I have a brushcutter with a seized motor that I want to electrify. Will probably not cut anything thicker than heavy weeds (I have a new brushcutter for the hard stuff).

Those look like the smallest that might do the job. Some weedwhackers and kids ride-on toys are using them.
What is your question?
Many power tools are using them. They have huge stall current, not a beginner project to drive them at max power.
Anyone have experience with RS-755 DC motors?
I guess I hadn't really given any thought to specifics. Maybe stuff like "the bearings are crappy and can't take an axial load" or "they overheat too quickly." The kind of stuff you don't get from a spec sheet.
I looked at the specs of a few of them and they seemed pretty good for the price but I didn't have a good "feel" for how well they'd perform in my application. Just trying to get an idea if it's reasonable or I should keep looking for something bigger.
Should probably just get one and a few batteries and try it out.
How much load does your conveyor carry?
That will be difficult. RS-755 from Mabuchi is different quality from some other manufacturer X.
My conveyor used no branded one. It's was heavily geared and had torque comparable to good quality cordless drill.
