Yes, I know how public warning systems work.
It's a feature of the Stark because no other motorbike uses a phone for a dashboard so no other motorbike will get these warnings.
NZ Civil Defence sends out tsunami alerts to our phones when there's a tsunami risk. Like right now with the magnitude 8 quake off Kamchatka.
So of course my Stark picked it up and started reading it out automatically.
Given I ride at the coast pretty often, this could be a good thing. Even...
Just presume 7-8% more capacity per year, every year.
That's what lithium-nmc cells have been doing for the last decade. So for 8-10 kWh in the same weight we're looking at 3-5 years.

The rear fender has a pair of hidden bolts under the side plastics. They go into the subframe, or rather they screw into threaded inserts in the subframe tubes.
So of course the inserts have come loose. Literally Anyone else have this happen?
Stark's recommended solution is to put high...
Ok, geek time. I've been recording every ride and every charge for my series one MX, over 160 hours of riding and 98 rides.
I though that terrain would make a huge difference. It does.
Rides round here tend to be:
Hardpark - gravel forest roads and fast trail rides
Mud - slippery sloppy bush...
We know Royal Enfield invested in Stark and we can see why now.
The latest development versions of the HIM-E looks to have two Stark batteries side-by-side. The split-lines are identical. They do have a new design for the outer cover with the same style as the Flying Flea.

First up, this is great investigative journalism. Thanks @krankit. And thanks to @Philip for the years of work supporting the community.
Alta only sold 800 bikes? At a loss? Oof. That's a difficult negotiating position.
I'd like to say Alta was fundamentally too early, the tech not ready yet...
Yeah, if the claims in this video are true then Harley did not act in good faith and did kill Alta.
I'm a partner for a tech VC fund. This is a big chunk of what I do for a living - helping startups developing new technologies to partner with corporates to get to scale. So here's my thoughts in...
Lots of steep rooty clay climbs round these parts. Incredibly slippery and very easy to dig holes.
Turning it down to 20 hp has been my trick, plus carefull throttle control and softer suspension.
I would love to see a regional breakdown of Stark sales.
The US market is declining but the rest of the world is still buying bikes. If I look at their map of dealers, then there's a lot in Europe and plenty in places I wouldn't have expected. Tahiti? Damn. And for the markets where bikes are...
