"Um, wut?!" Not to derail the topic any further here, but I believe the naked Valkyrie has a lower center of gravity (& slacker fork angle) than the Goldwing... Only good reason it might feel top-heavy, is a lower saddle height, with the feet farther forward; meaning less control. Extend...

Beware that the version of Bafang Config Tool you're using in that screenshot, is not intended for use with Bafang g510\m620\Ultra motors, which have torque sensing! For best results, you probably should use the Frey Config Tool, or a later version of the Bafang Config Tool, with a Torque tab...

🤣 I really don't! (Most of the tuning I had to do, was to soften the pedal assist power!) When I want an e-motorcycle, it'll be a big one. Think "1520cc, 6-cylinder, shaft drive, Honda Valkyrie; converted to >12KW EV, with the seat stretched back 5 inches & raised 5 inches" big.

TLDR: The MPH/KPH speed limit set by your display, affects the MPH/KPH speed at which each "Spd0", "Spd20", "Spd40" etc, range of torque sensitivity settings, will engage.

I wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy (about this), before stating this as a certainty, but I triple-checked, today, & it's true: If your SpeedMeterModel setting in the Basic tab, is set to "External, Wheel Meter", & your SpeedLimited setting in the Pedal Assist tab, is set to "By Display's...

For sure, that's plenty o' gears! 😉👍 The need for programming specific to certain gear ratios, comes in primarily at the extreme minimum & maximum ratios. Drastically different end ratios will likely want different tuning, of the PAS percentiles & the Torque tab's...

Nice. 52 V is plenty for my stock Bafang m620 controller! 48 V @ 21 Ah is OK. 52 V @ 20 Ah is better! I don't really need 60 V though; but I'd love more Ah! Just want to add about 12-to-30 % more runnnntiiiime... 🏘️🚴🌇🚵⛰️🚵🏔️🚵🏞️🚵⛰️🚵🌇🚴🏘️

Thanks for the detailed response! I would not want battery weight mounted so high on the frame, as the Canon1 does... but I think it is a good sign, to see 7P battery cases using 21700 cells! The frame has a lot more room left available, above & around the sides of, the Dorado case (on the...

Wanted: Torque sensor with 0-to-120 Kg reporting range, for Bafang g510 motor! (Anyone familiar enough with torque sensors to say how difficult this would be? Any alternatives already on the market?)

I did go through the steps of clicking Continuous Get then applying force to the pedals while watching TqVoltate, to see when the sensor maxed out, but indeed, it's around 60Kg, & I weigh a lot more than that... So, simply standing on the front pedal, or putting enough force to climb a step...

To be clear, the Base Voltage should be set with no force on the pedals. Standing on it to get a peak force reading, & to gauge effort relative to a given reading, is an additional set of steps. No pedal force or balancing on the bike is necessary, to find out the sensor's Base Voltage; it can...

Mine feels _vastly_ different at 10-to-20 MPH, with display set to 60 MPH limit, than it does set to 30. Have you compared the same runs at low assist level, with limit set very high or low? (Such differences are not nearly so noticeable at higher percentiles of assist.) RPM would have made...

To anyone just discovering that their DPC18 display, with "five" PAS levels, 0-thru-5, has both 0-thru-5 Eco, & 0-thru-5 Sport modes, and can be set to give assist in PAS 0... Congratulations, you've effectively got 12 different levels of pedal assist!

Fascinating info, thanks for the feedback! I do not enjoy cadence-based response, so it's disappointing that's what feel you ended up with. Is your speed limit set to 45 MPH? 11-speed, 11-tooth to 42 tooth cassette, with a 40 tooth chainring? If so, skip ahead, because... I strongly suspect...

Thanks! That's the exact same file inside a different archive, so I deleted the redundant post. Anyone wanting to use my config file, please refer to this post, above.

Original default "config", WITH NO TORQUE SENSOR CALIBRATION: (Do NOT use this! Also, do NOT tune your Bafang Ultra with Base Voltage set to 0!) ^Note the Base Voltage is unconfigured, at 0 mV! This will cause 0 Kg of pedal force to read as ~19 Kg! Additionally, that's nearly...

Hm, I just noticed that I never posted my most recent tuning, here! Rather rude of me, since this was one of the first places I ever saw the "Smooth" config linked! Starting from the "Smooth" tune, test riding it a bit, tweaking a few settings very slightly, &...

I had 0KCal showing after the first test rides, even before altering any settings. I'm not sure how that's calculated by the DPC18, but it's never moved from zero thousand calories... Like the detailed per-cell battery info, perhaps that's a DPC18 "feature" that won't actually work on most...

Went for another grocery run today, & with a backpack & pannier bags full of ~45 pounds of groceries, it handles better in the snow+slush+slicks, than with no cargo at all... Loving my 2022-01-18 tuning so far: Pushing more, gets more, & it switches response levels at 40 & 60% speed, right...

💯‼️ 🤦 I responded before caffeinating & forgot we were talking about batteries for the new v6! I've been on the hunt for larger batteries for the v5...
