    Lights!

    Thanks. Really interesting! One wonders if this is a preparation for the upcoming enduro model or just something else. I would not recomend that you tap into the water pump because that is a monitored feed. If a higher than expected power draw is detected it is seen as a fault and the bike...

    Care to share where you'll find a proper 12V supply ?

    The swedish guy that did the interview some weeks ago spoke to him again briefly.

    Anton said a couple of days ago they are in the 5000's now :)

    Is there any reason I can run 10-40w oil in the varg?

    I'm not that into oil chemistry that I can give you the full chemical/technical reason why not to do it. But to use oil that differs that much from the manufacturers spec sounds like a really bad idea. 10-40 is made for a different application.

    using the Varg app on a non-Stark phone

    The app is locked to this phone model. Don't know the details but the publisher (Stark) can lock what kind of phone the app is possible to download to.

    Range Increase Software Update Released

    Because the engineers told me so while I did a remote diagnostic session :) Coolest thing was when they turned the wheel while I was standing next to the bike. I work with these kind of things so actually nothing special (I have remote controlled a drill rig in Texas weighing some 100tons while...

    Range Increase Software Update Released

    I'm not sure I understand the question fully, hope this helps :) Phone can connect via 4G or WiFi. To update app or whatever. The phone is in no way needed to operate or update the bike. Bike can only connect via its' own 4G data sim that sits in the VCU (on the bike).

    +1 Every time there is some sort of upgrade I ask for this.

    Range Increase Software Update Released

    Yeah, you must have 4G-data connection. There is a data sim in the VCU that need to connect to some back office server for the bike to find the update. And then downlaod it.

    13 Tooth front Sproket

    I have been using 13-14-15 front from KTM. No problems. 15 is close but still fits. Will take a look when I remove it if there is any signs of wear to the "sprocket guard".

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    Sweden here... :) It feels like there are Vargs racing in various winter series every week end here. Some organizers are hiding behind the fact the regulations say that organizers must have a special place for charging. "We can't make the room for you", therefore you can't compete. Some welcome...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    I'd love to see a battery module with some 250 cells that is in an easily removable bottom part of the battery. And charge separately of course.

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    Sweden calling... :) First some interesting (I hope) info about how it works here. All Austrian made knobby tires bikes (>150cc) are road legal here like any R1 or Goldwing just like you say. We also have a nice way of getting un-homologated bikes through registration. But it comes with some...

    The big Stark Varg supermoto information topic

    Yeah, 5" rear! Using 4.25 with slick tires is no good. And in my experience also road tires on 4.25 gets wider than on 5" if using 150/160 wide. Have never tried 130/140 though.

    The big Stark Varg supermoto information topic

    I used 15t front this weekend with the studded tires. It's a bit of a stretch but seems fine. 16 won't make it. That one (and the 17t) will stay in the sprocket box :) Without anything custom made 15/38 is the tallest gearing you'll be able to put on. Remember the chain is riveted.

    The big Stark Varg supermoto information topic

    The app reported some 125km/h at the end of that tracks longest straight. The app is not a very reliable source for top speed and that speed probably was not the maximum for that gearing. So hard to say :) I did do a short improvised test with stock gearing and stock wheels (18"). The app said...

    Anti-Theft?!

    First. The phone has nothing to do with it :) Like I mentioned before, the VCU has its own data sim. So yes - they can be controlled remotely, I've seen it happen in my own garage. I'm sure they have implemented some sort of safety protocol meaning something like Stark can not control a bike...
