    A little bit about my 2008 YZ250F Electric Conversion

    The KTM was 2nd. The Alta was too fast, it pulled a wheelie, it was not a fair race! :cool:

    Welcome! Paper owners manuals never existed, as far as I know. You might have to download the PDF and use a printer.

    It is a camo wrap. Automakers use it on not-yet-revealed test vehicles to make it more difficult for spy photographers to take good pictures.

    California banning dinosaur bikes.

    Honda/Yamaha/KTM need to hurry up! The ready-set-go countdown has started. Which reminds me... I need to set the AOF Countdown to January 1st, 2035.

    California banning dinosaur bikes.

    Elon Musk needs to go into the dune buggy, quad, and motorcycle business!!! I recently rode a dune buggy here in Havasu, and the most frustrating and Zen-destroying part, compared to riding my Alta, was the constant noise.

    Too much light too, it spoils the mystery.

    SONDORS Metacycle $5K electric motorcycle

    Perhaps they should have the rear tire made of solid rubber. Else, this bike will run great only until its first pothole. Another good option is a very fat tire in the rear, mounted on a solid steel wheel. Perhaps, then they could reduce the weight and the cost even further by deleting the rear...

    2021 Alta Rally/Race/Meetup (September 25-26)

    Ram Jam is just 2 hours from me when I am in Michigan in the summer. Maybe I will check them out in April-May-June when the whole Midwest is often under water.

    Alta Custom Build

    @YDW_Eric -- We are probably neighbors April through November. I will send you a PM. I am sure Mark911 has it, but he made it himself, therefore we can't have it! But Mark likes answering intelligent questions asked by intelligent people, so you should persist!

    Elisava students create the first 100% electric off-road sports rescue motorcycle

    Cool class project. But I think this should be filed under "DIY".

    SONDORS Metacycle $5K electric motorcycle

    As far as I know, most of the demo days were initiated by local Alta sales reps, who carried several demo bikes in their Sprinter vans. Dealers do not put up any dirt bike demo days without factory approval and financial support anyway. I am also looking at this this $5K price, and realizing...

    I remember Alta promising 80 miles at one time and 50 miles at another.

    SONDORS Metacycle $5K electric motorcycle

    Yeah, Sondors is probably lying about the range, just like everyone else in the EV industry. But with an additional battery pack in that gaping hole, perhaps they can exceed the Alta's range.
