    General Great leg sleeve for under knee braces

    I have been using Copper Fit Elite Air Knee Sleeves from Costco/Amazon under my CTi braces for the last 5 years. I have a bad knee, so I need extra support, and they have been working awesome for me! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BWLBZJYX/?tag=sce0f-20

    Owner's Review I Finally got my Stark…Pros and Cons

    Then you will always ride with a super long throttle travel and, if you set it to open fully earlier, you never know if you are at full power or not. It will be like adding a free play at the end of the throttle where wrist motions do not result in "throttle" motions. Not a great throttle feel...

    Owner's Review I Finally got my Stark…Pros and Cons

    Access the 80 HP by removing the limit screw! Seriously though, this is an excellent idea. Instead of buying short or long throttles, make the throttle travel physically adjustable.

    Brembo Rear Hand Brake Issue - Hose Hitting the Handlebars

    Oh! Sorry, I thought I saw a slight bend in the photo. You can usually bend these lines too. I have done it in the past. Use some soft aluminum on both sides of the banjo when clamping it a vice. I used an Amazon brake line, and it had a bend, but it was in the wrong direction. I tried to...

    Brembo Rear Hand Brake Issue - Hose Hitting the Handlebars

    Flip the upper banjo. You'd have to twist the hose, it can take a 180-degree twist. Not optimal but better than other alternatives.

    Xtrig Triple Clamps

    Why Xtrig triple claps? What are you trying to achieve, a different steering feel, or want a solid mounted handlebar?

    Here is my major rub with Stark.

    So far, all the bikes that were sold are still under warranty. There is no reason for Stark to start offering small internal parts if folks would most likely drag their bikes to the dealer or email Stark, who has been sending entire replacement batteries, inverters, chargers, and motors if...

    Post Your ***STOCK*** Stark Varg Suspension Clicker Settings!

    If you want to try to soften (speed up) the compression, you should soften (speed up) the rebound too. Otherwise, the forks will compress, compress, compress, and not rebound until you are through the chop. The compressed forks have a compressed spring, and it feels harsh. Often, you should...

    2025 KTM Freeride E

    Unlike Tesla and BYD in the EV car world, and Stark and Surron in the EV moto world, nobody else is making any money on electric vehicles! And KTM simply cannot afford more losses. The good news is Stark has been making some money, last time I heard the news on the subject. And Tesla is making...

    Do our Vargs actually, "regen"?

    Deviating from the topic, sorry. But I just had an epiphany... You are absolutely right! I used to run 50% regen and I thought it was really good at Glen Helen when the track was wet and tacky. Then I switched to 40% and I thought it was better. Yesterday, at my local dry/hardpack/gravel track...

    Does anyone know exactly which KTM Super Duke brake caliper works on the Stark Varg

    Do you know if they use the KTM Super Duke caliper bracket too?

    Favorite hp setting for track on stark varg

    45hp and 40% regen works for our local dry hardpack track. More hp only causes more rear wheelspin and slower corner exits. I reduced it from the old 50hp setting and started exiting the turns much faster with less tail wagging. It is all track and surface dependent though.

    Owner's Review The Torpedo bat of Dirt Bikes, first impressions.

    I used to complain about the on/off throttle. I think Stark Future has been reading because I too noticed that my Stark is now loading into my trailer just as smoothly as my Alta does! Also, I no longer have to shift to the 35 hp setting for flat dusty or gravely turns. Keeping the bike in the...

    Bonnell 40hp and 60hp dirt bikes and e-bikes

    New segments is where the fast growth it. In the established segments you have to displace established companies, so any new product has to be either a lot better or a lot cheaper. In new segments you just have to have a product.
