There is a wiki with a spread sheet regarding how to systematically determine the the correct wire hook ups for an unknown motor and controller including how to select reverse.

And some simple but hefty rear drop out reinforcements that can be welded on or just bonded on with epoxy. These are slotted torque arms without the "arm" so the wheel still drops out for a tire change simply by loosening the axle as before.

There is also tons of good battery balancing info there as well.

Medium range is my 37 mile jaunt to work every day for the last 22 years. Which can be done all super highway at 70 mph and wide boulevard traffic on the CBR250R for $1.80, or 80% back country highways with city back streets on the PCX150 for $1.70 or Ebike for 1.6KWhr or $0.25. A 24s stack of Amp20 cells should just make it even if I have to dig with some peddling up the hills.

Long range is a 4-500 mile trip to Americade or AMA Vintage Days for camping every year. Endurance would be 1,700 miles in 2 days to visit family in Denver if I ever get the chance.
