Vinsanity and I are talking about swapping our front suspension. Are there any considerations we need to worry about? Are the wheel spacers the same or should we swap those as well? I assume the triple trees are the same.

Anyone know the correct bleeder valve thread size for the 19' MXR forks? I thought these forks were the same as the 15 KTM 250 XC, but the threads are much smaller. Rocky mountain atv wants me to select my bike for selecting the correct bleeder valve, but they don't have alta's in their...

I'm considering buying a salvaged Tesla battery to charge my Alta through an inverter. Assuming I get an inverter that can handle the 13-14A draw of the standard charger, does anyone see a reason that this can't be done? The tesla battery packs I see are 24VDC, so I would need a step down...

A new motor design claims 2-5x torque at similarly scaled conventional motors, which means we could shave maybe 2x the weight off the motor. Of course I don't know how much the motor itself weighs so maybe that isn't a huge improvement. However they claim their motor is 10% more efficient...

Not necessarily an Alta alternative, but a very good looking competitor to HD's Livewire. And I hope it wins. Curtiss Psyche

Not sure if anyone on here needs it, but there is an EXR R-type battery pack for sale on ebay. $2400. Alta Battery for sale

Took the Alta for a spin on the trails at the Cove Campground in Gore, VA. This was not the first time I had been on these trails, but it was my first time with the Alta. I was able to tackle some trails I had bailed on with my ice bike. This place is very, very rocky. I did a steep section...

The last piece to getting my bike ready for this race is getting tubliss installed in my rear tire. I completely get why you'd want to run really low pressure in the rear tire to get traction and at the same time prevent pinch flats. But I can't quite wrap my head around running the front...

We may not be the fastest team at this race, but we will be the best looking. Here are the pics with the reflective numbers and AOF decal. Not too bad as far as the brightness of the Oracal material. There is a little washout in the picture, but that could be the camera on my 5 year old Galaxy...

In about 1 or 2 years there's going to be a thread on here to post pics of your Mad Max looking Alta as we all start to break pieces of plastics here and there. Just for some info, here is an article with some recipes for ABS "Glue". How well it works holding our fenders together remains to be...

This zip file contains a number of logos and a Word doc help file for the CanvasMX designer app.

I'm looking to try some different off-road parks in the northeast area and seeing what interest there is in turning it into a group rally. Some of the places I've been meaning to check out are Rock Run, Reading Outdoors, or Anthracite Outdoor Adventures (all central PA). I'm open to idea's if...

Looking for a kickstand assembly for 18 MXR.

So I bought these hand screws to replace the seat screw and was wondering if anyone wants one. I have 4 extras. I'd charge $1 + shipping. A quick look shows that if you live in CA, it might be cheaper to buy the whole set of 5 from amazon, but if you're on the east coast total cost could be...

Is it possible to maintain the Alta parts list spreadsheet on the forum? This way when new sources/parts are identified we can have one location to look for it. It would also be helpful to have those exploded views to identify parts.

Harley-Davidson LiveWire is a lustworthy sporty electric motorcycle - Roadshow Not a fan. And not because of what happened with Alta, even though that doesn't help. That bike looks too weird. And I just saw this in article "Now, thanks to investments in Alta Motors and the availability of...

With everything going on I figured we needed some lighthearted posts. I was just looking at some hitch mounted bike haulers and remembered one style and then I thought, you could haul it AND charge it at the same time... So how many miles would it take to charge it?

Just wondering how many of you would definitely sell your Redshifts if Alta announces it is going out of business or files chapter 7/11.

I'm wondering if I should keep my KLX250 or trade it in to lower the cost of the new alta. How many of you kept an ICE bike when you bought your alta and do you ride them much anymore? If cost wasn't a concern than this question doesn't really apply. I don't race so having a separate race...

So I'm not an Alta owner yet, but I plan to be very soon. Test rode one at a dealership in Tyrone PA and just waiting for it to come off demo status. Anyway, my question is if the bike can be charged using charging stations setup for the chevy volt, tesla's and other EV's. I live about 35...
