    Stark Varg EX in excessive heat.

    Nissan Leafs had no active battery cooling. They worked in Phoenix, and they were still sold there, but they didn't last very long. The actual driving ranges were dropping from 90 miles to below 44 miles on a full charge. In 2021, Nissan started asking buyers to sign a CYA disclaimer that their...

    Activating the Stark MX phone microphone; how?

    You should ask Stark for a new phone. They promised a fully-functional phone with the bike. Nobody else seem to have microphone problems. I am not aware of any microphone mute function on an Android. It is just your phone.

    Moving Varg charger to different case

    Northern Tool 16” Strongway case == Harbor Freight Apache 3800 case ;-) I really like your idea to move the charger to one side and create one large storage compartment for all the cables, adapters, and extension cords!

    Stark Varg EX in excessive heat.

    I have no idea what the deal is with brittle zip ties in Arizona! It is not just new or old, and it is not just one brand. And, everything we buy is made in China anyway. I had a box of zip ties for 20 years in Michigan and never had a single problem with them. In Arizona, those 20-year-old zip...

    graphics kits

    These are some Stark Varg graphics kits available on Amazon. I only wanted to buy the numbers, but I didn't like any of the number styles that they have, and I don't want to pay $170 just for the numbers. So, I am on the lookout as well.

    Moving Varg charger to different case

    Yes, you need to let the charger cool. Or you can cut holes in the Pelican case like this if you don't mind the dirt and the dust that will get in. I prefer Pelican cases because the two cables and their plugs can be quickly retrieved and then put back inside and remain clean and away from...

    Stark Varg EX in excessive heat.

    I run A/C in my AZ garage June through September. Keeps those cars and motorcycles with their plastic and rubber parts from falling apart. Zip ties last only a few months here in Arizona before they shatter like glass. I have never seen such brittle zip ties when I lived in Michigan.

    Emergency kit?

    I think the Varg has a riveted chain with no master link. I do not understand the reason for this. Master links do not fail unless the clip is installed backward. Chains do not break either. They only jump off sprockets if too worn and stretched. I would prefer to have a chain with a master...

    Stark actually profitable... kinda

    True, but it also has access to X.com, which is not mainstream media. If there is some discrepancy between the mainstream media and what folks on X say about major things, such as tariffs and their application, Grok should be able to identify this pretty quickly. In theory. And I was told that...

    Stark trail mode

    I installed the LapTrophy app in my Stark phone and have been using it with some great success. For $4.99/mo you get your lap times and even three sector times spoken into your ear buds. This is way better than a mechanic/coach with a pit board! I need to post a thread about it. It's pretty cool.

    Oh, come on. Your links aren't working. I am not going to call anyone on the moon to verify what you wrote, no way.

    Minaj Group Buys Harley-Davidson

    Hey guys. It's all good. No Harley owners, poor retirees, or personal feeling were injured in the making of this joke. Humor remains part of our lives, which is great. There are numerous parody news and social media accounts such as the Onion, Babylon Bee, SNL, and many others. The fake news...
