    SV software license, potential subscriptions, smart bike ramifications etc

    Interesting wording now on the Varg main page under the Technical Highlights section and expanding the "Stark Varg Display , Phone & App" section. Pasting below. The last paragraph mentions the subscription. So it seems that they are sticking pretty close to what they first announced. The...

    SV software license, potential subscriptions, smart bike ramifications etc

    Varg discussed this from the beginning. They will be offering a subscription for extended services, mainly around the features on the display/gauge. Owners will get certain permanent features and some will be unlocked with subscriptions. Things like Navigation, storing 100 modes, and certain...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    Nah, no manufacture backdates a model year. The model year won't be the year a person pre-ordered it. It's the year of manufacturing (or the following year). All the powersports and vehicle manufacturers have always done it that way. If a model is delayed, the model year is determined and...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    Why would you want to swap the battery while the bike is still powered on (hot swappable)? Ha. Just giving you a hard time. I know you mean "quick change" and not "hot swappable" which there is no reason for and would require two power sources. Unless... they could make an optional...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    The EU has stringent rules and requirements for motocross bikes? Nothing like that in the USA, for motocross or enduro (non-street legal, race bikes), so hard to relate I guess. And only requirement for trail riding any dirtbike in forest sevice and BLM land is spark arrestor in the exhaust, so...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    An additional 9 month delay itself, on top of the previous delays, doesn't bother me that much. Excited to get bikes, but another delay was expected. Only part that bugs me is in the video he states "a few months delay; Log in to see" and then I log in and it's 9 month delay. He set me up for...

    What is everyone's revised delivery dates?

    First bike: Dec 14, 2021 order date. Original estimate: Sept 24, 2022. Updated/Current Estimate: Dec 24, 2022. Second Bike: Feb 08, 2022 order date. Original estimate: April 21, 2023. Current Estimate: April 21, 2023 (no change) I don't need or want my bike until June 2023, so I hedged my bets...

    Battery construction etc

    Gary, Does your description apply to Varg battery, Kart battery, or both (same tech)? Assuming the last, but wanted confirmation. Thanks.

    Stark Data aQ

    Dash gauge is smartphone based. You can even add a card and activate and use as your phone. Assume it will have GPS, gyro etc. built in like all smartphones. Varg has said their will be all manner of ride statistics available including "air time", so probably some other neat stuff. We don't yet...

    Price increase 1k

    Interesting. They must have changed their tune as before they had mentioned transfers. If that is the case, then the two options are cancellation or purchase-and-sell.

    Price increase 1k

    Definitely. However, all reserved bikes will easily sell, be that to the original order placer, or to someone they transfer their order to, especially in a situation where their order price was $1,000 cheaper than current MSRP plus was placed a long time ago resulting in a much earlier build...

    Price increase 1k

    Exactly. Those of us that ordered a couple bikes, spread out over time so we could take delivery of whichever one worked best with our timeline, will be in good shape. I'll accept whichever one of mine works out the best timewise and sell the other one for whatever the current price is at the...

    Price increase 1k

    An order submitted today (June 04, 2022) has an estimated delivery date of August 15, 2023. You can go to the Stark futures website and click "Order Now" and it will list the current estimated delivery date before you even choose options. Choosing options does not change the estimated delivery...

    Price increase 1k

    That is correct. First class way for Stark to handle it. They must have learned a lesson from the poor way Rivian handled it. This notice gave eveyone a few days to get off the fence and order at the original price or choose to wait and pay the updated price at a later date. And, nice that all...

    Reservations & Delivery/Due Dates

    I tend to plan for multiple scenarios since "hope and wishes" have historically let me down. Ha. As mentioned previously, I have two bikes on order. One estimated delivery of 9/24/2022 and one estimated delivery of 04/21/2023. My intent is to own one bike and have it in possession by June 01...

    Reservations & Delivery/Due Dates

    Alright, you guys have me convinced I was being way over optimistic for them. Ha. I just figured 5 or 10k bikes per 20 or 10 countries didn't sound unrealistic since there are 700,000 - 900,000 motorcycle sales in the US alone each year. And Honda alone sells 19.3 million motorcycles a year...

    Reservations & Delivery/Due Dates

    I just ordered a second Varg. As we thought, the first two letters of the order number appear to be initials, but the number does appear to be consecutive. First order: 12/14/2021. Estimated delivery date of 9/24/2022. Order #CC12268 Second order: 02/08/2022. Estimated delivery date of...

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    I didn't lose interest. It just hasn't been offered for sale yet or I would have bought and been trail riding one for the last two years. Ha. The KTM freeride has much too short of range and so the Storm was the only thing in the works that was fullsize and had more range than the two little...

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    Several channels have made comment that demo, preproduction bikes will be distributed this summer. So we'll see plenty of testing and ride opinions prior to needing to go through with a purchase. Paying customers won't be the first to ride and review these. This type of rollout (announcement...
