Post-KS motors are more robust (stronger, less prone to brush wear) than KS motors. All three types (KS, post-KS standard, beta) are drop-in compatible.

I've PMed you a coupon code for the upgrade - always promised to take care of KS backers.

It seems to have started when I started adding the ABS colorant to it, but I'm not sure if that's really the case or just coincidence.

I'm wondering if the motor on the filastruder site is just a drop in replacement for the one that I have, or maybe I can use the beta motor.
