    Tubliss on Front Wheels

    I usually run between 10 and never more than 15 in the front for woods riding. Three years ago I picked up a nail in the Colorado San Juans. I use the Tubeliss system. The hole was a tear and after three attempts to plug it I gave up and ran it flat. For the next five days I rode the rocks...

    I have been accused of being just a little outside the norm myself. I like it there.

    Look at it this way Butch, it already has the AltaVault installed as well as the skid plate, kickstand, and lighting.

    Changing Maps with Dealer laptop?

    Is there any other software on the dealer laptop other than the Multitool Sofware? Would there be any other advantage to having a dealer laptop then?

    Sold Street Legal MX

    Just got a call from the "buyer", He is spooked the range might not be all he had hoped so the bike is up for sale again. If anyone needs just the bike as a second or third I will keep the charger and cut the price to $7,950. Remember this is a fully street legal almost new bike.

    Who wants to ride in the snow?

    The engine side covers I took off, sandblasted, then Painted with SEM trim black paint (Style only). The skid plate is one I made from Kevlar and carbon fiber and it is for protection. Last week at Highland park I got to test it. For the entire trip it keep almost every bit of mud off the...

    One-man battery removal setup

    The high voltage is different. There is a red lock slide to lift, no black tab to push, and the orange tab to press seems not to want to clear the gate as in something is blocking it.

    One-man battery removal setup

    Watched the battery removal again. It is for the A pack. The R pack has a different set of connectors. So as not to break anything , what is the sequence?

    AOF Addiction

    I was out riding ( my Alta of course ) and I could not check the site for several days. It felt really weird, like I NEEDED to check it. Join me up for AA ( Alta Anonymous ).

    Glad you are feeling good enough to ride again. The season has just begun and all of us are itching to get out on our bikes. I'm sure it was a long seven weeks.

    Battery level - stupid question

    Here is another battery question that I figure is stupid and that every Alta owner knows....except me. Can the A pack battery be used in place of an R pack? I have my '19 EXR but I could just keep my other Alta '17 MX with the A type battery if I could use it in the EXR (granted not as much...

    Owner's Review Redshift MXR owners ride review

    Crowds - we try to avoid the weekends for just that reason. Riding Monday through Friday it is almost solitary. Last Year in early March, There was only three others there the whole week and we never saw them on the trail. Glenn got me into Alta life when he let a friend and I share their...

    Owner's Review Redshift MXR owners ride review

    I have the EXR loaded on the trailer and in the garage for our trip to Highland Park, GA (another great place to ride when the weather is iffy up North). We should be there by Monday morning. Last year I bought the MX there after a test ride and this will be the maiden voyage for the new one...

    Lower CG for Better Handling

    My background is deep woods and enduro type riding. If I ever went off a triple it would be totally a screw up on my part !! I want to ride the bike for five days straight in GA first week in April before I play with anything on battery relocation. Looks like it will be pretty simple to...

    Lower CG for Better Handling

    It just seems like more of the ribbed section of the battery would be out from under the frame for more air flow but the biggest might be the airflow you might pick up over the top. Thanks Steve for the info on the cable slack, I probably will play around with it when I get the time. Let me...

    Lower CG for Better Handling

    A secondary thought is that it may also aid in cooling since you are dropping it into the airstream a little more and separating it from other heat producing components above the battery. You may get better air flow over the battery as well.
