    Aluminum lower battery cover! It's probably just white plastic, but I like to think that it is aluminum.

    This must be from circa 2017 or even earlier. It says "TEST PILOT KRIS KEEFER" on the subframe. The shock and the 4CS fork tells me this is an MX. And no "A" or "R" on the battery means that this is an early prototype. Very interesting!

    Sold (Not mine) MXR on ebay

    Ha! Novi, MI. Very interesting. I think this guy may be related to an ex-Alta dealer in Novi. I wanted to bargain with that dealer in November 2018, right after the bankruptcy, but they insisted at selling at MSRP and told me "Are you aware that we one or the only two dealers in Michigan?"...

    lighter-feeling front end

    The stock offset is already 18mm. I had to increase it to 22mm because I kept tucking the front end way too often.

    lighter-feeling front end

    Doesn't reducing the offset from 22mm to 18mm move the front wheel back, moving the weight bias further forward? Maybe it just shortens the wheelbase and makes it easier to lift the front wheel, despite the weight distribution.

    For Sale Cheap eBay (new) Moto stand -- maybe pricing mistake

    I got my money back yesterday. The seller told me to keep it, no need to return. I will! It is in Alta-yellow, maybe it will fit the black/white Polisport stand that I already have.

    Alta Custom Build

    You could buy the rest of the bike from Liquid Performance. They have almost all the parts. You'd have to find an Alta battery though for the stock inverter to work. Alternatively, you could contact the manufacturer of the motor, and maybe they would recommend a user-programmable...

    I own a Tesla Model Y. Tesla really spoils their owners with excellent ownership and driving experience. I will not be buying another new non-Tesla car or truck, gas or electric, until Tesla makes me a full-sized replacement motovan! Yeah, I am now a Tesla fanboy.

    Any interest in an ALTA Redshift Registry ? (POLL)

    Yes, this is possible. But for the purposes of reporting stolen bikes, preventing their sales, and possibly recovering them, wouldn't you want to keep this info visible to the entire internet? So, if we want to keep a confidential ownership registry, I think it should be kept separate from the...

    OOPS! I meant to move the Honcho's thread there, while also keeping a link to it in "General Discussion" for all to see, but I forgot. Now it is filed properly.
