I like the fact that the frame is purpose-built for the electric battery and powertrain, that contribute structurally. I haven't understood whether that charger is an onboard charger and if its weight is included in the 112 kg. Here in paragraph 3 they say that the battery is IP67 rated: I...

That's true and now that I read your comment it also occurs to me that with (almost) no load the probability to have shavings in the oil decreases, too.

If someone wants to do that, I suggest blowing some air with a powerful fan on the bike and not doing it if the environmental temparture is high because of the risk of overheating.

Exactly. The reverse thread locknut has part number SMX1-SR-S-02 and it's listed in the spare parts of all the four Varg models MX 1.0, MX 1.2, EX and SM. @HITNRUN: I suggest that if you really can't remove that nut you should contact Stark Future because, like @drehwurm68's written, it is...

That's not a captive nut: it's a reverse thread locknut. These guys struggled for a while before realizing it; watch @3:53: I suggest that you follow these steps in the reassembly: my post in another thread Someone else has reported that wear on the swingarm; I have some minor marks.

Don't forget to check the upper shock spherical bearing. You could disassemble everything and, first of all, test each bushing in its bearing. The pullrod to rocker arm bushing and the rockerarm to swingarm bushing should have the same outer diameter since their bearings have the same part...

At 7:15 you can notice the Hirschmann logo on the apparently ride-by-wire type throttle of a sportsbike whose engine develops 228 or 247 hp, depending on the configuration.

Have you seen this, @1:06?

I agree: that's why I recommend wrapping tape past that point (not that I've tried). Good for you! Of course you can keep the old wiring harness as a spare part for when the warranty will have expired.

I didn't understand how it happens because I took it for granted that the seal ring stayed on the side, but it makes sense that it ends up between the faces with the pins because it protrudes from the side and then it hinders the pins action. Maybe a simpler solution -if the bike is not under...

Unless you cleaned the connector before taking the pictures, I doubt that the little dirt I see has caused problems. Maybe water. One thing to consider is that this connector, unlike the other two, has the female socket below the male plug and therefore anything small that is pushed down by...

An 805 raced by a good rider:

Provided the battery inside that bike is indeed one with the specified energy density, lifespan, etc. and that the images of charger screen have not been modified -I'm not saying it has been or not; I can't know- , this looks impressive:

I think you've made a good choice: this is a new brand and supposedly they don't have the same expertise as more known ones. Maybe the designers already have some experience at other companies, but I still think that a new bike from a new brand is already challenging and as I wrote back then, I...

Another thing to bring with you, albeit abstract, is an AI model loaded on your phone and useable offline.

One way to estimate the pitch is to count how many coils fit into the width of a socket. For example, if you suspect that the pitch of an M8 screw is the standard 1.25 mm, since 1.25 • 4 = 5, you can verify that 4 coils fit into the width of a 5mm hexagonal socket. Actually in this case it would...

In another track they have added three more high current plugs to satisfy customers who ride electric dirtbikes (they have installed them and they look almost ready but we can't use them yet). IIRC they told me once, when they were planning to do it, that overall those plugs would have...

If you need to know the size of a metric male thread in this situation: • you don't have measuring tools, • you don't have female threads of known size to test • you have sockets which can happen when you lose a fastener from a vehicle and you need to buy a spare one to get home, just slide the...

Some people reported success simply removing the rear wheel to then get the chain off of the rear sprocket and then reinstall the wheel: at that point you can push the bike without winning the drag from the motor.

IMO the problem is that the regen braking only works with the rear wheel and we all know how little stopping power the rear wheel can deliver before starting to slip. Front brakes of street bikes, vice versa, are pretty powerful; I've read estimates like hundreds of kW and it's not so hard to...
