Radrunner1 Upgrades

[jttoddy]

Hello, first time posting. I have a Radrunner1 and had the following questions;
1. Will the Bolton/Electro bike world 35a controller work with the 1000w Bafang rear hub motor(G062.1000D 06)?
2. What would be the recommended/best settings to ensure no overheating of any of the
components?
3. What is the max wattage or volts (not sure how it works) that I should allow it to run at and
for how long?
4. Can I upgrade any other components, wires, connectors, etc. for less resistance?
Also, I would like to install a new larger 4” to 6” led headlight and blinkers, and had the
following questions;
1. What would be needed for install? I assume I need a finger switch for blinkers, and possibly
some sort of relay or module.
2. Will a new headlight work with the Bolton display headlight controls?
I also have and plan to install a dual crown front shock, Tektro Dorado 4 piston brakes. Have already installed 35 amp controller, GT
performer handle bars & grips, and Innova 4 1/4" Shield tires.
Will post pics when finished.
Thanks Again!

Most of your questions would best be answered by Bolton support. Have you asked them?

The stock controller is what, 17A? Consider upgrading the battery as the stock battery may not be able to safely deliver the amperage the new controller requests, and will not last long.

I did a quick search here for you (search term "turn signals"), found lots of info for you:

Yes the stock controller was 17a. I have contacted Bolton and they said the 1000w Bafang has not been tested with the controller yet but said it should work fine. I am planning on upgrading to a 52v battery or possibly installing a second battery. The new 1000w motor is listed as a 48v will a 52v battery work with it?
Thank you for your help!

The motor won't care, it will just run a little faster. Those controllers are KT controllers, so the 48V will run at 52V. The battery bars on the display won't read correctly, but the voltage readout will work.
