Re: Which motor is better?

Not quite. The Large MiniBike CIM actually has one more small hole opposite the output shaft, on the plate holding the back of the armature.

The big one is definitely not, but is the small CIM water resistant? If you take the motor apart, you'll notice that there are rubber gaskets between the different case parts. The only real hole that isn't gasketed is to the output shaft hole.
