Definitely keep it in mind. I’d come up!

I’m down with that! Happy to help with track maintenance too!

That port is pressed into the tube, and there is a raised rib on the outside. Chances are if you were able to access the inside of the tube well enough to grind a precise groove, you would have ground the tube paper thin. Also, the tube is likely more money to replace in the event you wanted...

Some suspension tuners are not equipped to make this modification, and some are not experienced in tuning for the Alta’s unique characteristics. Here is one I know does the lowering on the WP air forks; Moto Lab LLC | KTM, Husqvarna Dirt Bike Suspension Tuning & Setup I have not heard if they...

Just to follow up and for future reference, I ended up purchasing an eBay set of AER inner cartridges to lower/modify. The AER’s you have to shorten the damper rod on the air side to properly lower. The dampening side you can either shorten the same way or (to the best of my knowledge) use a...

Looks great! I’m not a seasoned competitor, so I can’t help with race advice but you certainly seem to be on the right track! @OneLapper does similar events so he might have some words of wisdom for you!

No, no one sold out, they went down fighting but deeper pockets prevailed.

Just got done lowering my wife’s suspension. Shaved seat plus 2” lowered suspension. She can almost touch tippy toes both feet now! Lots of shops can perform this job for you, I can direct you to some that I know of. The shock can be lowered with traditional travel limiting spacers but the...

You’re asking the wrong group of nut jobs... we have been able to so far keep bikes running. It’s not as easy as walking into a dealership though. Lots of new owners since the shutdown, these bikes are so good, it’s a travesty they went under.

If you’re good, I’ll let you wear it for a little :LOL:

Onelapper is the northeasts finest official/unofficial Alta service rep (without a jacket). Not only does he have a laptop, he makes the cables!

I jam a piece of foam in there to cut down on the mud accumulation. It’s definitely a debris catcher.

Alta in pink? Reminds me of early 90’s Yamaha colors! Getting this bike all ready for my mrs. Installed a Seat Concepts low seat foam and cover and of course the Team AOF graphics kit. Another job well done from Blake at FAMmx! Finishing up the lowered suspension soon as well. Little shout...

If it has the latest firmware, and has some time on it with the latest firmware, then it's very likely not affected. If it doesn't have the latest firmware and this internal problem in the battery exists, the software will not detect the issue and the bike will seem fine, but the reality is the...

There was a battery issue that occurred in a small number of 2018 MXRs up until the early to mid 400 VIN range.

I think the moose stand would be the safer bet, the pro moto stands are MUCH cooler but the stands retracted position may be an issue. I have one on my RMZ but haven’t made the time yet to see if there would be an obvious interference problem. If it looks like it may work I’ll dig a little...

I’m specifically talking about the peg mounts. I believe a pro moto or a moose side stand that is designed to be mounted between the mount and the frame may be adapted for an Alta if we identify an somewhat similarly sized peg mount.

Does anyone know if the Alta’s foot peg mounts were similar to any existing OEMs? I understand the pegs are similar to a Yamaha design. I’m wondering if the mount itself is similar as well, specifically the mounting hole locations.

Sounds like we are arriving Friday. Onelapper will have his party bus, I’ll be bringing my RV. Nothing set in stone yet. We’d like to do a night ride and test the lighting for the race and I think we should try doing one of these just for fun... If Bloak is able to come, and if Matt has a...
