    Alta MX Cone Valve / Trax Suspension Swap

    It's worth keeping in mind that the MX/EX rear shock is the same model as the the 2014-2016 KTM rear shock. So you can call major suspension tuners and search the internet for 2014-2016 KTM shocks.

    Tripple tree for the SM setup!

    All Alta triple clamps are the same. Later models only had a better aluminum -- 7075-T6 (as opposed to 6061-T6). You should call @Mark911 and ask him about his KTMaha. He knows how to bold on various KTM stuff onto anything.

    Tripple tree for the SM setup!

    If you want to use a big Brembo front caliper, then you should buy Alta triple clamps and an Alta MX/EX/SM wheel axle. The Alta triple clamps set the folk legs 14mm wider apart than the KTM triple clamps, and the axle is also longer, which helps with the caliper/wheel clearance. Hopefully you...

    General 2018 MXR Quick Start Guide

    We have these MX/EX/SM guides here, but I think they became inaccurate as soon as they were published. https://electricdirtriders.com/threads/redshift-mx-ex-sm-quick-start-guides.1171/ If anyone has the latest quick start guides, please post an update.

    Withdrawn Complete Alta Drivetrain

    I am just maintaining this site. I haven't had to do any moderation in probably 2-3 years. I am not going to get involved in this.

    He thought he hated E-bikes, then he tried one! // Supercross racer’s reaction to an Alta EXR

    I think Stark should give each Alta owner a free Stark Varg. We are largely responsible for them pre-selling so many of their bikes already.

    Upgrade C4S to AER's - Possible?

    I know it is possible to change the WP 4CS internals to KYB SSS internals (not any cheaper). But where did you hear that you can change them to WP AER internals?

    Livewire is going public. Alta DNA now with 21700 batteries

    But would I still have to go to a Harley Davison dealership to buy and service one of these?

    Great photographer, found a view angle that is better than what 3D renderings have been showing.

    MXR Spring weight and Sag

    You'd gain a negligible amount of low-speed torque. The stock MXR gearing is 12/53, but many run 14/53 or 13/53. And I run 12/45. By going with taller gearing, you are losing low-end torque but gaining torque and power at speeds above 35mph. See the magic explained in the charts in the thread...

    MXR Spring weight and Sag

    This is all incorrect. RaceTech is notoriously clueless about N/mm and kg/mm. The stock MXR rear spring rate is 60 N/mm (6.1 kg/mm), and it should be pretty good for your weight and skill level. Also, many Alta riders have found that smaller race sags work better.

    MXR Spring weight and Sag

    You can also keep your chain, re-install the stock 12-tooth front sprocket, and buy a new 49-tooth rear sprocket. This will move the rear wheel back by 1 chain link. The new 12/49 ratio will be almost the same as your current 13/53 ratio.

    2018 MXR Suspension

    The forks on my Precision Concepts revalved bike are on the second line. The forks on my KTM World revalved bike are flush. I haven't experimented with the fork height much. The rear ride sag is 90mm on both bikes. I have experimented with sag and found 90mm to be a good number on hardpack...

    Upgrade C4S to AER's - Possible?

    Yes. If Liquid doesn't have them, then you can buy KTM/Husky/GasGas axle, spacers, and also triple clamps.

    Ktm freeride questions

    The Freeride has just 20hp (right??) It is like an 80cc equivalent. It doesn't have the suspension travel or probably even the frame strength to jump 80 ft jumps. I wouldn't risk it.
