The imaginary tariffs imposed on the USA by hostile actors really captured the minds, even though they were debunked the next day, that's how disinformation works. The car industry is interesting , it's in fact one of the few examples where non tariff barriers are somewhat relevant (even though...

Still 10% tax for EU as for everyone bar Russia (and China, Canada and Mexico getting their own tariffs).

They're hyping this on their socials, such a tease 😆 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIMPgbjsHAa/?igsh=OGFnbmUybzlyaWEz

That was 18 months ago though, since then they've run the FIM e-xplorer little championship and that's it. Still no specs, still no release date for a production version, nothing.

And unfortunately this self inflicted wound, huge, on a scale never been before, is also propagating on the world stage since our economies are so intertwined.

I was thinking about this as well. I guess playing with engine braking maps before going through a certain section is not as intuitive as modulating the clutch. Maybe they could have some kind of practical feature to temporarily disengage engine braking, just like the Desmo450 can apparently...

These so-called "discounted reciprocal tariffs" aren't either discounted nor reciprocal. In fact the left column, "tariffs imposed on USA..." has nothing to do with tariffs imposed on the US nor countries taking advantage of the US, it's a simple formula based on 2024 trade balance...

Incredible attention to detail!

Anything EU, including Vargs, will get 20% tariff starting April 9th. Good night and good luck.

I feel for you, I really do. Ofc it doesn't mean you all agree with him but sadly the majority of your fellow citizens voted for him, they chose him to represent them, so when he speaks now, he speaks for your country. We're really derailing the topic, good thing is no one cares about...

There's really no need to answer claims than Canada, Mexico or EU would have somewhat been able to coerce or abuse the greatest economic and military power in the world to sign trade agreements unfavorable to it. There is nothing rational behind this. What should concern American citizens is...

Funny, 126 Wh/km gives you 57 km range with 7.2 kWh. Next line electric range is 117 km. No doubt it's all administrative and different ways to calculate this, still first estimate seems closer to typical use.

Agreed, I don't see any motorcycle manufacturer going with anything other than commercial cells. They have neither knowledge nor means. Their innovation comes from the rest, the pack, module integration, electronics but not the core cells who are the main component dictating range. The other...

They could be using the 7.2 kWh battery with factory software without limping mode, I don't expect anything much fancier than that. Curious to see if they can run 30 min at all tracks this year, so far 2 on 2.

Blue are the turning lights, I would assume red is the rear light, watch from 17 min

France Elite MX, round 2 In MX1 Irsuti signed the first top 10 for Stark with 10th overall (10/12), things went sideways for Herbreteau in race 1 but he had similar pace to his teammate in race 2 for 15th overall (24/11). In MX2 Wade showed some potential, DNF race 1 but 9th in race 2 got him...

Dealers in Europe are getting their EX bikes, here's one in France https://www.instagram.com/reel/DHx1xvRoNh2/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Varg EX parts are available online, horn is $43, headlight $175, Arkenstone phone $299, wiring harness $399, map switch $89, 7.2 kWh battery $3990

Not that it would be of great help to you but for information in France AMV quotes under 300 €/year for fully comprehensive insurance for Varg EX.

Seeing mostly German guys with Varg EX makes me wonder but I think road homologation in one EU country automatically makes it road legal across the entire EU?

Round 1 was the first time a Varg competed in France Elite championship. Now at round 2 there will be 4 Vargs: Herbreteau and Irsuti in MX1 Wade and Jayal in MX2
