Here in France 2025 SX450F: 12 450€ 350: 12 129€ 250: 11 819€ So the Varg is now slightly cheaper than 450SXF and slots in between the 350 and 250.

Hell yeah you're right, I tried with VAT number from random company and the price drops. Also means they adjust their own price in each EU country to keep identical price all over EU (with different VAT rates). I was completely wrong that's 12 k€ VAT included so that's now pretty competitive...

Yes they did that recently about the same time as new pricing. There used to be an option from the app to "buy" Alpha mode for a little over $1000/1000€, not sure if that's still there. This makes me moderately hopeful that they're getting away from this horrible trend of "software as a...

Edit: nope, just no, I got it all wrong, thanks Theo. I guess this part was right no one advertises vehicle prices without VAT here 🫣 I wish. Europe price is 11 999 € without VAT but I agree Stark website does not make that really clear (switch countries with different VAT and total is still...

US price is actually really cheap! $11 000 is about 10 100 €. Official price for Europe is 12 000 €. Might as well import one back from the US 🤣

Yeah I understand early adopters being a bit sorry for themselves although overall it can only be a good thing to have more affordable bikes. Another thing to consider is the unparalleled 2 years warranty covering all the issues that appeared, especially for early batches. Also, the Varg gets...

When you go to "Stark dealers" on Stark website, you can see their expanding dealer network (365 for now including 120 in the US). I've just noticed that you can also see detailed Varg inventory from every single dealer, that's pretty cool.

US VIN update: 8833 at Coyne Powersports CA

At last, great news from the FIM (who to this day have not explained the last minute change of rules from one year ago): https://enduro21.com/en/racing/latest/superenduro/electric-motorcycles-will-race-2024-2025-fim-superenduro-world-championship Now that electrics are allowed to race FIM...

Wow this guy is insane 😆 Definitely the good kind of insane but 4 hours video 🫣 He's the anti-influencer, super interesting content, poor video skills. I mean , even the summary is over 20 min, youtube is not a good platform for that. Unfortunately that will limit his reach a lot, if videos are...

Interesting to see Taddy go for the LHRB, frees his feet entirely to do whatever he needs to go over the obstacles. Karlsson uses hand brake as well, seems to be a clear advantage for enduro. I think all SX/MX official Stark riders kept the RFRB they have always been using. Edit: all SX/MX...

Damn, now I want this Varg trail bike with extended range! Add 50% more battery to get to 10 kWh (+14 kg), put in an onboard charger (+6 kg?), add some lights and accessories to make it road legal, if it stays below 145 kg / 320 pounds, the game is on.

They made it much simpler, just removing 1/4 of the cells keeping identical voltage, thermal management is identical, you lose 1/4 of power (so you "only" get 60 hp), lose 1/4 range, lose 7 kg (Molicel P45b cells weight 70 g each). Going from OP demand, with half the cells you get 40 hp, half...

Could they really be taking their Freeride E seriously? Husqvarna "freeride" possibly on the cards. If they bother to do that maybe that'll be a real effort. https://enduro21.com/en/bikes/latest/husqvarna-hint-at-new-electric-enduro-bike-for-2025

Some racing news Podium for Irsuti in France SX tour SX2 Podium for Taddy at his first indoor race (2-1-5 for Taddy B against 1-5-1 for Jonny Walker on his first race as a Triumph rider) Now that'd make things interesting to see him and Karlsson racing Endurocross and Superenduro whenever...

Yes, I've also mentioned it in another thread, now it's the official price in Europe and plenty of dealers apply the new prices in the US it obviously comes directly from Stark. https://electricdirtriders.com/threads/varg-production-numbers-vin.3551/page-4#post-40715 It also applies to models...

Zero motorcycles is offering up to 17 kWh batteries (upgradable to 21 kWh!) on their street bikes. Obviously we're talking street bikes over 200 kg, just to say that there is some margin to go for Stark for their road models.

They already kinda did that for Thomas Do racing France SX tour in 2023. He said that for the last 2 rounds they got him a lighter battery. They had probably removed 1 of the 4 parallel sets of 100 cells in series, so same voltage, maximum power reduced to 60 hp (reduced torque as well) and you...

They're maybe lobbying that it's dangerous to race E against ICE (which is obviously BS since it wasn't dangerous to race the Alta or the Freeride in AMA Endurocross and FIM superenduro, and also dozens of countries are allowing the Varg to race). They won't necessarily need to change their...

Thanks for your insight. Regarding KTM (and Honda and others), maybe they're just stalling it until they get ready for E racing, like MXEP starting in 2026?
