i think one motor has about a 5 degree difference and another a little under 2. I’ve had 2 volta sensor boards go out but nothing for my newer, less used v21.
I’m in the market for a new 21.5 motor and there’s too many good motors to choose from. Also do I either go for something like a nick bell or rotor Ron built motor or just do it myself. I can do the timing myself, and non-magnetic hardware, it’s just shimming. That I don’t know how to do. The nick bell built v30 with ceramic bearings seems like a good deal.
I guess my last thing - anyone run these on their motor? Seems overkill but seems worth it, IF, they last a long time.
