    I also have about 20-25 lbs of lump charcoal left. Depending on the size of the grill that's probably 4 meals worth.

    That sounds awesome, I can bring lots of beer and food. I have two very small radiators I use as heat exchangers for brewing. I doubt they'll get the job done though, they are for cooling PC's. I'll bring some fuel as well.

    Assuming we run the generator the entire time and split the gas between all 6, do you have an idea how much that is per person?

    Northeast Alta Rally

    The key to tracking Alta's in the wild is to look for the single tire track, telltale signs of a wheelie, and the extra deep ruts of hard wheel spin. It's well known that Alta's are more comfortable on one wheel and love to roost. But you're right, those buggers are quiet and are quite shy...

    Alta powered Honda Grom

    Sounds like the Electro's grom is going to be even more badass! Very cool guys, very cool.

    Alta Plastic Kit

    I wouldn't bother with the front number plate either. I've seen a bunch of different number plates used. Also, isn't the EXR headlight a stock mask?

    Map Selector Switch

    You didn't have to change out the connector? I find the plastic posts for the self-tapping screw to be too thin and weak. One of the posts cracked off on mine, so I just squeezed it between the switch assembly and mirror.

    Is this an issue?

    Glad to hear you're ok. How'd it happen? I thought this would be the first carbon/fiberglass rear bulkhead build.

    That jersey looks boss though! That gap between the skid plate and the bottom of the fender looks like it was gathering a ton of mud too. A little piece of something to keep the mud from getting packed in between the battery and the skid plate might help.

    Cove Campground and trails

    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...

    DIY Alta Kickstand

    If you look at the pic of that same kickstand on the DennisKirk website you can see that it has a flat mounting surface. So at the very least you can use a piece of aluminum plate to make a mount for it by thru-bolting the plate between the foot peg bracket and mount. This actually doesn't...

    DIY Alta Kickstand

    I tried to set it up closer to the original Alta configuration with the spring in the back. This required buying more small pieces and doing more mods than F451. His idea was my first idea. You still need the Alta bracket however. Here are some pics of what I did. I drilled and tapped the...

    DIY Alta Kickstand

    If you can find an alta kickstand bracket, you can use a KTM kickstand. However it required drilling and tapping the kickstand for a new spring post and some additional small parts. It also requires spacing the bracket off the mounting frame by at least 1/4". If you can find the Alta bracket...

    Sold Vin001

    Did you buy these yourself? Just wondering if you know how much they cost from the printer? Trying to determine if 3d printing the side number plates is an economically viable option.

    Sold Vin001

    Did you say the number plate is 3d printed?? If that is the case can you provide us with a 3d file, or post it on a site where we could order one?

    Rim Shattered

    Do you mean by using wider spacers you COULD align with the rotor right? So I might have to get the front hub from Warp 9, since this hub is unique to the Alta.

    Rim Shattered

    So if we wanted to go with a different wheel mfr, what would be compatible? edit: I guess the question is more about the hub. I'm sure I could lace many different wheels to the hub, but if I wanted a new, complete wheel, what would I look for.
