I have to agree a little bit on the noise though. While training with slow riders (i'm slow, but even i pass people) you have to be really carefull because they don't notice you comming up. I have that less on my 2 stroke. The 4 strokes really don't hear you although the guys riding enduro bikes...

I'm not sure what you mean? You would want the red part in my picture right? So the topside? That is different between both because the MX is missing 2 points where the rear EX fender (the black thing that i added) bolts on to. I know that it fits and works how i put it, but if you add the...

Didn't the EX come with very short gearing? I believe i heard as low as 12-50 stock although that might be off. That would add significant RPM's and thus sound. I do hate they take speed from the motor itself. Changing the gearing or wheels would greatly affect ground speed. If only they put an...

I have a Stark and a 300 2 stroke Enduro. When i ride that there is not a single 450 MX rider that can hear me comming up. I have an easier time to hear a Stark comming up on my 300 than i do hearing a 2 stroke comming up when i ride a 4 stroke. To make the kind of noise to overcome a 450 you...

The KYB's sure are "the shit" and can do anything when setup well. However you can't please rider who like stiff and jumping tabletops and riders who like plush and do rock crawling at the same time. I have them in the Stark and on my Beta RR 300 Racing. The Stark is setup for MX and the Beta...

All licence holders (all riders) got an email stating this. The explanation was that those KTM bikes were empirically proven save over the past few years... This didn't hold for long since quite the outcry started and even local governments got involved because they have great interest in...

Here clubs needs basic training for at least 1 official who is there, 1000V rubber gloves AND 1 F500 fire extinguisher. Total cost about 250 euro, so not that big of a deal.

In the early Stark days in the Netherlands all electric MX bikes except KTM's were banned from training on MX tracks under the KNMV (biggest of the 2 relugators). How obvious do you want it to be...

The Stark MX weighs 118kg to the bloody dot when new. That you swapped out tubes and probably tires is not Stark lying about the weight. Very true, the 1st gen powertubes were a joke. But they have updated them. They all started leaking at the rimlock. Now the tubes are a tad thicker and have...

@FYR for what year EXC are your wheels? I will contact them monday. The KTM front discs are the same size and are interchangeble with Beta and Stark (on both i have used KTM discs in the past). When i offset the wheel 2mm they slide perfect in the brake caliper. Anyhow the thickness is the same...

Yeah this is why i'm so surprised. I know KTM used different axle thickness and spacers, but with the proper spacers all wheels fitted al bikes. That this has a different offset for the brake disc is puzzling. Maybe a mistake at the aftermarket supplier...

We get it you hate the damn thing. Do you need my adres to drop the thing off? So far i had 1 faillure in over 1,5 years. Not too bad for any dirtbike, let alone a gen1 from a startup.

Well i remember a case where one of our friends Beta wouldn't start after he crashed. He spend some time pushing after wich i took over. His handlebar switch had turned and the stop button was pushed by his throttle wire. Turned the switch a bit and MIRACLE, the bike started :ricky:

No all Starks have an "endless" chain. Less work to install in the factory and leas to go wrong. I install a masterlink on every bike though. Ik would however take tools to pull the rear axle though. That way you can take the endless chain off and if by some miracle (or the bike was never...

Once the Brake pads and Brake pads holder pin are out it should slide right off.

Drive train is the motor incl inverter, no battery.

As far as i knew all KTM wheels should fit these bikes. The KTM wheels i had lying about all fitted. However i now have ordered a 17' front wheel, with KTM spacers also perfect in centre, however the brake disc is 2mm too far outwards... Have i been stupid and missed there are 2 kinds of KTM...

I'm not sure about that. They very early adapters were, but with nearly 1000 bikes per month we're past that stage. And about big players sweeping in... What big players? - The Japanese haven't been innovating in MX/Endure since before most promising riders of today were born. The Honda E is...

Lets also not forget that with new tech comes start up problems.

Did you leave the subframe of the 450fc or did you weigh the Charger with the Stark? The 450 is 104kg without fuel. The Stark 118kg (wich i know is true) 14kg gap - +-6kg fuel is 8kg gap or 17lbs gap...
