    Stark Varg foot or hand brake?

    It is nice to see aftermarket support on our Forum again. Welcome, @TheLHRBguy!

    Terrific - but will it be effective off-road ?

    I would say the Alta feels like a 125cc in tight turns.

    Terrific - but will it be effective off-road ?

    Slippery, muddy, and inconsistent traction situations is where Alta shines the most. Altas have dominated ice races and muddy supermoto competitions. I climbed loose gravel hills that I was even afraid to look at, or attempt on my 2-stroke Husky with a Rekluse. I had a lot of fun in all muddy...

    New ALTA Alternative -Stark VARG - From Europe

    It appears that Alta negotiated as much as they could to pay as little as they could up front. When they went under, many of the suppliers were left with huge accounts receivable. This made it extremely difficult to whoever wanted to buy the company to actually restart the operations. They would...

    New ALTA Alternative -Stark VARG - From Europe

    Fsfs, you appear to have some inside knowledge of the engineering being the Varg. Are you somehow connected to the company? I am also curious what else you could tell us.

    Does anybody know how to reset code 37

    I think it would be a good idea to remove the bottom cover, check the bladder for integrity, and replace the desiccant pack. Then you can clear the error code with a Multitool computer. https://altaownersforum.com/threads/code-37.2333/

    Does anybody know how to reset code 37

    It sounds like this code is not a fluke. It's probably a better idea to fix the moisture problem first before resetting the code. Else you might soon have to look for a new battery.

    What is the problem with the bike? What does the display say?

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    I do not think it is an important question. Folks like 125cc bikes and folks like 500cc bikes. On the former, you pin and hold on and it does all its own traction control. On the latter, you feed the throttle gently and hope it doesn't kill you. It is fun either way. I am sure being able to pin...

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    Lyndon had some heavier flywheels for sale, but nobody knows who bought them. A heavier flywheel reportedly saves a few seconds per lap at Glen Helen. I also think it is a must in the sand.

    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    I noticed that, compared to the Alta, the 450's have a lot less wheelspin, and they throw a lot less roost. The wheelspin and the roost are all wasted energy. The 450's have very heavy flywheels. Their engines have to accelerate those flywheels. The flywheels reduce the wheelspin, but they...

    Stark VARG suspension choices

    I am wondering how closely Stark will actually be able to guess the spring rates and the damping rates that riders desire. Very few OEM suspensions are rideable from the showroom floor. Many come with a weird front/rear balance, most come undersprung, good only for slow beginner riders (who do...

    New ALTA Alternative -Stark VARG - From Europe

    I am hoping that Stark becomes successful enough before someone buys it. This was not just KTM but all the Japanese manufacturers will become afraid of it.

    New ALTA Alternative -Stark VARG - From Europe

    These days EV pre-orders can get you investments, valuations, IPOs, and buyout offers from bigger companies. Let's hope Stark draws KTM out of business before KTM offers to buy them out.
