    Ktm freeride questions

    Congrats on sticking with it, @Rocketz152 !!! Coming back from an injury is not easy. Take it slow and prioritize your health first. If you need to ride a smaller bike, so be it. I was out for many years after a knee injury. After that, I realized that I still do not enjoy anything as much as...

    General EMX ready for pre-order.

    I only saw the €950 pre-order price. Where did you see €19K? Does this EV powertrain kit come with a brand-new Yamaha in a crate? Then I would say the price is fair. Although, selling a new ICE engine on eBay won't bring down the cost all that much. It would still be cheaper to buy two Altas.

    Top speed Stark Varg

    Are you worried about keeping up with the traffic, or do you complete with the 450's at the track? My first reaction is that with 80hp you should have no problem either way. But, just like with the Alta, the big question remains for how long you can maintain the maximum power without...

    I am sure the Varg, like the Alta, has a 3-axial accelerometer chip. It will show exactly 1g of downwards acceleration every time the bike is up in the air. Disable traction control when this happens for longer than 0.5 seconds. Problem solved. I hope the Varg has a 3-axial gyro chip too...

    Ha! We do the same on the Alta by changing from the stock 12-tooth front sprocket to 13T or 14T. This decrease the mat torque by 7-14% and makes the bike more rideable at low speeds, allows you to pin the throttle and hold it wide open. And you can then use Map 4 more often, and the bike will...

    What you are describing here in such a great detail, Matt, is exactly what Tesla has been working on. So, 14 years after they have sold their first car, they are still working on improving this algorithm based exactly on the inputs that you are describing. And that is so that folks never "ran...

    General The "Big 6" will catch up... maybe in 4-5 years

    I think the "tool" would also be somewhat complex and possibly expensive. If you remove the structural battery pack, then the bike can fall apart, unless it is held by the "tool" and two people. But I am really glad that this tool exists and Stark finally realized that there will be a demand for...

    Congrats on your electric racing achievements, @DirtFirst! Not to try to diminish the accomplishments of KTM, but I think the Gypsies were talking about Stark Future being ambitious enough to take a technological leading role in the dirt bike industry. And, from what I am hearing, they could...

    Also, roll the throttle forward for an adjustable supermoto-style regen! All e-bikes should have that feature!

    I would take a Horn button over any Reverse button on any day! Yes, a Horn button must come standard on ALL MODELS!

    I want a 5" front wheel lift going down the entire length of the starting straightaway please!

    This is very-very important! Thank you for clarifying that! I noticed folks were fiddling with the % of max power setting and the regen brake setting only. And on a 60-hp model most were fairly comfortable when the power was set to 90%. This is a good baseline already. With a tunable TC and...

    Wil it be filled with chocolate or cream?

    The "Professional" media goons are silly rabbits!

    I wish I could understand better what that ideal rpm / torque relationship you think should be. Maybe then we could ask Stark to make it that way. I can roll or ride my Alta into my motovan fast or very slowly, with a much better control than I can ride my gas bikes. It is not all torque or...
