    EX: Traction control and whiskey throttle for Enduro

    Whiskey throttle of an electric bike is much quicker and more powerful than ICE. I own 3 electric bikes 2 Electric motion and 1 Alta. The word I would use to describe it is VIOLENT.

    Alta EX not charging, codes 007, 33, 37

    Alta EX not charging, codes 007, 33, 37. My Alta EX has shown code 33 for several years and the bike continued to work flawlessly. Now the bike will not charge and shows code 37 as well as 33 and when connected to charger displays the message “STOPPED 007 HV Isolation” the bike continues to...

    Cold weather storage

    I have been riding an Alta EX for 6 years. It’s stored in my unheated barn and ridden in temperatures as low as the high 20s F. I always store the bike fully charged and have never tried to charge it at temperatures below freezing. Lithium batteries do not like extreme temperatures and I doubt...

    I have a 2018 Alta EXR and a 2021 Electric Motion e pure with a clutch. I will not buy another motorcycle without a clutch. I’m not really sure that the 4 speed transmission is needed. Electric Motion is currently at the pinnacle of electric motorcycle development. They’re trying different...

    2019 Alta Redshift MXR code 36 in Fort Collins, CO

    I’ve had that code displayed for 4 years. If it runs ride it.

    Code 37 second time.

    I’ve had code 37 showing for over 6 months. The bike works fine and my Dad always said “if it ain’t broke don’t try to fix it” so that’s where I’m at. It is good to know that it probably has no moisture and that’s what makes a forum like this so valuable.

    Displays button functions (POLL)

    Anything that keeps these great bikes going will be great. I think I bought the last display Alta had as they folded. Can functions be added to the unused buttons on the OEM displays?

    Displays button functions (POLL)

    An alternative display would be great. Here’s what I would like in order of importance. 1: State of charge 2: hour meter 3: odometer 4: trip odometer 5: time of day (clock) I’m guessing that there are Alta’s not in use because of the lack of a replacement display unit. Thanks in advance for...

    Footpeg spring retainer

    Not really. I don’t recall any issues installing the YZ springs. The OEM spring simply is a poor design and reshaping it didn’t solve the problem to my satisfaction. My bikes an 2018 EX.

    Footpeg spring retainer

    Here’s a simple fix. Replace the springs with 2015 Yamaha YZ250F OEM. I have done this and it solves the problem.

    Broken display - solution?

    No I don’t have the old display. Here’s pics of my remount to a safer location behind the handlebars. I used 1”x1/16” aluminum angle from Lowe’s and made the mount using, hammer, hacksaw, 6” bench vise and a handheld drill. Took me 2-3 hours to construct.

    Broken display - solution?

    I just went through this with my EX the week before Alta ceased. They sent one the dealer that was cosmetically damaged (I cannot see a thing wrong with it). As they were out of stock and on back order. Yours looks just like mine. The LCD itself is cracked. I did take it apart and it has Alta...
