In my mind, I am convinced that the specs as published are the spec of the motor we have (excepting any mixed lot parts that where shipped by mistake -- but it seems that that is the minority of parts, if any).
The issue of what voltage you can run them at is an open one. The motor can "stand" 12V. If the motor is not loaded too highly, 12V will be just fine. If you load the motor down, you are asking for trouble.
Bottom line for me: Keep V*I Power from becoming m*Cp*(dT/dt) Power and you will keep your motors cool and happy. Run too close to the stall point for too long and the acrid smell of burnt motor windings will fill the air ;-)
