Warning: Explicit pictures to follow. There may be pictures of naked Altas.

That probably explains it.

Interesting. My crappy little video about building a quiet generator shed actually has over 50k views. I guess people are interested in generator sheds! Go figure!

I tried for a while to get a Pro Moto Billet kickstand to work. The mounting holes on the Yamaha version were the correct spacing, but the geometry was a bit off to clear the swingarm. I could have machined a spacer, but it would have moved the pegs outward by about an inch. Which might have...

Looks like AJ finally took the Alta to a real track and hunted some ICE bikes. On the downside, he also finally got to experience thermal limiting. On the plus side, the horn is still hilarious every time I hear it, especially while flying over a huge jump. PS, has anyone installed the horn...

Maybe it is trying to tell you that you have a bad ground on the circuit, and the GFCI is working as it should. Do you have a circuit tester, like one of these?

Bryan’s remarks above brought up a question. Has anyone talked to AJ Catanzaro about swapping his EXR maps to MXR ones? I was curious if he might be having any issues making jumps in lower maps. Or maybe he just leaves it in map 4. He was talking in his latest vlog about picking up a second...

Sweet build! If you want to know how to take apart an Alta, there are some good shots. Clearly, I need my own CAD/CNC guy. And a welder guy. And a carbon-fiber guy. And a sweet honkin' sponsorship from RedBull to pay for it all.

That second link has SO many red flags! - No pics. - Original owner --> but NO keys. - VIN from a 2008 KTM. - ALL CAPS! My BS radar is beeping.

Well, keep in mind that an Alta "battery" isn't just one battery. It's more like 504 AA-batteries strapped together. What are the chances that one of those individual cells (or the tiny little wire that connects them together) will eventually develop an issue? I'm frankly amazed that these...

Wow, I love that guy’s truck and those beautiful Altas. Wish I had those.

“Do your rides not last as long as they used to? Are your riding partners disappointed in your decreased endurance? Perhaps you are experiencing something called Premature Electro-depletion. Our councilors here in the Range Anxiety Forum can help with a wide range of practical advice, biased...

Safety gear is for you sheeple with internal organs and copious amounts of blood to spill. Us skeletons know our freedoms and embrace riding like totally brainless idiots. And… we’re dead. So that helps.

Should we just start a sub-forum specifically called “Range Anxiety”?

You’ll adapt your riding style pretty quickly. Also remember that full throttle in 3rd gear on an internal combustion bike is only like half throttle on the Alta (only one gear). Sort of. That’s not exactly analogous, but it is a different approach to the power delivery. My advice is to not...

It’s that time of year again! At least I am consistent. I think the Alta “ribs” in the shroud really lend themselves to skeletal memes.

To be fair, I and my son usually get 3-4 hours out of a charge, we might go 25-30 mph on some parts, we might go 15 on others. And some of the time we are just stopping and drinking some water or discussing the merits of Altas with total strangers that stop us on the ride. Average for the ride...
