Just aquired a Kudos Tornado and this is the code on the rear motor: 8fun swx08 36v250w 26 and underneath 1408 5443.
I was under the impression it should have a bpm code?
I'm in the UK
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)IMG_20151106_160601.jpg

yes. It's a lighter weight version of the BPM. Capable of up to 40kph.

Hard to tell from the picture. IIRC the Tornado was one of the first to use the BPM. I wonder if early versions were AKA SWX08.

How old is the bike?

Well, to the flanges that motor is bigger than both the brake disc and cassette, so it's not the 120mm.
