Response from Stark Support
Thank you for contacting us and for your interest in the new portable charger.
This product is not yet available and will be produced with priority for the new VARG SM. It is expected to be available on our website within the next few months.
The price has not yet been determined and will be announced at the same time as its release.

It seems that everyone who has to trip over the barge that is the stand+charger is impressed by the new portable charger, BUT:
A street rider considering the Varg for the first time will reasonably ask why wasn't it possible to fit such a small unit into the bike.
Plenty of easy answers for those familiar with the timeline, but the simple answer is: they should have done it.
The SM isn't a competition bike, and the penalty of redesign shouldn't have affected intended use.
Hopefully now Stark knows how to build a small and light charger with decent power, all street bikes to come will have an onboard charger and the Varg SM will remain the exception.

For fast chargers though, we will see if/how they can fit that onboard in the future. I'm curious to see how big the onboard CCS2 charger is on the Honda WN7.

I think CCS will be possible as an adapter from stark charging port to ccs socket, unfortunanetly you will not get higher charging speeds (as I said before - due to wiring and fuses/ limitations) also that kind of adapter will be BULKY so even it can be even bigger than this external charger

Theoretically is it possible to have an adapter for CCS charging on the stark varg ?
The output of the charger to the bike battery is DC so yes, but as several have noted the connection from the charging port to the battery uses small wires which will not support large charging currents.
