I still can't believe they haven't done an onboard charger for the Varg EX. Probably to save weight or limit cost but that remains a very odd choice to me. There are gonna be a lot of riders disappointed to learn they can only charge their street-legal bike with their stand. So basically you...

I think I would go with plastic covers instead of carbon fiber to absorb shocks better but no real world experience, sorry.

Motor covers, battery covers and others are available online. Here are some examples (some of these suppliers have many more Varg protections available, check their sites) https://www.axp-racing.com/en/product/xtrem-skid-plate-stark-future-varg-2023-2024-black-ax1728...

Thanks, what's your VIN and what part did you replace?

Great idea, anybody knows the cutoff in VIN between gen1 and gen2? If not, I guess we could get this info if people specify gen along with VIN. Charging port Gen2 (picture posted by AL_V) Is gen2 just about the inverter or other changes as well?

Thanks for playing

Well it's also been mentioned in the Varg EX launch video so could mean it's finally ready for release or just more waiting, we should know more around the time of first deliveries in a couple of months. If they do it there will obviously be a video about it. About the paywall, they must have...

There are known issues with the bike, usually well taken care of under the 2 years warranty, like powertain, VCU or battery failures for instance (without mentioning tire tubes!). We may not be representative of all Stark owners but since there are a few on the forum, I'd like to give this a go...

First presented to the public in 2017, not one specification has ever been communicated (hopefully it has changed a bit since 2017!), not any date of public release nor confirmation it would be the base for a production bike. Still think Honda will race 2026 MXEP though that doesn't mean a...

These are all very reasonable considerations, and thanks for Stark answers. One thing to keep in mind is the significance of each factor, their real world impact on battery performance and cycle life will vary from one battery cell to another. Everything in there is true, but how much battery...

IMHO you should stop crying wolf, while entirely appropriate for a "varg" it's also plainly counterproductive. 1. No one knows if parts failures after 2 years will be a thing 2. No one knows how Stark would handle such supposed failures outside of warranty Are EV batteries likely to fail after...

P50B does have higher cycle life than P45B, there is no downside to it, except probably cost https://www.molicel.com/inr-21700-p50b

Thanks Theo and Al_V, good explanations (just Al you mistyped, 60 kW = 80 hp).

Good points but have you seen anyone damaging the battery from a fall? I've seen cracked cases but nothing on the battery.

This is how it's supposed to work Without access to the previous owner or the phone, you need Stark to help you. They will definitely need you to show solid proof of ownership and the VIN then I'm pretty confident they can program the phone that you will order to link to your Varg.

No phone... did anyone declare transfer of ownership to Stark? I guess you're probably gonna need that phone, or order one from them, a charger could come handy as well 😆

No, it's all perfectly legal, no shenanigans coming from Stark. A1 license allows to ride motorcycles up to 11 kW (15 hp) and 125cc. In some countries driver licence will automatically grant you A1 license (some require 1 day training). The thing is, this power limitation of 11 kW is...

It's getting serious, CEO of Yamaha Motors France steps down to become CEO of Electric Motion, they have projects for big bikes in off-road and MX, competition and production. https://moto-station.com/moto-verte/nouveautes-moto/electric-motion-monte-en-puissance-avec-yamaha/684275

80 hp (peak power) Varg EX legal to ride with A1 license (125cc license) in Europe, or even just driver license in some countries, all thanks to continuous power being rated at 9 kW (12 hp), that's the fastest 125 ever 🤣 I was more used to seeing continuous power to peak power ratio at 1:2 or...
