Once bearings are out machine the bore of the pull rod out for the next time? Worst case scenario just replace the pull rod assembly. My bearings were toast so that's what I did. Still have the old pull rod.

So what happed with the E-clutches offered? Are they really available and has anyone bought one and tried it in the real world?

The Stark factory?! :muutt:

Don't care. I did, I will, bye.

The context is this thread is about M/C brake fluid. Then you jumped in about your civic.

That is Nice; for a stand. To bad they don't offer the bracket. At least we are closer to being on topic.

So what? Apples and oranges. My 2013 Korean car has 220 miles and never a brake flush but I don't ask for it the same as my bikes. Let's move on.

I only have this to add; remember that big Euro company that made orange motorcycles? KTM Future: Bajaj Bigwig Says "European Manufacturing Is Dead" - Adventure Rider

Heard it from a 3rd party who said his buddy is currently specing out equipment for a Stark Factory build in Mexico. Just sayin'

Jo Shimoda is REAL.

All this KTM and market future stuff is great but what about the side stand kit issue?

Probably, but if you're a brake dragger, race Super Moto or otherwise are extra heavy on the brakes the fluid suffers, requiring more frequent changes.

Don't over think it. Go with a good quality fluid like Motul 660 but more important, change/flush it with new every 6 months or more often under extremes conditions.

Nothing really new to see here but I think Stark is trying desperately to get as much market share, name recognition and dominance of the premium E bike market as fast as they can before other major manufactures get involved. I don't know in what aspects a competitor would improve on the Stark...
