Thanks for the video, @Theo !!! I am going to re-post it here: I am summarizing the points made by Nick Tomasunas: 1) Nick says gas bikes cannot compete. They are not capable of the same "up-side-down-ness" as electric bikes. You may be able to whip it, but you won't have the power to bring...

Maybe it is too easy to make triple backflips. You can program them to accelerate to a set speed and then spin to a precise angle for landing. Anyone can do it! :cool:

Now, if only we could tell which RPM we are at in each section of the track...

Screenshots should work by pressing the power and the volume down buttons simultaneously. On Samsung phones you also must release both buttons within 1-2 seconds.

IIRC, when I plugged that connector into the stock headlight, the tiny running light bulb at the bottoms started shining. I didn't even have any other harness on my bike at that time.

Maybe there is 12V there all the time, maybe there isn't, but from what I have learned reading about the Alta, the bike checks the resistance before supplying the voltage to each external circuit, so if your resistance is not within the expected range, then you won't get 12V out of the bike...

That's what I thought too. /Political rant/ I agree that tariffs are indeed stupid. Not every foreign company is subsidized by foreign governments or has the luxury to move production to the US. These tariffs are against the US consumers. They will be added to the price of the goods on top of...

Heads up! 🏁 Dust Pre-Seed Funding Goal Reached ✅ They used Wefunder. The closing date is March 7th (today!). https://wefunder.com/dustmoto I like what they are building and how they are building it. I have just invested. :ricky:

Electric Hybrid Vehicle Technology.com magazine has an article on electric motorcycles, including the Stark Varg. https://www.electrichybridvehicletechnology.com/ https://ehv.mydigitalpublication.co.uk/november-2024/page-52

Done. I have added more metrics and colors to the data summary above.

However, the trend from the last 6 rounds also matters. Maybe there was a breaking point after which everything started improving and will keep improving. We will see... The two Prescott rounds were clearly his two worst ones. It must be the slippery dirt that I saw.

Alright. With more data, it now looks like only the fastest laps are improving. What that means, I think, is that when he sees/feels the advantage of the Stark, then he goes for it. Otherwise, he settles and plays it safe.

Conclusions: - Gurthie and Prescott didn't work for Hicks on a Stark very well. - Reno was a mixed bag. - Daytona was great for Hicks on a Stark. - Hicks on a Stark is less consistent than Hicks on a Yamaha. - All the trendlines are towards faster lap times for Hicks on a Stark. In the next...

Let's geek out on statistics!

Yes, Hicks is awesome. Wins a heat, does the post-race interview, them walks over to the starting gate when his other bike is already waiting for him. I was planning watch his lap times on both bikes, but when I started playing attention, I think he had the worst start ever on the Stark and...

This is from 2 weeks ago in Prescott, AZ

Now we are talking Traction Control. As far as I know, the Alta has a simple and effective RPM acceleration limit in each map. Yes, a heavier flywnheel would definitely help the Stark. @DonCox and I were at the Arenacross in Prescott, AZ a couple of weeks ago, and we watched how the Stark pro...

Selling my Guts Racing RJ Wing Seat cover already installed onto the stock Stark Varg seat pan and foam. I would trade it for your stock black seat if you want to add $200. Or, if you want to buy it outright, it is $350 for the complete assembled seat, shipped to you within the USA. The seat...
