Fair. For clarity though, I have not blamed the engineers. Rather the team which would include the management directing it.

I love your selection of bikes. If I had room for more bikes these are the 2 others I would have. I used to ride trails back in Aus and had to turn off my WR450 at traffic lights I hit heading out or coming home, otherwise it would overheat fast.

My previous 2014 six days 250 EXC is likely be the last KTM I'll have owned now that I've experienced what the Stark can do. I only wish there was more competition to push this tech further, faster.

I'm just disappointed how little they have moved in the 12 years since they first released the freeride E-XC. If they had a better team developing it, then KTM might have positioned themselves well for the future. But instead we see what happened to KTM.

Don't you know the Starks are for My EX does over 105mph on tarmac in supermoto trim. On dirt more than possible if you do what TheJ0rma suggests, balancing the tyres is key, the rest is easy.

Yep, and its really a shame. I was so ready to buy one, and was waiting for the second release. But that was disappointing when it released, with only a slightly larger battery. Then I got really excited about Alta, but it was so hard to try and get a hold of one where I'm at. Then we all know...

I think you're on the wrong type of forum sorry mate. But maybe someone can help you. Found this with google

Was in stock in the EU at least for a while. But you're right, its gone now.

the squeaking might also just be that the oil seal lips are dry. put a little grease on them before reinserting the spacers. Is there still a lot of drag on the wheel even without the chain?

yes, something doesn't sound right there. Are the spacers seated correctly? It also sounds as if the brake disc is dragging once every rotation too, so maybe not everything is lined up as it should be on a new bike. I'd take off the wheel, check how the spacers fit into the oil seal onto the...

I sent a request to access to have a listen. Did you free the chain to spin it for this video?

I wouldn't think the frame is any different at all on any of the bikes, just the forks on the SM.

Hi Davis, I'm running a very similar use case to yours. I ride to the MX track near me (15 mins away, 10% battery each way), and then hit a bunch of laps before riding home. All I have to remove at the track is my number plate and underbar mirror. I usually disconnect the headlight too. I...

Resistance is because the motor is always "in-gear". Not sure what the clicking could be. Move the chain off the rear sprocket and spin the tyre.

My opinion is the bolt is more for theft, not to prevent the cradle opening while riding. Has anyone experience this? the mechanism has been solid for me at the MX track at least.
