Can anybody tell me what kind of motor this is and where to find a picture and/or specs on it?

I believe they're referring to the "larger" CIM "mini-bike" motor referenced in the changes to the KOP.

Wow, the AP801 pulls less amperage and has a lower wattage output, yet still out-performs the FR801 fairly significantly in stall torque?

The new motor makes its power at lower rpm, so it has to be geared "taller" to do the same thing, negating its torque advantage. Basically, the new motor underperforms the old CIM, but I'd guess it has a longer service life if used in continuous operation, as on the electric scooters it was apparently designed for.
