    Owner's Review Anyone else find Stark support crap?

    "Ever try to get warranty service on any other brand motocross bike, let alone 2 full years of warranty?" I would be happy to go and buy a new Yamaha with no warranty because I have had quite a few and never had an issue that would come under warranty. My stark has been out of action for over...

    Brand New Stark Varg EX Won’t Start — No LED, No Charging, No Bluetooth, No Response

    I have had this for most of the 19 months of MX ownership stark are clearly stalling in a big way, the way they see it is longer it takes to get fixed the longer before the next problem. Amazed they are still using the same design of actual buttons on the EX those have been an issue from the...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    Someone was telling me about a video with some kind of frame ( maybe like the old ATK chain thing? ) they built that went on the stark to help it in whoops, it worked but anton wass said it looked a mess get it off. I thought this might be the video but clearly not.

    Stark Varg MX vs EX fitment plastic

    That will be because all the EX's will have the gen 2 drive train which does not have those cables that the Gen 1 has.

    Stark's/ Adult electric bikes banned from UK enduro events

    Well we have had a surron lb for about 6 years, I have refused to buy ktm's for over 10 years but during covid all I could get was a freeride electric and had that for over 4 years then had the stark for 19 months but it has been out of action for about half that because of problems with it. Not...

    Stark's/ Adult electric bikes banned from UK enduro events

    Every chance you are correct we can all see what kind of business ktm are, could also be who ever makes the rules said they want to see a certain safety specification (no doubt there are many) that ktm did and stark did not do. One thing I do know it the best was to piss health and safety off...

    Stark's/ Adult electric bikes banned from UK enduro events

    Well I would think it is 95% starks not much else out there yet. When our bikes were designed and built as I understand it stark had very little/no communication with the FIM ACU AMA etc in fact there was a post on here that one of the top bods at the AMA said stark had had very little or no...

    Stark's/ Adult electric bikes banned from UK enduro events

    We took the stark and some ICE bikes to an enduro practice day yesterday which was actully an IOPD event not ACU but the organiser was telling me the ACU has relesed a document I assume this is it. Auto Cycle Union Ltd He said we could use the stark but not charge it and that was only because...

    Charging rate 2.7 or 3.3 ?

    We need the maximum charging rate possible at home or with generators at the track. We have a small track in the field behind the house which is the main reason we have electric off road bikes we want to be riding not waiting around for it to charge but not at the risk of burning the...

    Spinning threaded insert in sub frame

    Another problem, In the sub frame one of the threaded inserts/ riv nut/bollof/ nutsert kind of thing is spinning with a bolt stuck in it. No surprise as it is a round one, most gave up on these 20 years ago and used hexagon ones instead to stop them spinning especially as it is in soft aluminum...

    Charging rate 2.7 or 3.3 ?

    I am in the UK we have 220/240 volts 13 amp. You see my thread about the melted plug! that happened with the bike at 6% I fully charged it full speed 3.3kw so lesson learned if it is lower than about 40% I cut the power back to around 3.0 kw. I had a Ring Main put in the garage to help and only...

    Rear suspension play

    It is a build up of 5 pivot points in the shock mounts and rising rate linkages, a tiny bit in each, Much the same set up as most MX/Enduro bikes with the exception of ktm pds. I noticed some play in mine at relatively low hours compared to what I would expect on our Yamaha's. Maybe the bearing...

    Form Stark Varg Unsatisfied Customer group/Legal advice

    People go on about this 2 year warranty well the fact is you need it in a big way, I have had plenty of new ICE bikes that even if they did have a 2 year warranty there would have never been a valid claim. Believe me I have "trashed the brand and the customer service" because that is what they...
