    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    The prepay method has many advantages for them. It tells them how many components to order, takes the financial pressure off, looks good to investors. Helps determine if they need to expand the production capabilities, etc, etc

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    That's true, because by the time I actually got my bike, production was about in full swing and the dealers were already receiving bikes. But I did get the earlier pricing, which was $1000 less, but then in the fall of last year, they dropped the price by at least $2k :mad: Part of the story is...

    Hopefully the IMU update is related to forthcoming flywheel and/or throttle curve adjustments.

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    Those of us that have have a Varg with a VIN around 5000 and under will be very sympathetic. I started to document all the promised dates that slipped by many months and all the other drama/growing pains we endured, but I don't like to make epically long posts. In the end, I got my bike about...

    Throttle and traction control on the Stark

    Not necessary, the throttle rolls on very smoothly! Most of us want more throttle response at lower horsepower.

    Gear oil plug...!

    the size that fits :cool: Honestly, unless you drill it through first, an ez out is probably not going to work since it looks like they torqued the :poop: out of it. I would use a hammer and punch, or cut a slot with a cut off wheel. That other thread has methods from folks who have successfully...

    Stark charger modifications

    I think you can disconnect those connectors, although I have never done it, and there is that other wire attached with a screw. Separating the cables would help with the bulkiness, but it still wouldn't be fun to carry...

    That thread is a bit long, but there are photos and advice from folks who had to use a chisel or other extraction methods.

    Gear oil plug...!

    I would send that photo to Stark, they should send you the new redesigned plug with an external hex. See this thread: https://electricdirtriders.com/threads/varg-gear-oil-change.3391/ OH, and welcome, this forum is the best place I have found for Stark Varg info.

    New software update firmware 1.0.185 (416) 2/8/2025

    Make sure bluetooth and wifi are turned on in the phone. You have to have a google account for the play store. Have you tried to go to google play store, look for the Varg app, and update? If this doesn't help, delete the Varg app, reboot the phone, and re-install the Varg app from google play.

    "Action Needed: Secure Your VARG EX Delivery Date"

    If the EX launch is anything like the MX launch was, the YouTube influencers will be the first to receive their bikes, and will begin immediately churning out their "unboxing" and "first ride" videos for the folks waiting and considering ordering.

    ktm exc rear wheel fit stark varg?

    The bearing IDs and ODs are the same. KTM has several different spacers. At least some of the spacers fit inside the bearing as well as against the face of the bearing. The axle then fits inside the spacer. On Stark (and ~maybe~ late model KTM) the spacer has the same ID as the bearing and...

    Varg charging from generator.

    If you see a twist-lock AC receptacle on a generator that has 4 prongs it should be 240V. There are 120V twist-lock AC receptacles but they only have 3 prongs. Here is the cheapest Harbor Freight generator (that I could find on their website) with 240V: EDIT...

    Thread Dedicated to Keeping Track of Firmware Versions

    Unfortunately Stark doesn't give us any release notes on updates unless they are adding range or some other new feature, in which case they release a video describing the changes. All along they have been promising to start providing release notes, but, believe it or not, they haven't yet...
