I placed an order with a local dealer on March 29th, just got an email from Stark today noting it's shipped from their US warehouse with a VIN and ETA to dealer of 5 to 7 days. 4003 for the VIN for those tracking. That was WAY faster than I anticipated, I didn't think it'd be leaving on a boat...

FS 450 is 14/45 stock IIRC?

There really isn't a 'good' solution, if the ability to toggle the mode exists, it'll get abused, which is why they instead have the lockdown for a time window.

I'm hearing that it's a tight T30 in some circles?

For those that have gone via a dealer, how long until you heard from Stark? My dealer mentioned that I'd get emails from them as things progressed?

What gearing are you running, and what map setup if you don't mind sharing?

Just going by what the commentators noted, and you can see he didn't have as much motor as he was being chased down on the last lap of the B heat. He could have dropped modes to save battery?

Looks like Andy was having thermal issues on the last couple of laps of the B heat, so no way I'd get a full race at Loudon, bah.

This is one area Stark will HAVE to address, there needs to be a positive, confirmed, no questions, no ifs, ands or buts kill button that is obvious. If you look at rules for electric bikes in other formats they typically also mandate a positive battery disconnect that is obvious and accessible...

I've stuck throttles on ye olde carb'd bikes too. No fly by wire required. Fix was the same, clutch then kill switch?

I'm ok with subs when there is an actual value add going on. Netflix, I'm getting access to content I don't have. Internet access, again, obvious value there. Charging me a subscription to be allowed to twiddle knobs on my bike, there's no value add there, you're not bringing something to the...

For comparison, road racing Supermotos at NHMS (Loudon NH) we're seeing 105 to 110mph out of FS 450s by turn one, if not a little faster. My 2016 500 XC W could muster the same on our 1.6mi road course with 60hp. Same aero, similar weight to the Varg. The advantage my 500 has is a gearbox...

The Stark Phone is an android unit, does it have the Play Store? IE could you just install Lit Pro on it?

Wish those MCD clamps were 205mm apart, my 06 SMR setup would drop in. At 200mm my caliper will be eating spokes. Good to see the market is already spooling up though.

It all depends on the device, I’ve got multiple vehicles and a generator that sit on battery tenders 24/7/365 unless actively in use. My Jeep PHEV, plugged in 24/7/365 unless actively in use or under an annoying no charge no park near anything/indoors recall order… grumble, story for another...

A storage mode with the charger connected would be ideal... Let it float in the ideal storage range, topping off as needed.

Order in, now to pretend to be patient for 8 to 10 weeks.

Any reason to order online and let Stark pick a dealer vs picking one myself and doing the ordering through them?

I'm getting similar advice from my local crew so I think 18in will be the way I roll, thanks! No signs of a damper mount out there yet, will keep my two Scotts on standby. Looks like the brake mount is likely KTM pattern, and I don't have a sumo brake for that at the moment, I also see at...

For some reason I thought I had a spare set of dirt wheels still, 21 / 19 setup so I was going to go 18in on the Varg to round out the collection. Well... so my memory is faulty and no such spare set. 40C Nervous Novice at MX, I've got OK roll speed but just never learned to jump and now I...
