    Fastway Evolution III Footpegs

    I am 6'-3" however I installed the pegs in the normal/high position. In the southeast U.S. some of the trails can develop deep ruts by the end of a rainy Spring season and it's not unusual to have an obvious channel on the side of the rut where everyone's pegs are dragging. I haven't...

    Fastway Evolution III Footpegs

    I have the Evolution 4 footpegs on my EXR. I used the Fit Kit for the 2015 Yamaha YZ250F and everything installed without any problems. I assume the Evolution 3 footpegs would mount the same way.

    Help finding an Alta

    You might just try to reply through the CraigsList ad. There is a REPLY icon up in the top left corner. That will give you an email address at CL. CL will forward your email to the lister at the address they had to include when they listed the bike. Worth a try. I think I have seen...

    How-To : Install and Use Alta Multitool Software

    Thanks. That helps define a lower limit of what is needed. I should be able to get something relatively inexpensive that will exceed that minimum.

    How-To : Install and Use Alta Multitool Software

    Does anyone have the hardware requirements for a Windows machine to run the MT? I am thinking about buying a minimal laptop for dedicated use in the workshop for the ALTA MT and the diagnostic software for one of my cars. It would be nice to remove the clutter of the Oracle VM and...

    Theoretical top speed

    Interesting. Let's see ..... I have a stock ALTA "R" (two in fact). I have relatively smooth DOT tires that fit the stock wheels. I have sprockets and spare wheels to change the gear ratios. I have a roadracing fairing, clip ons, and 17" wheels & tires that will fit an ALTA. However, two...

    EXR #202 stolen in Utah

    That number is much, much smaller if you consider only EXRs. Hopefully whoever stole the trailer doesn't know what they have with the ALTA. It might make them less careful if they attempt to sell the bike or any parts and provide a path to find the thieves and all the gear.

    Withdrawn 2019 EXR

    I looked for a second EXR for a number of months and ended up buying a '19 MXR. It saved me a lot of money on purchase price, initial and annual registration, plus the ongoing Alternate Fuel Vehicle Tax of about $250/year. I use the MXR for offroad riding and the EXR for dual-sport riding...

    2019 MXR buying on Monday

    Welcome to the forum and the somewhat exclusive club of Redshift owners. I agree with the above posts about suspension. Not surprisingly, your results will depend on the type of riding you do. If you are a very fast enduro, hare scramble, or MX rider then you will benefit from slightly...

    Bleeder Valve

    Here is a link for the STR bleeders. You can scroll down on the page and they actually list ALTA 4CS forks. They ship worldwide. Slavens Racing: Part #ST10-22 fits: 4 mm

    24 Hours of Starvation Ridge in WA -- October 26 & 27, 2019 (new dates)

    Congratulations, and great job everyone ! Thanks for sharing the adventure. Sounds like everyone had a great time. Watching those videos was very strange for me. My only offroad night racing experience is in the Southeast U.S. where everything is tight, singletrack trails in the...

    Bleeder Valve

    Definitely agree with this recommendation. They don't leak air in or out unless you are pressing the cap. Possibly more expensive, but definitely more reliable and longer lasting than other designs. I have them on my EXR (4mm XPLOR = STR 10-21) and MXR (4mm/8mm AER = STR 10-25).

    Lightfighter Electric Race Bike

    Cool bike. Sure wish I had known this was at the Barber Vintage Festival. I watched most of the racing, yet didn't see (or at least notice) an electric bike. Admittedly it is very difficult to figure out the classes and bikes at the big AHRMA races because they can have up to five...

    Gauging Interest East Coast All Electric MX Race

    It would be a loooong drive for me, but I am keeping an eye on this thread in case I can make the trip for a rally. I don't have any business riding on a MX track unless you simply need paying riders to fill out the field and slow moving obstacles to pass. :muutt:

    Screw for rear brake lever

    That seems strange to me. When working on both of my ALTAs, I have found that every single bolt that I have removed was installed at the factory with a locking compound. No hardware has ever loosened on its own and some of the bolts are quite difficult to remove. Had someone previously...

    MXR 2019 won't turn on

    Yikes! I think your new bike saw this picture and quickly decided it was much safer to pretend to be asleep. Seriously though, good luck getting this straightened out. I am sure we hear about almost every single ALTA problem on this forum so the issues are less frequent than they seem...

    Alta Cross Country Race Pacer Vehicle

    That is a cool application for the ALTA. I've run lead/escort for a few bicycle time trials and road races including an elite pro race on my ICE road bike. I tried to stay far enough ahead that the fumes wouldn't be an issue but an e-bike would be a great alternative since you could reduce...

    Honda EU2200 issue..

    Exact same experience for me with the EU2000. The only other comment is that I turn off the ECO mode so that the generator is constantly running at high RPM. The bike would stop the charging process with the ECO mode engaged on the EU2000. It seems that the generator does not respond...
