Another thing to consider is that electric bikes riders can hear people coming from behind better, which contributes to safety.

What you've written is true and maybe our Vargs are still the most reliable motocross bikes out there, cosidering the crazy amount of maintenance needed by gas bikes and their low reliability. I also add that you can stall a gas bike in the air (too much rear brake, fouling a plug, running out...

The new price sounds like awesome news for sure! Now it's even cheaper than a power station having the same capacity. Considering that the coolant only cools the inverter and the motor and that active cooling is an available option for charging, the inverter must somehow be involved while...

This is the second time I read about a jammed rear wheel in a Varg. It sounds pretty dangerous; when airborne, if I close the throttle with 100% regen braking, the front end of the bike dives; I guess that if the motor and the wheel stopped spinning suddenly, I would front flip. Also, those...

THUG LIFE Ahah actually I think that you are completely right!!!! Besides, as far as I've understood that EV noise they consider so awful comes mainly from the transmission and their transmissions make a similar noise; they just can't hear it because of their mufflers! Sorry for the offtopic...

If I recall correctly, when I leave the bike engaged it will automatically switch to neutral after some inactive time, I think a minute, and then it will automatically switch to standby after some minutes of inactivity. Therefore, I think that you can't leave it on. What was the status of the...

Same for me: they transferred the ownership.

Before noticing the worn spot I had removed and reistalled the guard, so I thought that maybe I had installed it in the wrong position. Therefore, I removed that guard again and reinstalled it, but this time I kept it pulled away form the stenchion while I was tightening the screws: now it seems...

Some time ago I noticed that the outer tubes of the fork had snap rings which, I supposed, held something and I didn't investigate futher. This evening I noticed that the right one is worn in a spot in which it seems like it may rub against the fork guard, which is pretty close to it, and that...

If the breather hose is the one highlighted in green in the attached picture of my bike, then apparently mine is routed in the same way.

Hey rayivers, I see in your signature that you own an Alta: does it have any problems with moisture in the gearbox? Does it have a breather hose? I'd like to know the answers for the same questions from someone who owns an E-XC Freeride or any other electric motorcycle with an oil lubricated...

Like many if you I guess, I'm not sure what to think; my YZ250 has similar hoses for the gearbox, the carbuator and the powervalve that as far as I know are not regulated via any kind of one way valve and yet it doesn't seem to me that there are problems with signficant amounts of water entering...

Thanks for the accurate clarification about that initialism. :) Now that I think about it, if it was indeed a thermal protection, or anyways some sudden power cut, I guess that maybe, when the motor stopped delivering power, the regen braking was activated, giving a feeling of locked wheel. So...

Not that I have the skills nor the racing licence to compete, but in Italy they will test some competition between the Varg and gas bikes in the Ama Expert-Rider Championship, where Ama stands for amatoriale, i. e. amateur, using the Racing Mode: link to the Italian Motorcycling Federation site...

What's the IP?

That actually sounds pretty dangerous! If I am flat out, I could be standing in the attack position with my weight forward and if it locks in that moment my body could end up in front of the handlebar, maybe in front of the front wheel. Or if it happens while airborne the bike will probably...

Sorry to hear that. Is it locked because of a mechanical problem like seized bearings or electric like the motor stuck in one position? Did it lock while in motion or you turned it on and it was locked??

So have you been able to remove the core of the valve stem to pour the sealant? On my front tube the core just spun with the valve inside the red stem. I have to say that the red tube has an advantage: it's easier to install. When I removed it I didn't have a replacement tube available yet and...

I think that disassembling that stuff can create a problem: moist air can enter those components and then, when the temperature will go below the dew point, there will be condensation. I have wondered how to prevent condensation in the battery etc. and I have come to the conclusion that they...

I don't miss shifting gears in motocross because I prefer using my forefeet to support my body, but I think that in supermoto I'd prefer shifting: do you agree? Do you think that overall the SM Varg gives you more fun than a gas bike? Have you tried backing it in? To me it feels like the regen...
