    Sprocket Selection - Ludicrous? Maybe, but it's working for me. Custom foot pegs. Still want a clutch.

    Yes, but you have to be able to get to it and hold it. On the Alta, you just whack the kill switch and you're safe. The Stark had looped out on me several times. It's pretty dangerous, in my opinion.

    Varg Phone is Garbage

    Or even better, when your teenage kids get ahold of the phone and you find some interesting pictures and website traffic on it because they don't know that internet history is a thing 😄

    Tip to re-establish Bluetooth connection between phone and bike

    Mine disconnected after I had it on the charging stand and tried walking around with the phone so I could monitor it while doing other things. I haven't figured out how to reconnect it yet, but I'll try these tips. Thanks for sharing.

    About the clutch, I couldn't agree more. If they could set it up to simply feather the power the way we're used to on an ICE bike, it would go a very long way to keeping the majority of ICE riders happy and adoption would be easier. I own both and hate the fact that neither my Alta or Stark...

    Stark Varg Stolen 4-27-2025

    So they can power out on, but it won't go into drive mode, correct? You would think they would try to power it on and give it a go at some point. But it's the bike itself using an IMEI or some output signal? I thought only the phone did that. Regardless, I'm hopeful you can recover the bike. I...

    Interest poll: What kind of charger would get your money on the table?

    I think if Stark had any brains in their collective heads, they would figure out a way to include public charging capability to the EX models. I've touted this many times since getting my Alta EXR (and continue to gripe about it on my Varg) that the single largest reason road electrics are...

    Varg comfort seat options for trail riding

    Finally got some pictures of the seat installed on my bike. I hadn't really had a chance to ride it, but it's pretty nice compared to the stock seat. It took a while to get it back from Renazco, but James did a great job on it. The pictures are with my son sitting on it (5'10", 147lbs for...

    Looking for 3d model of upper triple clamp.

    Do you have any CAD software? I can completely recommend solidworks student edition (or veteran edition, if you are active/former duty). It takes a bit to learn, but you can mock up just about anything really quick with it.

    Varg comfort seat options for trail riding

    It's similar to a comfort seat. It's flat and wide on the top, so it supports me pretty well. Foam is wide at the back and narrow up front for cornering. The foam itself is pretty dense, so maybe a bit stiffer than the stock foam, but much thicker, so it doesn't give you the pressure point in...

    Varg comfort seat options for trail riding

    I just got my new seat from Renazco Racing. I didn't take any pictures of it yet, but was going to 80hp pulls in the bike this afternoon on some pretty bumpy dirt roads and the seat performed really well. I got it in all suede so the grip is really nice. I'm post pictures of it when I get a chance.

    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    At that point, why not just use the MX version? It's not like the battery is going to give you any realistic range improvements. 6.5 / 7.2 = 90.27, so you're only getting 9.72% larger battery in the EX. At 35 miles of range on the MX, it goes up to 38.4 miles on the EX. I mean, more range is...

    HANDGUARDS

    I was considering bark busters for mine. But wasn't sure how to modify the bar ends to put in the tip bolts. I put them on my Alta, so I would assume it's nearly the same. Haven't had the gumption to go tearing into the new bike (Stark) just yet. I do like the idea of the Enduro guards, even if...

    Phone Screen Repair

    Nice! I've attempted to do screens on phones before, but haven't been successful. I'm glad to see this one is pretty straight forward to fix.

    General Rawrr Mantis

    I have a Surron Light Bee X in addition to my Stark and Alta. The little ebikes are fun enough (although the quality you kind of have to learn to ignore, unless it's the only one you've ever had). They're great for practicing lots of things related to the bigger bikes (wheelis, stoppies, pivot...
