I have the Magic Pie III. The programming software allows you to work with 24,36,48V and also to limit the current from any of these voltages: therefore I can set the power. But the _potential_ is there at 48V for around 1000W, and perhaps 1200W. So the motor is capable of more than the power allowed BUT...If I set the system up to have 48V/5A (which at full charge can be just over 50V at 5A), so I am under the power limit. But back to part 1

I do have to say that unless I was found doing a ridiculous speed on the bike, there would be little reason except curiosity or vindictiveness to stop me, and how on earth is the average patrol office going to test all of this?
This seems to me to be a thing that will either be ruthlessly pursued, or simply rely on catching speeders, then doing a "yellow sticker" on the bike. I know there a quite a few people out there screaming around on 1000-5000W bikes, who just do not care, and I am more than a little angry about them. But I hope that people like me, who just want the dependability of the bigger motor, working with ease, will not get caught up.
