... cruiser with a 36V extended range Wilderness Energy brushed motor. The bike is fast, reliable and stelth enough to pass under the radar. I bought the WE...

I will have to make longer runs on the Ego. If I connect 2 12AH batteries and store them on deck, will that make sense? Or am I just lugging deadweight? This...

It depends on what type the extra 12ah batteries are. If they are made for high discharge rates they will help with range. If they are UPS or general purpose...
