    Wing Seats

    I tested this seat for the first time yesterday at Pala Raceway. OMG! It is so so nice! The width is a bit too wide, like the ~2015 YZF bikes. The grip is outstanding. I felt way more comfortable on this bike than before. If the knees are slightly ahead of the "wings" in the seat, then the bike...

    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...

    Power station? Eco Flow or Anker SOLIX F3800

    I am going to file for a 30% tax credit for my Anker Solix setup. Solar panels and "Battery storage technology with capacity of at least 3 kilowatt hours" -- all qualify! That's 30% of the purchase price back in my pocket! How to claim a residential clean energy tax credit | Internal Revenue...

    Rear hand brake - major fading, solution??

    Bull :poop:. They'd have to prove that your mod caused a problem being claimed under warranty.

    Can-Am Electric Motorcycles

    Thanks! I didn't know about it. That's a good start. But it is a boring low-power Prius-style hybrid. More weight and complexity in the name of reduced emissions and a better fuel economy. I was thinking of a pure EV drive unit so that the maximum electric torque is plentiful and instantly...

    My 240v Battery/Inverter Track Side Charging Setup

    Wow, how the prices have come down. That's pretty amazing. I had a similar setup back in ~2019, with five BattleBorn LiFePO4 batteries and an AIMS inverter/charger. I paid $6K for that setup, but the batteries kept dying on me. Luckily, I managed to sell the batteries on eBay before the prices...

    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...

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

    In other words, you would like two chargers: 1) a stationary charger to keep at home near or under your favorite bike stand, and 2) a light and compact charger to travel with. I wish my Alta chargers had worked with the Stark. Then I would have had just that! Looks like there might be a...

    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...

    Owner's Review Stark Varg - First Customer Review!

    I miss the throttle control, the low-speed traction control, and the stand-up ergonomics of the Alta. I may be slower on the Alta but I am definitely more comfortable on it. The Stark crawl mode is okay, but I didn't need it on the Alta. Hill climbing was easier on the Alta, more traction. The...

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

    The Alta Rapid charger in a Pelican case weighs 27 lbs. The plastic case is 6 lbs and the charger internals and the long cables are 21 lbs. All the cables are neatly tucked inside when the charger is not in use. I could repurpose one of my Alta Rapid chargers to hold the Stark charger internals...
