    Varg - Gear Oil Change

    I used the right size torx and actually used different bits which were new. I think you touched on it somewhat, the machining on the bolt itself was poor and the material was very soft and subject to heat and different material mating. That Stark changed the design of the bolt (which is a good...

    Varg - Gear Oil Change

    Interesting. When I contacted them about it they sent me replacements of the old style. But I am glad they fixed it. BTW how did you remove your stripped one? I have posted pics of how to chisel it out since I had do it twice.:eek::eek::eek: And thanks for your post BTW!

    Deals on Starks?

    At 11,999 I would spend the extra 1,000 and get brand new. Plus, you can get exactly what you want. My luck with demos and leftovers is usually the price doesn't make up for some feature or extra that I want. I haven't been looking but 13k is around the going price here in the Northeast. I got...

    California Plated Varg SM

    Let us know how it goes in Ma or any other New England locale. Motorbikes+ in Portsmouth is selling them up here on the North Shore.

    California bill could potentially ban portable generators

    Well if you live in a condo HOAs don't allow generators or even storing gasoline. They don't like solar panels either but there are ways around it.

    About to pull the trigger need some advice

    Very cool!! I am using my Delta Pro to top off, I do mostly trail and enduro which is less taxing than moto of course. I got a portable solar panel and I am able to charge up the Delta on the porch of my condo and nobody even knows I have it.:cool: Normally solar stuff if frowned on by HOAs...

    About to pull the trigger need some advice

    What dealer are you using? I bought my bike from Motorbikes+ in NH they were excellent. I got the alpha with 18" FB and it was about a 4 week wait. That was a little before the warehouses were stocked I guess. I got exactly what I wanted from the dealer and it was worth the wait for me at least...

    Enduro Set up?

    I agree with most of what @AL_V said. The only real difference is he is bigger than me so the suspension wasn't too bouncy for me when I got it. Beyond that, in the slow gnarl the power delivery and control are just superb. And I am a smaller guy and have done almost no mods yet. It does take...

    Enduro Set up?

    @skomarmy BTW all that said this is the best enduro/trailbike I have ever owned. My last ICE bike was a 2020 KTM 300 XC-W and the Stark is not just better but it is way better.

    Enduro Set up?

    Stock tubes are not usable for enduro in my experience. They suffer with log, root, and rock crossings (hard front wheel taps for example) plus, once mud and water invaded they were shot --they are plastic. I got like 5 rides out of them in mud season in New England. They might hold up better...

    Stark Future Customer Support

    There were some issues with the parts pages at Stark Future. They seem to be addressed now.

    Thread Dedicated to Keeping Track of Firmware Versions

    It would be good if Stark had a page with official firmware revisions with release notes that listed features, fixes, and known issues. They are probably still trying to figure out how they want to provide it and potentially charge for special revisions.

    Varg production numbers / VIN

    The Pirelli Scorpion tires are actually much better than I expected and might be worth a run through for many riders --I don't do moto so take it for what it is worth. I replaced the tubes after about 5 rides as they just couldn't take the kind of riding I do (mostly gnarly slow enduro/trail...

    Varg - Gear Oil Change

    Interesting idea.Very cool. This is pretty typical for Euro made metal work in my experience. Euro metal work and machining has long been a complaint with KTM and other Euro made stuff like Bosch, Siemens, and BMW and etc. I am glad Stark is addressing it and it seems pretty quickly. Too often...

    Varg - Gear Oil Change

    The machining on that plug is not good as well and the aluminum is really soft. That combined with different metal crush washer(copper), plus heat/cool cycle, plus what you have found increase the chances for failure. I have had to chisel more than one out already. I reached out to Stark...
