Stark VARG PDF tutorial library from the official Stark videos

[madkuku]

I put together a garage-friendly Stark VARG PDF tutorial library based on the official Stark Future YouTube tutorials for both MX and EX.

The main reason was simple: when you’re actually working on the bike, it’s a lot easier to have a clean step-by-step PDF open on your phone, tablet, or printed in the garage than to keep scrubbing through a video with dirty hands.

What it is:

• AI-generated step-by-step PDF tutorials created from the official Stark Future tutorial videos
• A clear screenshot included for every step
• Removal, bolt removal, clip removal, part removal, and reassembly documented more clearly for garage use
• Removal and installation separated where needed so assembly is easier to follow
• Torque values added into the steps and matched against official Stark tutorial/manual information where available, especially where the videos themselves did not clearly show or state them
• Each tutorial links back to the original Stark video

Website:
Stark Varg Tutorial Library

A few important notes:

• This is unofficial
• All original source videos and official documentation belong to Stark Future
• This is only meant as a convenience/reference guide for working on the bike
• Always double-check critical work against the official Stark docs and use your own judgment
• Anyone using it takes full responsibility for maintenance, repairs, torque verification, safety, and results

If people find it useful, I can keep improving and updating it.

Very nice!

What a great job!!!
Instalation spoilers no torque, I think 5nm maybe?
Instalation rear shock no torque.

Is that the original MX? fixing the pdfs there

Hi, EX and MX 1.2. Thanks for your time.

Thank you for these.
One important question @madkuku: those tutorials are AI generated and I completely understand it because I would have used AI, too, in your shoes, but has any human checked that they are mistakes free?
For example, take this as constructive criticism, but in your pull rod tutorial, the AI said that the information source is the Stark's ASMR video and the AI also shows a frame of the video in which they say that the chain should be opened, while many say that you don't need to open the chain to remove the linkages.
IMO, until no human has verified the information in each guide, you should add a warning message about it.
If you like it, we, forum members, can read the tutorials and tell you whether they seem right after we have performed the task for real.

I'd also like to point put that in the support section of Stark's site there are official pdf guides that are the written counterparts of the videos and even some more, with additional information. For example:
• In the "replace chain" document number 03.011.02, at point #5 they say that the diameter of the rivets should be 5.5 mm with tolerance 0/+0.1, which is a piece of information that I've never seen in their videos.
• In the powertrain replacement video, they didn't specify the torque setting of the motor to frame shaft SMX1-F-A-07, but in their official pdf named "Remove and install powertrain unit", number 07.001.01, the piece of information is written in the point #11 of that guide: 60 Nm.
Those guides lack pictures, though.
Here they are.

Thanks @thao.
I've reviewed most of the important ones I think.
The old MX ones and some others are quite difficult since there is not transcript

Please do mention where you see issues and I'll try to run a fix.

The pdf guides from stark are unclear to me but I'll try to take from them when possible.

There are disclaimers

while many say that you don't need to open the chain to remove the linkages

Yes, you don't need to break the chain and remove it for multiple instances where Starks videos suggest this. I would consider this a reasonable short cut and time/effort saver that could be flagged.
