Went test riding before the rain. Pulls good, but I can’t stop 
I don’t remember having to pre wear belts in but on my voyage belts stretch wa a thing and it was bad. Was skipping to stop from 20mph.
Also the blue loctite broke free in a couple places which included me losing a motor mount grub. Good thing the tolerances were very small for the mounts to start with.
Metr picture was me limping it back to my office haha that wh/mi

Update got new batteries Samsung 40t3 built up by @Skyart
Running solos as well
Last step before I do motors and detection is making sure it actually fits
Previous enclosure has some miles and age. New one but it looks like half my holes fit.
Update maybe tomorrow

Tried trkp, feels too weird for me. I’ve sank about $200 in bushings and not sure if I want to pursue or adapt my riding style at the moment.
Currently just feels too loose with the aps bushings I’ve tried. The kranks feel ok vs the old trucks, but not 100% a fan yet. It’s also very low to the ground.

I’ve felt like this every time I use APS bushings. They just seem super soft
