    Alta - Stark rant

    I hope the Starks are awesome but the Altas are tried and true with a great knowledge base here and they are a better bike than I am a rider so I am sticking with alta , at least until one of the big 4 gets it right. still keep the Altas though.

    Tempted to sell, kickstand woes

    better late than never sooo...I have an alta mx and a surron. the surron has about $10k into it with brakes, suspension, adult sizing, tires and battery and controller upgrades and compared to the alta IT SUCKS!!. if you are 5'4" or less and weigh about 120lbs you could ride the surron seriously...

    Which US companies sell basic liability insurance for the Alta?

    MY SM WAS INSURED THROUGH PROGRESSIVE BECAUSE STATE FARM COULDN'T FIND THE VIN BUT LATER CHANGED THEIR MIND AND INSURED ME, ALSO CHECK OUT DIRTLEGAL.COM THEY CAN GET YOU TITLED, REGISTERED AND PLATED IN ANOTHER STATE AND THEN JUST SWITCH EVERYTHING OVER TO YOUR STATE OR LEAVE IT

    ALTA SM NOT CHARGING,NO ERROR CODE, JUST SAYS"AC GROUND NOT DETECTED"

    my other option was to have the charging done off board via alta charger, luckily they found me a onboard charger, good luck, this forum seems to be all about the stark Varg and people selling their Altas to get a Varg. someone helpful will find you.

    General Do you miss using a clutch?

    OK...here's my take on it. a manual clutch would be simple to add from a design viewpoint, just put it in a jackshaft. how about left foot actuated clutch? it's got nothing to do anyway. as far as needing a clutch, the first time I dirt rode my alta I dug a hole and got stuck on the first steep...

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    I am not going for the Varg. my Alta mx is a better bike than I am a rider, but I did just purchase a 2022 zero SR, cool bike...no upgrades yet still getting familiar with it.

    First impressions, upgrades, and review of my new 2018 Alta MXR. This bike is AMAZING!

    I used to ride the pine barrens often..forked river, lacey road, stubbola and Clayton pits ,erial and the old action mountain park and manahawkin(bought by Sahara sand and closed down). seems that everyplace I rode is now off limits except Wharton if they're sponsoring an enduro. ended up...

    the bike ergonomics kinda worry me...

    F451 beat me to it. it looks like he just landed and is accelerating.plus of all the things about this bike I think the ergo's would be the simplest thing to change ie. different bars and it probably has adjustable footpegs and if not shouldn't be a difficult mod.

    Yamaha TY-E Trials

    why? why? why do you tease me like this? I just sold my gasgas txt300pro trials and thought I might be done with hitting the ground that hard ( not even a unicycle will throw you quicker than a trials bike)

    I am customer #1

    congrats. I hope it's all you wish for and I couldn't think of a better person for it to go to. years of experience with Alta and fast as hell. looking forward to your evaluations(but I won't take them too seriously until the new bike owner luster wears off.....soooo lets say second lap?)

    MX, EX, SM I’ve had them all…

    does the ex have an onboard charger or do you have an external charger? just wondering 'cause it's street legal.

    MX, EX, SM I’ve had them all…

    the true joy of the sm is not having to have a charger. ride to work or a friends, plug it in to the wall, ride it home when you're ready to go.

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    I believe that it could possibly be what you believe you have read or maybe not, however what you believe may only be what you are led to believe and not at all what you have actually surmised. furthermore the thing that worries you the most may be of no consequence at all or it could be the...

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    someday batteries will be like propane tanks for bbq grills...drop off the old, ride off with a new. I can swap a surrons battery in less than a minute. it will happen, there just aren't enough bikes to standardize batteries...YET!!
