    BAD NEWS

    That is a steal, a new MXR for 8900 including charger. Yah, buy that quick. Is your dealer located anywhere near Reno NV? I may buy that for that price if I don't have to deal with shipping issues.

    Code 36 service required???

    My guess is, the "R" pack has different 18650 cells with a higher discharge C rating. If this is the case, it would make me wonder if the standard MX rated for 42HP is using the same electronics as the MXR which is rated for 50HP. My thinking is the MXR/EXR has a higher out put over the MX/EX...

    Our own Alta software/firmware team -- Join in

    Absolutely correct, its the opposite direction every one is going towards and we would loose some power and efficiency. I would like to clarify this is something I would look at doing just for my own reasons, if the event worst case scenario plays out, and I had some kind of failure I couldn't...

    Our own Alta software/firmware team -- Join in

    Should the worst happen, and Alta is no more, I would be in, and nominate Mark to be the guy to figure our machines out for us. One of the things I would look at is a lower voltage higher amp set up. At over 400 volts hot off the charger, one needs to be super savy with electrician related...

    Could be a good sign, or a bad sign. Good sign is operations will be resuming. Bad sign, liquidating assets. As a dealer, are you able to comment?

    BAD NEWS

    I get what you are saying. And yah, potential customers are thinking they dodged a bullet with an Alta purchase. All I am saying is the bikes are great though, even if production and support are up in the air.

    BAD NEWS

    Alta did release a message that production was shut down. These are good machines and nobody should be hesitant not to buy one, even right now. This issue is they may not be able to be maintained in working condition without some serious enthusiast assistance in 5 years down the road. The...

    I rode a Redline and then a Haro Master, my buddy had a PK Ripper. I even had a paper route job from 81-83. This movie could have been about my life, except the Hell Track part. Ironically the qualification races in the movie for Hell Track, that was mother of races for what we now know as...

    Here are a couple of more pics from today's ride. Was a great day with perfect temps. I did re gear my bike with a 12T 52T sprockets. I figured I gained about 6%. With the 13T 53T gearing @ 60MPH indicated, my actual speed was 57MPH. With the 12T 52T, @60MPH indicated, my actual speed is...

    How Far Have You Gone?

    Yah we will do that, and then grab lunch at Highland Hollow off of Bogus Basin Road north of Hill road. BTW, how are you liking the SHinko SR244? Also, are you running the 4.60x18 or the 5.10x18? According to my math, the 4.60 is closest to the stock tires size as far as width goes.

    BAD NEWS

    I was going to say the same thing, its only been 10 days. If memory serves me correctly, I think Alta has had different owners a couple of times now. I believe Alta will have another owner, if it doesn't have already.

    How Far Have You Gone?

    I am good for 40 miles in the hills trail riding. I base this on multiple rides I have had where I went around 20 miles and had used right around 50% of my battery. BTW, I get up to Boise about 4 times a year, I am thinking next year, I need to bring the EXR with me for a ride.
