Correct, it was 4 550's.

Re: RIP Banebot RS550
 
I was considering "upgrading" my grandson's PowerWheels by replacing the motor in it with a RS-775.

When I went to see what was available from Banebots, having this thread in mind, I saw this in the 775 listing:

Quote:
This product has been discontinued. Stock is limited to quantity on hand with no plans to restock

We should be able to fill orders for any quantity you are able to put in your basket. Please note that an out of stock message may not truly mean we are out of stock as some items may be temporarily held by the web store. We will change the out of stock message or remove the product once the product is truly out of stock.
So I ordered up three as quickly as I could. One thing to note, they are currently clearing them out for $12.25 ea.
Just got them today!

It would appear that BaneBots will not longer be carrying ANY of their previous motors!
I just checked through every single different one, and they are all discontinued.
:ahh:

As of 5:36PM, 9-12-2015, they have 2469 of the RS775-18 still in stock. The RS550 is no longer listed on the website at all.

Too bad we don't know if they'll be legal.

I can't imagine them having a legal motor that rookies won't be able to obtain... The only way I think they could be legal is if an identical motor is available elsewhere... and I do mean identical :)

Yeah, I really hope they don't do that.

It's happened before unfortunately.

One more option.... if it's included in the KOP.
Fingers crossed!
