With a lot of help from Mr. Lyen, I was able to connect my 1000 watt Cyclone motor to one of his 18fet controllers. I also reused my cyclone throttle. It appears the battery indicator still works and all. I am still making the mount for it so, its not on the bike. I thought it was still worth posting how I matched the Cyclone's wires to Mr. Lyen's controller since I could not find it when I searched.
I first found the image of the controller on Ypedal's site:
Then Lyen sent me these two images:

He also suggested connecting the controller's throttle 5v out to the motor 15v listed in the images.
Then I connected them as indicated in this high tech analog carbon rendering:
It worked on the first try.

Not sure when I will get it on the bike. I have to finish making the motor sprocket and then make a new motor mounting bracket. It really depends when my machinist gets some free time.
If anyone can tell me what wires to flip to make it run in reverse, it would be helpful. I haven't tried yet.
