I don't think the motors will burn out at all, to the contrary, I think the motors are great little work horses. I have used them often on prototype robots.

I am just saying that even though they may have a higher nominal power rating than the CIM's, the CIM's may be able to put out higher power in the long run if the motors are allowed to run long enough to get super hot.
