    Broken display - solution?

    Also, it's my understanding that someone who is electronics capable may possibly be able to make a CAN bypass that would allow the bike to function without the display in the CAN loop. This would only be a band-aid fix for a bike that doesn't function with a broken display.

    Broken display - solution?

    This is the best avenue to pursue for display protection IMO.

    Code 36 service required???

    I think this emphasizes the fact that we need to have a resource to repair these batteries. This will sound self serving coming from one of the lucky two who are apparently SOL with battery faults, but it's only a matter of time until other batteries will need attention in one way, shape or...

    MXR IN THE NEW ENGLAND SNOW ❄️ Mode 1 is the snow ❄️mode =FUN!!!

    Interesting... what would it do when you charged it, just hang at 75%? Unfortunately I got the code 36 after Alta had shut down, so its my problem now it seems. Mine does charge fully and runs full power but I haven't had a chance to see how my range was affected. You can read the details of...

    Did you have a code 35 or 36? If so would you mind posting your bike info? We are putting together a list of bikes that had battery issues to see we can guess when they improved their battery process. Year, model and last 3 of VIN is what we would need. Thanks.

    Which one should I get? Got it!

    Without knowing the cut-off for the battery issues I’d go for the latest VIN. The demo falls in the range of known 2018 MXR battery failures.

    Are you referring to the single plug behind the number plate/light? What for switch did they use on it?

    Bankruptcy would seem inevitable at this point, though that doesn’t necessarily mean the end either.

    List of aftermarket products for the Alta

    As far as the shrouds, rear fender, side panels and such I would think at some point if Alta goes under Acerbis will start selling those items aftermarket. I don't know what else (if anything) they make for the bike.

    Alta Factory LHRB

    Honestly no, mostly MX but the trail riding I have done I thought having the control in your hand was quite an advantage. Didn't miss the foot brake when riding, but for some that can be so ingrained that it's hard to change.

    Alta Factory LHRB

    I use the handlebar only setup. Didn't like it at first. Only time I really miss the foot brake anymore is if I'm stopped on a hill and want to take my hands off the bars. Can't "put it in gear" and shut it off, can't step on the brake to hold it there. Other than that I love it.

    WTB: studded paddles

    Awesome. That part of the country is just incredible. Jealous! Ditto on the drone comments, they are not real popular it most places.
