I am sure lipomaxx ans serum may step in here with some experience, but the rated wattage of a motor is somewhat misleading. I know lipomaxx has a data recording system and has pulled upwards of 1000watts at near 100 amps from the little basic 2700 motor (rated for 700 wats and 35 amps). I am sure the big maximum is powerful, but the most likely factor to limit performance will be the batteries (ability to deliver the power), not the motor. I am sure a basic xl (rated for 1300 watts) or any of the Feigaos I carry could put out upwards of 2000 watts for short periods of time. Unless you plan on towing yourself around, you don't need this much power continuously.
