Cool. I have moved this thread from "Alta Alternatives -- Production Intent" to "Small/Play e-Motorcycles". It is nice and very interesting to follow how some concepts are becoming a reality.

Ok, reading more into this, KTM "secretly" told all their dealers that they may have a full-size dirt bike in 3 years. I am sure Suzuki won't beat them to it. But Yamaha, Kawasaki, and even Honda just might. By that time Stark will be one of the "Big 7".. if Suzuki is still around. Kudos to...

Aren't all forks 48mm don't they all use the same seals? You can go to RMATNMC and use their OEM part number catalog. https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/oem-parts/KTM

The EXR comes with steel sprin WP Xplor forks that all Enduro KTMs had in 2018. The MXR comes with air spring WP AER48 forks that all MX KTMs had in 2018. The EX and the MX comes with steel spring WP 4CS forks that all KTMs had in 2015. The SM comes with steel spring WP "bees knees" forks...

Yes, I have noticed, and I have checked their website already. I like their tech. They are purpose built trials bikes with a "TKO" crawl mode and with a real clutch that so many Enduro guys want. I am surprised @Oded doesn't own an Escape R yet. Or does he???

I might want to buy an E pure too, I might need it, I just have no idea what that is, LOL! And Google is of no help.

Ha! I see room for a second battery. Maybe a second motor too for a total of 11.8 kWh and 100 hp!

Really? Oh! That's good to know! We have three different ChargePoint J1772 6.5 kW charging stations in town, and I also think they are free. If I had an on-board charger, I could ride into town midday for a lunch. The problem is that I do not have an on-board charger on my MXR. Yeah... I...

This was my bike today, charging at work for the first time, and possibly last. The general manager of the facility decided to put an end to letting the Zero owner charge his bike. I am not sure what the reason is, but I will try to find out. I had to beg to let me charge my Alta so that I don't...

This is on my way home today. It is an Alta MXR with SM wheels and 14/45 gearing. No tuck was needed. I was going in Mode 1 or 2 at about 75mph, then upshifted to Mode 4 and the bike almost pulled a wheelie. It must be gearing limited.

Where is this info coming from?

Thank you, Gary! I just came up with a crazy plan that might actually work. I could swing by Starvation Ridge "on my way" to Arizona. It will only be a 1,100-mile detour then instead of a 4,500 mile round trip. The timing is very tight though because I will be away most of September. And there...

Gas is getting cheaper! ;) What are the deadlines?

@OneLapper should be somewhere near you. We haven't heard from him for a while. Send him a PM if you want a riding buddy.

I always wear ear plugs when riding the Alta. The gears, the chain, and the wind noises are just not very satisfying. And at the MX tracks I do not want to listen to other bikes.

SOLD !!! :ricky:

Value-priced helmets named after Hindu gods... That's interesting. Back in my adventure riding days (5 years ago), I almost earned a PhD in helmet noise. The KTM 1190 Adventure R that I had had am atrocious tiny "windshield", the sole purpose of which was to generate as much helmet noise and...

Oh! Just saw this. I think I might want this for myself and/or my wife! I am in Ann Arbor. I am going to send you a PM!
