Things like that happen very-very rarely. This year we are extremely lucky to have three established motorcycle manufacturers who decided to venture into the motocross market: Beta, Triumph, and Ducati. I do not remember this happening before in my lifetime. Motocross is prospering! New...

It is interesting how he completes the corner while standing up but then sits down for ~0.8 seconds in order to accelerate. Then he lets the bike kick him up to stand up again. He wheelies through almost half of the straight! He pumps his legs while wheelying in order to maintain the wheelie...

That's what @DonCox does. I am thinking, without more sophisticated electronics than a simple BMS, it is safer to let the battery drain low and feel the gradual reduction of power rather than let the BMS kill your bike completely (or partially in case of multiple BMS/batteries). A typical BMS...

Here they are: Mission 1000 Highlights - Stage 1 - #Dakar2024

I have one of these, waiting to be installed when there is a need for it. On the Alta, the tire-fender clearance has been an issue with most rear tires. I run my rear wheel closer to the back end of the swing arm slot. Let me know how it works on the Varg!

You could probably buy/rent one of those Boston Dynamics dogs and test what their off-road riding range is compared to the Alta/Stark. But for ultimate efficiency, nothing would beat a horse or a mule. Just feed them grass and water. Renewable flex fuel.

The throttle and other part numbers are stickied here: https://electricdirtriders.com/threads/list-of-aftermarket-products-for-the-alta.334/ I also just copied this throttle info into the Alta Part Numbers thread...

Yay!!! This is exactly what the AMA/FIM/KTM have been afraid of, LOL! https://electricdirtriders.com/threads/history-being-made-with-jackbrunell155-taking-the-first-arenacross-victory-in-round-2-of-arenacrossuk-taking-the-championship-lead.3415/

You'd need a bigger ~4,000W generator because the Varg likes 220V at 16A. Then it would work.

Here is a cautious and politically correct YouTube response from Stark Future:

Great price too :ROFLMAO: I bet everyone in Illinois is now itching to go riding in the middle of winter.

Please don't start a fight. Many of us raced in AMA races in the past. There were no rules against electric bikes until the 2024 AMA Rules came out.

A year ago, I was heavily into a perfect coach battery engineering. I used a Shenzhen-Basen 4s4p setup (12V) with a 4,000W AIM inverter/charger. It worked well, but I chose a bad location for the battery bank (under the van), which kept damaging battery cells that were closest to the exhaust...

Corruption is alleged at the 1:44 minute mark.

Someone should expose this hyper-hypocrisy. What a scam. What a shame.

I have been thinking about this topic. Everyone seems to be accepting it as given that the AMA (American Motorcyclists Association) represents their own financial interests first, the interests of motorcycle manufacturers second, and the interests of motorcycle riders maybe third or lower. This...

Merry Christmas!

Coming up short or long on a new jump is a routine occurrence in motocross. Bikes that are made for jumping do not crack in half each time you go to a new track.
