I’ll clarify that the offer was not that lucrative - no one was going to get rich quick. Our last investors would make a relatively small amount, our early investors would get some of their money back, and the founders would have become salaried employees at HDMC. I wouldn’t call it “extremely...

@happyinmotion and @Theo neither of you are wrong, but we didn't have much optionality at the time. Of course we wanted to be a stronger position, but prior to the SPAC bubble, it was nearly impossible for Alta to raise money - we put the Redshift into initial production on $25m total into the...

Marc here. Haven’t been on this forum for the last 5 years or so, but happy to be back. Great work on this, @krankit and really nice to be back in touch with @Philip. I’ll try to check in here to answer questions or offer clarification over the next week, especially after Part 2 drops. I...

lol, I was thinking the same thing. Yes, pick up a Redshift. Also cut Stark some slack. This shit is haaaaard. Also, @Rashid510, you’re a goddamn hero.

Been two years but I’m going to bump this on the odd chance that the VINs turn up. Reminder: SMR (2018 EX converted to SM and R drivetrain, on-board charger) VIN 56PARACM1JB00078 in white, and a 2016 MX VIN 56PARABM6HB000010 in white.

LOL. Had a lot of moments like that over the last two years. Thankfully, this one is relatively low on the trauma scale.

I can't. Altamotors.co was part of the BRP purchase and is not managed under my personal account, and if it were it should have been transferred to BRP.

Our original URL (pre-dating the Alta Motors name), faster-faster.com expired but I think can still be recovered. If anyone on this site wants it and will take over the payments, I can flip it back on and transfer it for the fees owed (guessing but can't see that it's $15-25 of annual fees)...

Regarding the bleed, I had better luck with a bottom bleed. Top could be done with our shop vacuum bleeder and constant air, but for home the bottom bleed with a syringe worked better for me.

Bumping this old thread to corroborate (as said CEO) that I requested the change to 10mm from 9mm. Not a supply issue, much more of a feel issue. I wanted to make sure that the front and rear brakes had a similar level of firmness and pressure to lock up. (Given more weight and traction on the...

Incredibly, no. Which is why people use that spot for shady deals. From what was seen, the plate and graphics are gone (so it's all white bodywork) as are the shrouds. But it was on supermoto wheels, and the coincidence is too high for it to not be my bike. I think they must have hotwired It...

SMR was spotted in SF at Potrero Safeway parking lot partially torn down (I’m assuming to Hotwire since dude rode away on it). Neither me nor PD got there fast enough...

They stole the charger too. They knew what they were doing.

Looks like we have footage from across the street. Reviewing now. Cameras in garage it turns out we’re dummies. Thanks Chandler Property Management. :rolleyes:. unfortunately the MX wasn’t insured... dumb, but I never bothered for my off-road bikes. ironically that bike got stolen once before...
