In the end you could compare it to the rear end of the engines, since those are a bit further away from the "power source" and run bearings and a gear just like the Stark. Not in the amount of heat they are generating but more the environment in wich bearings seem to be perfectly happy and have...

That is something i think i will do to my SM setup. In MX/enduro it will become a mess i think. Along with removing my bashplate from now on. I do have an extra panel so i could just swap it when doing SM These are small not to intrusive things that i guess will make the biggest difference.

My hand rear brake is quite weak as wel however that might just be the concept of braking with a hand on a small disc.

Then the difference is in the disc or pads one would say...

Maybe an adapter to 240mm? The rear 240 disc of a Beta does fit. However offcourse it's too big for the caliper.

How is that value made up. Their cost price or my replacement price? Is a battery €3000 like in the store or whatever it costs them?

Yeah altough i don't think they will get it. As is the bike is pretty narrow and leaves little room for add-ons. Would be nice though!

Power consumption is pretty much what it gets. Heating mostly a problem at SM racing. On the street it's really hard to get the amount of heat in there that you can on a karting/SM track.

Why do you want that temperature to be so low and have you compared it to your Beta 430? I think you will be shocker by how hot that engine cases get. What i want to say is, what are you basing the lower numbers you want on? That powertrain has a temperature alarm wich is set there for a reason...

We saw 17' wheels, shorter suspension, bigger front rotor, 4 piston caliper up front. I think that will be about it.

That sure would help some. Best would be a constant supply of a thin layer of water. Best handheld option is something like this to apply a thin layer that then can evaporate. Only very little heat is transmitted through normal conduction that's why it will cool more with an ever maintained thin...

Spraying water with a bottle is rather inconvenient during riding. You could however having perforated tubes spraying a mist over it. The evaporation heat would cool the battery, if not everything is blown away directly. And why demi water? That little bit of deposit you get during a riding day...

In the beginning overheating issues were a lott more common. Some updates later we see way less overheating issues. Also in the beginning we saw are lott more acute shutting down due to heat. Now it's more reduced power. Edit: But we do love a good build, so do proceed, just know the result...

Well it does have cooling problems in SM. However that have little to do with the powertrain, but more the battery. Especially when 30min moto, 30min charging... repeat 5 times. We use fans during charging to cool the battery a bit and that does seem to work a bit to stretch how many laps we can...

I see that 60C as well on my powertrain and it does not bother. Has done that for almost 2 years, also with cold weather in the sand. I would first try to find if it overheats, it won't explode or something, it will just loose some power or if you ignore that might go into limb mode. And even...
