If you install the KTM triple clamps (+ KTM axle + KTM front wheel) you would have a variety of Scotts stabilizer mount options, but you would still need to figure the post mount setup. I can't remember if anyone here has figured out the post mount setup yet. One of these days I'm going to...

Stella!!!

That doesn't sound like it would be too hard to do, use some heavy duty 2 part epoxy. And I thought I read somewhere here that someone used a KTM subframe and seat and that front of the KTM seat mounts matched up with the Alta mounts. Does anyone else recall that or am I imagining it?

Stupid Alta test ride...I knew better, Lol. 10 minute ride and I'm ruined. First world problems for sure, its all good, etc, etc, etc (I keep telling myself).

This is really a conundrum for me (how often do you get to use that word, Lol). My Alta doesn't have the range for the types of rides I like to do, and ICE bikes aren't enjoyable now for the types of rides I like to do. I waited a long time before buying the Husky and was really fired up to get...

North Fork Rd always delivers on the scenery. The end of the road, at the top of the jeep trail spur. Nice place for a quiet break before the mosquitoes start in on ya. Back side of Mt. Si. Mt Si, aka Twin Peaks. Across the street, the horses were enjoying the evening too. Back...

Recently bought a really nice '16 Husqvarna FE 350 and after putting on my usual tall guy stuff (tall seat, bar risers, low pegs) I took it out for a 70 or so mile dual sport ride last night. It was a beautiful summer evening here in the PacNW, perfect for cruising along the forest roads. Rode...

NOAA just revised their map, it’s coming for you Red.

Was going to post this same info. I would go with whatever the locals are running. Slaven's advice is fantastic, knows his stuff, tells it like it is. His videos are a great resource for all kinds of moto info: YouTube I'm currently running the Shinko 216 Fatty up front and the Shinko 525 in...

I've always thought the Alta would make an awesome flat track machine, the massive torque at all times combined with the very precise throttle control, sounds like a super fun setup.

Congrats on the purchase and welcome to a whole new way of enjoying dirt bikes. And the enchanted mitten, Lol, never heard that before.

What I’d really like is an updated Astro/Safari AWD sized van. I just need it big enough for a dirt bike and some supplies. Room for a cot inside after unloading the bike. I’d be in heaven. They have a bunch over in Europe.

Same, Lol. I've been trying to convince myself that I can be happy with a Transit passenger (low roof, normal length) van as my daily driver instead of my current F150, but I'm not sure I'd be happy with a van as a daily driver. This onboard generator setup sounds sweet though so I may have to...

Not a single issue so far. Loving the low maintenance too.

If you remove the top of the rapid charger cover you will see that there is a lot of extra room in the case, primarily for the cables I guess. If you're mounting it in your trailer, you could take it out of the case and save a lot of room and store the cables separately.

I've noticed my Alta doesn't get any lighter as I use up the electrons during my rides. My ICE bikes always get lighter as I burn up the gas. What am I doing wrong? Lol

Some of today's youngsters could very well be the first generation to only ride e-dirt bikes and never even bother with ICE dirt bikes. The technology will continue to improve as they age, by the time they are ready for adult sized bikes the bikes may very well have improved to the point where...

If it hasn't already been mentioned, KTM triples work nicely, bolt right into the Alta headstock. Requires the matching KTM axle and front wheel. Changes the offset 1 degree if I recall correctly.

Metz, congrats on the bike and nice video, that looks like some prime riding. I'm in Snoqualmie but ride from time to time up at my club property in Monroe (south side of Hwy 2). Let me know if you want to get out there for a spin on the Altas. Its a small area but has some fun single track...

I'd like to put a Tesla drive train in a 914 and zap around. Or an old Alfa. Or a Beck replica. Or a 356 replica. Any vintagy sports car with an electric setup actually, Lol. In a way that does not permanently alter the car, so it could be re-configured back to an ICE setup.
