hill. The wheels are as true, as true can be and have no wobble or vibration at speed. The built-in speed limiting of the stock controller is preventing me from going faster. I can reach 30 mph pedaling hard but the power drops as I get nearer to 30.  Unloaded wheel off the group max speed is 30 mph with both 48v and 52V batteries. I am going to be trying out some different controllers shortly to free up the trapped speed.

The new motor did cause the stock display to have problems measuring speed. The EggRider switched to Rx/Tx reverse mode to compensate.

Did you confirm this worked?
I have the same issue. Ordered the Eggrider V2 for Bafang motors but realized its not compatible with a Radrunner.
The bigger problem is not the connector but a different pinout. If you use a straight pin to pin adapter you will blow up your EggRider. I blew up my first one that way. You can make an adapter. Here is the pinout images from EggRider website, the RAD controller is a Lishui. https://shop.eggrider.com/image/cache/catalog/products/EggRiderV2/EggRiderV2_display_pinout_3-500x500.png

Long story short, why is the 1000W smaller then the 750W? Does that matter?
If there's a possibity I was wrong and the 1000W Bafang motor is indeed a true 1000W ill gladly fix it and try again or purchase a new one.
It just seems unlikely as the technology looks the same, and its significantly smaller then the 750.

excuse me for being long winded.
If stock housing and the 1000W innards physically fit together it is worth trying again, it is a much better motor. I ran one on a Rover until I switched to a Runner Plus recently. More torque and RPM than the stock Runner motor and it is rated to 1000W continuous.
