    electronic clutch

    Honestly I would be very cautious with this, thoug: 1-are you sure that it's reliable and that it won't behave incorrectly causing an unexpected power delivery? I doubt it has been developed with Stark and approved by them. 2-it would void the warranty

    Assembly quality?

    On my Varg some bolts including those ones tend to become loose, too; not more than with an ICE bike but I hoped it wouldn't happen at all thanks to less vibrations. According to tests I've read about, adding grease to a thread will significantly increase the clamping force. Having the correct...

    Strix Evolution

    Yes, I've read this test report [edit: i.e. the one already linked by Beagle] and watched this video: and they say that those specs are for a 20-80% recharge. Besides, usually charging the last percentage, like from 90 to 100, needs to be done at a slower rate because it's harder to keep the...

    Strix Evolution

    CCS is awesome news, but if you use a European 3.5 kw wall socket you need, in theory, 105 minutes to recharge 6.3 kw. I've also noticed that they use a linkageless system for the rear shock, with the progression apparently obtained because of the tilt of the shock and supposedly progressive...

    3D printing titanium components at Stark Future

    This actually looks like extruded or something and then welded and not 3D printed, but wow! I'm curious to know how much it weighs. I've just found some prices on this site: for powder of the common Ti-6Al-4V alloy, I don't know which quality, they say high, the price per kg is not crazy...

    3D printing titanium components at Stark Future

    Stark Future has bought a Farsoon FS721M-H-8-CAMS 3D printer: Stark Future and Farsoon Technologies Announce Strategic Partnership to Advance Series Production of Premium Electric Motorcycle Components. They are currently using it to print the titanium footpegs and want to use it for a lot more...

    Tesla Model 3 tested as a rally car in snow

    The Mountain Pass kit he mentions should be this one. I've never done rally in real life but I know something about how to do it thanks mainly to the YouTube channel which posted this video and the awesome Richard Burns Rally driving simulator, in which Burns himself gives lessons and there are...

    Assembly quality?

    The way in which the brake lines are arranged can cause this issue.

    Favorite mx regen

    First of all I have a hunch that the power setting also affects the regen braking, meaning that a certain regen percentage is actually stronger at higher HP settings than at lower ones. I usually ride my bike at roughly 50 HP and the regen is set to 40%. The main reason is that I feel that with...

    Varg production numbers / VIN

    Here @15:38 there is some updated information about how long it takes them to build a bike and about the frequency of completions of new bikes: Building a Varg takes roughly 1 hour. The speed of their production line is: a new bike every 10 minutes. I guess that the production starts when the...

    Owner's Review I Finally got my Stark…Pros and Cons

    Actually in theory the way it works should be the opposite: post in a different thread So maybe the reason for which the front wheel slams into the next whoop is that the rear slams too hard and so you end up like on a teeter totter. Personally I can't skim whoops while wheeling with a gas bike...

    electric motorcycles for military purposes

    2 wheels drive: one motor in each wheel hub. I bet it helps a ton when the rider gets stuck in low traction situations.

    electric motorcycles for military purposes

    I've watched some videos in which soldiers use electric motorcycles; here is one I've liked more than others. In that video, they mention a "reduced signature", which is something that I understand because of hours spent playing Digital Combat Simulator (who knows, maybe some of you will Google...

    Mudflap rubbed swinging arm.

    There are two spacers on the left and two on the right and actually you should push the component sandwitched between them like shown in that video to get them out. They can't stick to the swingarm shaft when you slide it out. Here is a representation of how they are assembled:

    Mudflap rubbed swinging arm.

    After 51 hours of almost only motocross except from some enduro turn track, I think that my swingarm doesn't have that issue, even though there is a spot in the center which is different from the surrounding area because of the casting molds I guess and I'm note sure whether it's worn. I've...

    Motocrossity in a shopping center in Madrid

    Here is a video with an onboard on a Talaria: So it's a small track with a hard ground in which I guess ruts will never exist, so apparently that's why they use those tyres which look more for flat track than motocross. It looks more suitable for the occasional rider and not for the advanced...

    Post here your Stark Varg issues (or not!)

    According to the Control switch LED statuses guide that you can find here: Stark Future if it's flashing yellow fast it can mean that there is an update available and if you haven't turned it on for 11 days or more probably it needs to be updated because a couple of weeks ago, I think, mine...

    Chain slack

    After my first trackday I measured the slack and it was as per the manual, roughly 30 mm above the chain slider top bolt. EDIT: I meant that after my first trackday the chain, with the rear end lifted on the center stand, could be pushed upwards until it left a space of 30 mm between itself and...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    Maybe I'm more used to the maintenance schedule for motocross, but the cost estimate for your 2 stroke looks too optimistic to me. If you do 50 h per year, can you just replace pistons for 400 h in eight years? I bought a 2001 YZ250 in 2016, so it was 15 years old. I don't know whehter the...
