I called and spoke to Josh Hill's dad last summer (I think it was), real nice guy. I invited Josh to join the Alta team for last years 24 Hour at Starvation Ridge race. His dad liked the idea, told me to send an email with the details, that he would mention it to Josh. I sent the email and never...

A recent video tour of Josh Hill's riding compound in Oregon. Looks killer. Some misc Alta content sprinkled in (2:40 mark and a couple other times). Dude can ride (recently qualified for the mains in a few SX races as a short notice fill in rider). Amazes me how fast he is in the trees.

Blasphemer! Lol.

I've seriously considered setting up my MXR as an SM, its so much fun on the street, even with full knobbies and 21/18 wheels/tires. Decided keeping my license is more important then hooning around on my Alta. Still, it is tempting, Lol.

I don't understand it either. Why did they pay for the tech if they can't use it? Now, 4+ years later, the tech has been dormant (as far as we know) while others continue to push the envelope. At what point is the "old" Alta tech irrelevant? 4-5 years is a long time in this ever evolving...

Regarding the fact that most tracks are currently in the middle of nowhere, keep in mind that with electric dirt bikes, tracks can be put almost anywhere. The loud and annoying sound of current ICE bikes and the typical negative reactions to it will no longer be an issue. Tracks and trails will...

I bought a Luna X1 e-mtb bike last fall, only took it on a couple of rides before the weather turned. I like it so far, hoping to kickstart a fitness effort with it when it warms up a bit here. And I would not recommend buying an e-mtn bike from Luna, bike arrived with all kinds of obvious...

PNW Dirt Talk group: PNW Dirt Talk | Awesome to see an Alta out there ripping

Spotted this pic on the Alta group of FB, wondering if its anyone on the forum? Probably from this past weekend 1/21-1/23 sometime. Cool pic. And I've spent a lot of time in this arena years ago, but it was packed with kids and their (crazy) horses, Lol.

So much hand wringing, pearl necklace clutching, and general skepticism about this bike. I don't get it. It will either be what they say it is, or not. We will know soon enough. In the meantime, the BIG news about this bike is the amazing response too it in the form of pre-orders. There is...

If that's the case, try a very small amount of light lubricant like Marvel Mystery Oil or the like -if- you can drop it on the motor shaft. Position it so the lubricant will work its way in, spin the blade a bit to help it seep in. "Repaired" a number of old fans and window a/c units doing...

Same. Love my Alta in the PacNW muddy, rooty, gnar. Map 1, easy on the throttle, low tire pressure, tractors right up almost everything. Also love on bigger climes, traction allowing, Map 3, nail it like a 250 2 st, and rail up hillsides. So versatile, so much fun.

Thank you so much for participating on our forum. As you have seen we have some of the most passionate e-dirt bike people in the world here. And we vary from extremely knowledgeable to not too knowledgeable, so we appreciate you filling us in when and where you can. I think I speak for all of...

Yes thanks for the detailed write up and pioneering this important repair! -Ed

Interesting MX Large interview with founder Anton Wass from Dec. 18, 2021: MX Large | Anton Wass interview - Stark Future "I don’t really want to comment about on how many orders we already have at the moment, but orders are already coming in fast, and the numbers are rising quickly. Right now...

The first Altas came out in 2016? I find it entirely believable that in every area of performance the Stark Varge in 2021 is an improvement over the Alta. I don’t know why that is so hard to believe, but apparently it is, Lol. But again, we will see. Meanwhile I’m enjoying the anticipation...

Josh Hill, top level pro mx/sx rider. Tortelli, world MX champion. They are both saying it handles as good as the current crop of 450 mx bikes and the weight is right there too. I don't know why you're so skeptical, do you really think Hill and Tortelli would risk their reputations by...

I think the handling improvements alone are going to be incredible. Josh Hill was talking about how well it handles and how its not front end heavy like the Alta. They modeled all of the modern MX bikes and built the bike close to those specs as opposed to the Alta which seems to have been built...

With Josh Hill and Sebastian Tortelli putting their reputations on the line with it, I'd say its a pretty good bet is a step up in all areas of performance then our beloved Altas. And Peronnard too. Some big well respected names in on this, bodes well. Plus by the time most of our delivery...

Alta manuals if you don't yet have them. And welcome, bunch of very helpful peeps here. 2017 & 2018-2019 Alta Redshift Owners Manual "Resources" part of the forum, very helpful to review: Resources
