    Lets ditch the gas vs. electric debate and get to talking about owning an Alta

    Your electrician should know right what to do. He should also easily be able to put a plug together for you. There are multiple style 240v plugs, I’d defer to whatever he prefers. I’d check with Alta to confirm this, but I believe the adapter plug should be wired so that both ‘prongs’ of...

    Lets ditch the gas vs. electric debate and get to talking about owning an Alta

    Thats really neat that a firmware update can accomplish that. The plug wouldn't be hard, you just need to know the type of 240v plug to match your outlet and a trip to Home Depot/Lowes for some hardware. I'm sure we could help walk you through it.

    Lets ditch the gas vs. electric debate and get to talking about owning an Alta

    Actually I didn't realize the SMs had on board chargers. What are the details of the update?

    Thats funny, I guess you could actually hear the music on one of these!

    Redshift EX videos

    Great videos! Those are some stunning views in that second one, absolutely beautiful! I'd love to ride there. That must have been the most quiet motorcycle gang in the history of motorcycles :p!

    Video of one MXR owners total ride time

    That is similar to what I have here at home, so if I can get those kind of ride times I'll be quite satisfied.

    New MX-R

    I’m thinking KTM isn’t real happy with Alta at the moment.

    Which maps are for what? (MX, MXR, EX)

    Ha ha, I was also wondering about the possibility of a reverse! I think I’m getting lazy in my old age!

    New MX-R

    Welcome Ray! I’m supposed to be getting my MXR next week. I also did a demo in a ‘17 MX and was sold on them after that. Can’t wait to hear from more owners on how they like them. Steve

    Gear oil change

    Actually this was the first I heard of doing a oil change after a few hours. In my boredom waiting for this bike I broke down and read through the 2017 manual online, and apparently I missed that. Actually I didn't see the 1000 hour oil change interval either. Did I mention my attention span...

    Which maps are for what? (MX, MXR, EX)

    Hopefully in the future they implement some degree of customization to the maps in these. I can understand them holding off on it here in the bikes infancy, but once things get settled in for them in the market maybe we will see some user tune ability.

    Which maps are for what? (MX, MXR, EX)

    Just talking out loud here, but what if they used that button to toggle a adjustable degree of regenerative braking, so you could use it as needed like if you were descending a long grade. Does anyone else think that could be useful?

    Which maps are for what? (MX, MXR, EX)

    The center button isn't used for anything, correct?

    Ready to ride in the northeast

    Oh man don’t tell me that. The dealership is already probably ready to block my calls.

    Ready to ride in the northeast

    No, I’m waiting most impatiently. The weather here is still unseasonably cold and still delivering occasional snow storms so that helps. Last I was told it was scheduled to be shipped from Alta on March 30th, so hopefully it’s in route.

    My Redshift EX upgrades

    Ok, just curious. I’m planning on adding the LHRB as well. Supposedly Alta is designing a kit but it sounds like the foot pedal will be eliminated, so I’m undecided which way I would want to go.

    My Redshift EX upgrades

    Very nice. Do you find that you use the foot brake less and less with having the hand brake or do you still depend on it for certain situations?
