Saw a vid of an Alta with a timbersled kit last week on facebook. Couldn’t find the vid later on youtube, though. But it looked fun (for probably 20 minutes before the battery ran down.)

Sadly, not an option. Took me 10 years to convince her to let me teach my sons to ride. Plus, she’s 5’ nothing, probably couldn’t reach the pegs, let alone the ground.

Super tempted. But I imagine it would be pretty hard to ride after my wife killed me for buying another bike. Death definitely makes achieving proper riding form difficult. But would love to get one for my older son and swap out his TTR230. Then I could just be done with gas bikes altogether...

I put together a couple videos on how to build an adapter so that you can plug your Alta Rapid Charger into a standard 110v/120v US receptacle. These are obviously pretty simple tasks if you have done them before. But for folks new to the Alta Redshift or ones that are considering buying one...

I am available for adoption. Just give me a place to sleep, a couple square meals now an then, and a couple electric bikes.

You need to get your kid to do a video review, like the Deegan kids did. I'm interested to hear what they say.

@Wade, you still online? Or did you just give up on fixing your bike? I sent a couple PMs, but Wade isn't answering. Anyone else talk to him lately?

If you just flip the mudflap over, it will hit the tire going forward. Then you have a cool “motor” sound, so other bikes can hear you coming! Kinda like cards in the spokes.

My main concern would be weight, since they are almost 300 lbs. I think you would want them low for center of gravity of the van/trailer. You might need to worry about too far forward or back, especially with a trailer, unless you will be counterbalancing with bikes or a generator, etc. While...

Talk about dangerous, I rode through a herd of savage ATVs recently. They were kicking up dust and spinning donuts, running into each other, tipping over, and basically performing the basic hooligan rutting rituals of most adolescent ATVs. Thanks to my silent approach and the clouds of dust, I...

I definitely see a lot more wildlife riding my Alta. Almost every ride, we come up on deer and other critters. Saw a bobcat with cubs this summer. That would have never happened on my four-stroke.

The bike has accelerometers. You can see the data-points in Multitool. @TCMB371 even noted them in his How-To video when he pointed out that it was showing his bike was leaned over a bit at the time he made the video. The problem is that these are dirt bikes. (Street is a bit different.)...

Gotta be careful with things like Reverse. Inexperienced drivers can abuse it accidentally. Kinda like the novice driver that gets into a car with an automatic transmission for the first time. First, they shift to (L)eap for a good fast start, then they shift to (D)rag for excellent...

Sheesh! I would just pull the connector, then have the inspector lick the battery terminals. (Hey, it works on 9v batteries, am I right?) That would certainly prove to them if it worked or not. If he is still able to swear at you in colorful French after the test, then it is probably not...

Those shrouds belong to @Blatant Moto. I asked him about them in this thread. Sold - Vin001

I changed the “terminal” line too. Otherwise I had a similar issue of it not doing anything.

That makes sense. I actually modified the shortcut on my own desktop slightly, so I never had this issue. I changed the command from “redshift_multitool” to “sudo redshift_multitool”, and I switched the terminal property from false to terminal=true in the .desktop file for the shortcut. Not...

There’s another thread on this. Post your Miles/Hours

@Philip, Maybe you could follow up with @ayden_kry. I still haven’t seen a ton of stuff from them on ebay, just a few of the basics. Wonder if they are still unboxing.

Did you “launch” version 3.36 before installing 3.37? That was a step that was skipped in the instructions, but called out by @TCMB371 in his video. If so, did 3.36 load okay?
