750 What's (sic)

[FloridaBoy]

Curious to see people's comments how they feel about the Rad Rover 5's power as it comes from the factory ?
There seems to be some question regarding the motor?  There are 750 watt upgrades out there that promise more power & acceleration ?
Never dealt with motors sold via watts before ? ?  Typically . ..  in sawmills . .. .it's horsepower.    Food for thought: https://ebikes.ca/learn/power-ratings.html.

My 1st ride impression:  After riding it 6 miles on relatively near flat terrain. ie:  A 5' rise in a quarter mile  . .. . is a hill ? ?
Rode 1/2 in the pedal assist mode. Didn't feel the need to go above level 3. Motor kicked in very fast above  3.
Rode the rest in the throttle only mode.  Lost 1 bar off the charge level and 1 mph off the top speed. My impression is that it would take mountains to want for the motor / controller upgrade.  My motor wasn't warm even after that 1st ride.

Update:
Replaced the original tires with street tires.  In removing the rear wheel I got to inspect the connector to the motor.
My bike is at a month "new". One pin in the connector is turning black ? ?  I suspect overheating as pin is smaller than I expected..
If it is overheating the "plating" will eventually migrate & "sputter" when it starts arcing.  Seen it before on other equipment.
