It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

yeah, my motor is 750W (right under 1HP), top speed 28. it has a throttle so it's class 2 electric, no license needed.
i really want to figure out how to change the max speed on the throttle to something lower so i can get better mileage and maybe go someplace a little further, but i'm not entirely sure how the math maths on that one (friction and air resistance y'know)
If you have a question about your own ebike and not the Honda moped in the OP's post, you should start a new post so that other people can try to answer.
That said, at least in California and many other states, 28 MPH is not allowed on a Class 2 ebike. Only a Class 3 ebike can do 28 MPH, but a throttle is not allowed on a Class 3. Class 2 tops out at 20 MPH.
oh i've got the manual and all that, i just can't get the change to commit for some reason. and you're right, it's set at 20. i've got a flat and it's been raining for a while so i haven't taken her out for a month or so. brain fog and all that.
Why not just go easier on the throttle?
because i don't want to have to pay that close attention to "am i going 12 mph" the whole damn way and the "cruise control" functions are a joke, just turning those on drains half the battery
Seems odd that CC itself would use much extra power: What's your ride? My EP2 has CC and I have not noticed any impact on battery using it vs not using it.
