    FIM pushes e-dirt bikes

    Completely agree! Bring back the Open Class!!! Power vs. range/weight/cost. Exactly! Do not limit the cost either. Let me market decide what to buy and what not to buy. An expensive electric bike is still cheaper to own and ride than a cheap gas bike.

    FIM pushes e-dirt bikes

    Speaking as an Alta owner, not as an AOF admin, I think that, if you are at that meeting, then you can say whatever you think the most true statement is. Our forum has 924 members, about a half of whom currently own Alta or similar electric bikes, and the rest are/were curious enough to...

    MX vs MXR

    There are other people "in the same boat as you", just on the other end of it. You should consider swapping bikes!

    FIM pushes e-dirt bikes

    Feel free to tell them that you are representing 924 electric MX bike owners. We want to buy and race full-size dirt bikes that are at least as fast and capable as our Alta bikes. They must be able to compete directly with gas bikes. Nothing less would do.

    FIM pushes e-dirt bikes

    This meeting and MX track exhibition would be incomplete without Alta Motors or Alta owners representation. Remember, 2-3 years ago they had some MX race in Italy (Maggiorra??), where they had an electric bike class. We thought we could bring one Alta there and win the class, lapping the entire...

    New high performance E-MX from Germany

    Is this some supermodified Tesla Model S battery in there rewired for a higher voltage? I am wondering why does it have to be one battery and this particular shape?

    Suspension differences between SM & EX/R?

    These are all heavy adventure-based bikes. They have almost nothing in common with motocross and supermoto bikes. They never jump. Any motocross or supermoto bike from 125 to 500cc has at least 12" of travel.

    FIM pushes e-dirt bikes

    Awesome! It was unlikely the AMA was going to start this, so I am very happy to hear that the FIM is doing this. It is important to do this early, before the green people shut down all good MX tracks in the world. After that, it would be too late, even if all the bikes are silent and electric.

    Suspension differences between SM & EX/R?

    The travel should be the same. Why would a supermoto suspension have a reduced travel? Also, why is this so important to you, what are you planning?

    If Judaslefourbe said it, then this is as directly from Alta as you will ever hear 😉

    Suspension differences between SM & EX/R?

    Not the same. According to our own incredibly credible sources, it has a special "bees knees" KTM supermoto suspension.

    Alta Test Track Build (In progress)

    This cool thread doesn't belong in "Off-Topic" anymore. I have made a new Race & Practice Tracks sub-forum for threads like this one!

    Alta Test Track Build (In progress)

    I have been scratching my head for the last two days thinking how I could possibly add jumps in the middle of my figure-8 track. If I make the landings less steep, would I then have to always ride it in the same direction, haha?
