    BYD E-VALI All-Electric Van (Europe only)

    New BYD E-Vali electric van offers more cargo space than the Ford E-Transit but less range. Needs a bigger battery. The US market may not see BYD any time soon because Ford and GM will then be dead. Here are some specs for the BYD E-Vali electric van: Battery: 80.64 kWh LFP blade battery...

    Do you switch maps while riding? I do.

    Do you know that some of the fastest pros often ride around the track in taller gears in order to be smooth and have the most traction? What is the equivalent of this on an electric bike? The equivalent is riding in a map with low throttle sensitivity. Or in a low-power map in the current Stark...

    Can you spot two 240V extension cables in these pictures?

    Sometimes the cables of the stock charger are just not long enough. What if you want to park your electric bike much farther away from your 240V outlet/power station/noisy generator? Can you spot two 240V extension cables in these pictures?

    The FASTEST Car You CAN BUY! McMurtry Speirling Pure BREAKS RECORDS

    Wow! Finally, someone made a (somewhat) production fan car! It has only been 54 years since the Chaparral Can-Am fan car (1970) and just 46 years since the Brabham F1 fan car (1978). It is really interesting to see what engineering decisions went into this. The car is electric, with adjustable...

    Check if your bolts and screws are still there

    I have lost one of the bolts holding the front fender and caught one of the rear fender bolts barely hanging half-way out. Check and tighten all your tiny bolts guys, most of them are pretty loose from the factory. I am going to use Loctite on all of them from now on. Additionally, check the...

    Hill Hold -- Stark, please make it Optional

    I like the Crawl mode. I like the Reverse mode. The Crawl mode is better than other modes for bike loading and especially bike washing since it stays on and does not disengage itself after just ~30 seconds. I want to use the Crawl and Reverse modes more often, but both of these modes come with...

    Roll your handlebars forward!

    If you think the stock Stark handlebars have a weird bend, or should be moved forward, then try rolling them forward. I parked my Altas next to the Stark, and it struck me that the stock Stark handlebar ends were pointing down and were swept too far back. But this weird bend becomes normal if...

    Charging with Active Cooling System

    Turns out it is possible to turn the active cooling system on while charging your Stark Varg. It would be cooling the motor and the inverter but not the battery. Why would anyone want to turn the cooling system on? What are the pros and cons? See at the 0:37 minute mark.

    Poll: Are you using the original Stark Varg Stand/Charger as intended?

    The design decision to combine the bike stand with the battery charger has received mixed reviews. Some thought it was cool, whereas others outright refused to lug around the clunky contraption that weighs 41 lbs (19 kg) and came up with various alternative solutions that separated the charger...

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

    Post Your ***STOCK*** Stark Varg Suspension Clicker Settings in this thread! My ***latest*** settings are in my 3/26/2025 post. I got my Stark over a month ago. The dealer or the factory had a few clickers slightly off, and I so wasted a few practices figuring stuff out. Eventually, I set the...

    Eddie Karlsson Stark VARG GoPro | Battle of Veklings Extreme Enduro

    Re-posting this great video here. There is a forum discussion about this already here. His battery lasted 2.5 hours of racing, which is almost unbelievable! I am equally impressed that his GoPro also lasted just as long.

    Alta Redshift passes everybody and leads (and almost wins) a race! :) I am so out-of-shape that it is embarrassing to watch my own videos. I was in an ER ten days ago with a compressed disk in my back. But I went to see the track on Friday and decided I wanted to race. I paced myself, took a...
