I always try to use loctite on everything. I'm very curious to see if the lack of engine vibration on the Stark results in bolts loosening much less than ICE bikes. It's my theory, but only time will tell. We seemed to have many more problems with bolts/nuts loosening on our KTM 2 strokes vs...

I would think he makes it no problem unless they are going 60+ MPH. I did 38 miles with some nasty climbs and had 19% battery left. And that was prior to 14% and 10% range increase. Be interested to hear his report.

I tried to read that thread but I can't understand where/what you were saying about me...

To be honest, before I spoke with Mike Burkeen, I thought that he was a FUDster who just hated electric bikes and was making any excuse to ban them. I spoke with him for almost an hour, and I'm 99% sure that's not the case at all. I feel he has some legimate concerns regarding the noise/safety...

LONG POST!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!! THIS IS ALSO POSTED ON VITAL, BUT I THOUGHT A FEW PEOPLE MIGHT NOT READ VITAL Caveats: I was speaking with Mike Burkeen who works for the AMA. I’m sure his thoughts and opinions don’t necessarily reflect the AMA’s corporate stance. I am relaying the...

I should have written an update a while ago. After riding more with the LHRB, I discovered the major cause of my rear brake fading was .... ME. I think the rear brake was so easy to use when on the handlebars, I started using the rear brake too much. As soon as I rode with a more correct...

Another CyberTruck owner here. I would agree that any hybrid/electric pickup with a 220v outlet outputing at least 15amps is best. The CyberTruck will output 50amps, which is enough to fast charge three Starks at once. Some of the trims of the Lighting only output 110v, which is fine for...

I had my suspension re-valved by RG3 in Boise. It is night and day better than stock suspension. The stock suspension has an extremely stiff shock and an overly soft fork. The worst part of the fork behavior is diving under front brake use. I've only got one ride on the new stuff, but I'll...

My Stark is finally amoung family in the garage!!

I don't feel that racing 450s in 48hp mode is much of a disadvantage, unless you are racing at the highest level. I typically race my Stark in either 42HP or 44HP modes. I was pulling 450s up the Mesquite hill with that little horsepower. And very similar abilities to mine. I think the Stark...

Nice looking bike!!

The shock is extremely stiff. I've got the low speed comp all the way out and preload spring adjusted all the way loose, only generating 98mm sag. It was ordered for 185 rider and I'm only 155, so it's a little understandable. I've got it at suspension shop right now.

I switched to LitPro, however, three years I ago I used RaceChrono on my Adroid phone. It does lap times, but does not do fitness. I would recommend buying a used Garmin watch and just paying the 2.99 per month for LitPro. Garmin is the best, IMHO, for fitness tracking.

I heard some arcing coming from the charger so I took it apart. The white lead had some brown burn marks and all leads didn’t have enough copper exposed and one lead had a Phillips screw that wasn’t close to tight. Everyone should check their charger cables for sure. I had a non-working...

All great advice. I have already replaced the brake fluid with VP Racing brake fluid and they are bled perfectly as I have a syringe type system to push the fluid up from the bottom. I will contact Stark, but I don't feel there is anything broken on the bike. The rear brake works just fine...

They are stainless. It really seems like the Formula master cyclinder isn't very good. The Stark CEO mentioned it in an interview. I don't think it really needs an oversize rotor, I'm just trying to do anything to make it better.

I really love my Stark and the hand rear brake setup. However, I'm getting major brake fade after 10ish minutes of medium intensity riding. I'm going to order the BRAKING OVERSIZE REAR BRAKE ROTOR KIT for 19-22 generation KTM. I'm also going to contact Stark, as the CEO was saying they will...
