I don't think it's a big deal. Naturally, though my motor mounts are kind of thick so they cover the drive wheel pulley anyways and I've ridden 900+ miles now. I'm going to make them a bit smaller though to accommodate for 75mm wheels. I think the belt for the most part is usually moving fast that everything just gets pushed out of the way. It's a selling feature - I'm sure lol.
@ beto - I'm sure those prices will go up especially the time it takes to cnc those parts plus the 7075 aluminum. That motor is tore up even my motors don't look that bad and I have no shield guards on mine LOL. Not only those loose bolts but look at the motor mount part it's held on by two bolts. The torque on the motor is going to snap (using loctite) and/or loosen those bolts.
However, I'd like to see it tested .
