did you need to do anything w/ the brake caliper to allow it to fit the larger rotor? I just got the kit today and am excited to install it

no street miles, but there have been a few fast sessions (short lived) on gravel roads.. again, the mousse actually looks fantastic, likely due to the amount of lube they use.. (more than I've ever seen)

There are threads on installing a batter warmer for folks who live in really cold places... (FWIW: the folks at Chicken Hawk Racing sell a really nice option, Custom Built Flexible Insulated Heating Jackets: Cost: $685. Each Prices are FOB our facility in Red Hook, NY, David Podolsky...

My EX came w/ mousses (LOVE that they do this!) and I'm now at 500 miles and the rear is getting pretty soft. On my last ride, a ton of mousse gel came out of (primarily one of) the rim sidewalls, which made me concerned the bead got unseated.. What I likely should have done, is clean the tire...

Thanks all, just picked up the NiceCNC, and got an additional discount today! ($85 total for the guard AND 240mm disc!)

I'm not aware the "phone" charges while on the bike, I think you need a cord for that? (I'd LOVE to be incorrect, but when it's left on the bike and the bike is fully charged it will continue to drain the "phone" battery... Also, I'm in the same boat w/ the "phone" starting back up after I...

I've been informed that Stark is having issues creating the rear brake guard they sold me (Ti) and will be issuing a refund. I still need one, any thoughts around an aftermarket guard that fits?

yea, it's a TON of cake for sure.... also, KYB is exceptionally tunable, and well regarded as being a premium platform for tuning. appreciate you keeping us posted on the journey! (Do you feel the Raven fork was worth it?)

I'll be interested to hear what you end up doing to the shock to match the fork. (Why didn't you get the Natty?) Jeff is "awfully proud" of that suspension, (meaning, it's incredibly expensive compared to letting a tuner optimize the stock setup) which is what's kept me from going that direction.

My guess is Eddie Karlsson has spent considerable time with the Stark engineers to come up with optimal power curves for enduro. Anyone know of how us mortals could access them?

..."before you take the bike out for the first ride..." :) Totally agree, I'm not one typically to plaster logos all over my bike (I'm not a sponsored athlete, and don't want to pretend I'm one..) That said, I've seen some custom graphics that are really cool looking, which is what I'm...

I'm noticing the plastic on our Varg's scratch really easily... so while I don't normally do graphics kits, I'm considering it.. Curious what people have used and loved (or hate - avoid) (Yes, I know how to use a search engine, I just love leveraging the communities experience) Thanks!

a buddy who used to work for Alta told me they always took a tow strap w/ them (as they rode w/ other ICE bikes), that way if you run out of juice getting back you can get towed and use the regen to get enough juice back in the bike to get home... I think the mentions of being able to remove...

Question to folks who've fitted their bikes w/ the LHRB AND kept the foot pedal (using a double banjo bolt). Does the rear brake feel "soft" or do you get as good of modulation as you would w/ just the LHRB and the foot pedal removed?

My EX did 45 miles (over 5.5 hours) of challenging single track, and a good bit of fire roads (to connect the singles..) I returned to the van w/ 15%, but had a good chunk of the miles back to the van downhill (of course, I had to go up initially). What I'm seeing is that speed is what kills...
