I turn 1000 miles on my 2023 ORBEA WILD H10 TOMORROW GOD WILLING
That's not really relevant to the motor though. I can go down a really steep hill and hit 80kph with the motor off.
It's kind of the point of the thread, is to show how well people motors were lasting.

Agreed. A good idea, but would probably be better in another thread.

Based from what I've read on one of our United States based e-mtb forums (and the troubles alot of those folks have had with their motors failing early and often), I'm impressed by any high mileage attained by Shimano-motored ebike owners! So whatever you folks are doing, keep it up. Not alot of Yamaha reports coming in, but I figure those folks are out there pounding down the miles!
I think for the sake of accuracy in this chart, the individual poster has to distinguish between actual total distance traveled in either Miles or Kilometers and from there, the OP has to determine which parameter he is going to use in his charts (KM or Miles). There is a big, big difference in the distance traveled in one US based mile versus the rest of the world kilometer.
I know this is a Euro-based site, but I'm sure if you Metric folks call your distances traveled as miles, but it does seem confusing to this Yank! LOL

I've been trying to be consistent and using only miles in the tables. Where people have stated km, I've converted to miles. There are a few oddities where there are photos showing km, but the system has been modified so its actually in miles!Based from what I've read on one of our United States based e-mtb forums (and the troubles alot of those folks have had with their motors failing early and often), I'm impressed by any high mileage attained by Shimano-motored ebike owners!

In the UK, we still tend to talk about distance in miles, even though we're generally metric. We also order milk, and more importantly beer, by the pint rather than litre. A strange bunch we are.
Threads wander that's half of the fun

Miguel Angel Tamaral campeón Shimano Steps DU-E8000
On his 11th motor and 4th battery haha. No seriously that's great to hear about someone getting that amount of mileage. Probably loads out there similar stories but don't go on forums etc.
