I did find this video which supposedly Replaces the STOCK X2 ludicrous Display, the black and white TFT display seems to have a new update, it comes with optional cables depending on which engine you are running or the wire connection you need. I may order it and try it after I try a few others.
Yeah, I got the ATV-style thumb throttle for mine. This is a really nice 12speed Derailleur https://bike.shimano.com/en-EU/product/component/deore-xt-m8100/RD-M8100-GS.html I was looking at if I stuck with 12speed. Then I saw this shortcage for extra clearance(my trails are very Rocky Logs to go over. https://bike.shimano.com/en-EU/product/component/xtr-m9050-di2/RD-M9050-GS.html was another derailleur I was looking at. I think for now I will take your advice and buy a Hybrid hub where I can swap drivers out if necessary. If I can obtain the Linkglide 11speed setup, I will likely go with that, otherwise, I think I will end up with the 8100 Deore 11speed running HG+, If I stick with SRAM 12speed, I will likely go to XD driver w/ GX shifter derailleur & cassette. SRAM has a newer chain setup that's nice as well https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07218K493/ref=crt_ewc_title_dp_8?ie=UTF8&smid=AMY4I718ZUBOU&th=1 meant to work with the GX setup. Called SRAM FLOWLINK though I think it's a HOLLOW pin chain. I don't know what existed first flowlink, or linkglide. Nor do I understand how comparable they are. If I stay at a 12speed SRAM the I'll use FLOWLINK chain, if I go to an 11speed GX setup, I'll prob buy the Connex 11speed chain with solid pins. Right now it looks like i am stuck researching prices, & I will go with the best setup for my money. Which would be just to swap to xd driver & GX 12speed Cassette, shifter, & derailleur. HG+ is only good on SRAM SX & NX it can't be used on the GX Cassette or higher by SRAM. It really is hard to decide what conversion to do. I figure I will wait until I have 250+miles before changing the groupset unless it fails on me. As for brakes that is the easiest for me. Either MAGURA MT Trail or the MT7E 4 piston brake setup. You can get the MT7s without the E-brake cutt off, basically buy MT7 levers with the MT7E Brake Calipers. I Can always add the MT7E levers later if I wanted the engine cut off.
Oh, that's disappointing to know the X2 is slower than the Z1. I specifically asked LUNA which bike is faster, & which would suit me better for the different types of riding. They specifically said the X2 Ludicrous was way faster than the Z1. That Z1 would be better if I plan to ride throttle all the time, but I don't. I was diagnosed with Sclerosis, & this is meant to get me back into the fight. The disease causes constant pain & suffering. So I had to sell my Z1000, though I do have a 1100hpmax 900hp daily driver Race Car. That is sitting in my garage unused. It needs to be gone through again. My friend snapped my driveshaft when I let him drive it, & now it needs a full drivetrain rebuild. Last time I let anyone drive my race car. The worst part is he broke the week before I planned to tune down & put a smaller turbo on it. I love my cars. My motorcycle was custom tuned as well. Every Motorsport item I have owned has been custom-tuned. MY 2007 Kawasaki Z1000 Ran a DynoJet PowerCommander combined with Power Commander accessories like Quickshifter/. Allowed me to switch between different maps on the fly. I miss that bike. The Talon runs AEM STandalone EMS v2. Love my toys. But Motorcycle is sold. I had talked to LUNA so many times, & they swore up & down that the X2 was way faster then the Z1 in PAS or throttle. Now I feel I may of made the wrong choice. too late to turn back now. maybe I will just buy myself a used Dirtbike to mess around on. I had a lot of toys at one time. Before I got diagnosed with this disease. I will for sure message you about the rims, are they the Offset ARC40 rims, with straight-spoke 350 hubs?
’Bulletproof’ on an ebike groupset is a bit optimistic. Chains, cassettes wear pretty quickly on ebikes, even moreso those using throttles heavily and/or not smoothly. LinkGlide was specifically made for ebikes, or at least is claimed to be. Box 8/9 also targets ebikes. Both of these are reasonably priced for replacements, while SRAM’s ebike and X01 are crazy $$ and don’t make much financial sense to me.
Calipers don’t matter much here vs the caliper mounting bracket. Could have gone to 203 but 3mm difference is mostay a marketing gimmick IMO while a bit harder to find, and I wanted the red Hope rotors, which were already difficult to find at the time..
HG ‘Hybrid’ driver, which is steel. There’s no such thing as a LinkGlide hub - they use HG drivers for LG cassettes.
The CANBUS controllers are very different, it’s not just the cable connection. Possible but somewhat unlikely the speed app works on M600, but regardless the Ludiv2 is an entirely different controller with its own app.

Search other owner threads. With some effort, I can get my Ludi x2 to hit 30mph. I rarely use throttle but will try another throttle top speed run when I remember. Going to a 40T chainring will add a couple MPH top end. My BBHSD bike had no issues getting to 36mph, which is around where I’ve seen several Z1 owners say, as well as many Ultra/M620 owners (same motor is on MANY bikes).
