    Aw, c'mon now! It does look like a puddle mud rather than something that you'd cause with a pressure washer. I believe it. But yeah, @Matt should still get into that mud pit again and take more pictures and a video! :LOL:

    Alta "Factory" Rider Dream

    Besides convincing ourselves, we would also need to sell this to the promoters, like AJ said. They run a cool show where riders race cool bikes. Recently it has been exclusively 2-strokes. They don't care to cater to the bike manufacturers, which is great. But how would they become interested...

    Alta "Factory" Rider Dream

    Are we talking this year or next? I couldn't find any Straight Rhythm dates or announcements online.

    Wow, this changes things. I took the liberty of formatting the post because it was not clear whose words they were.

    Alta "Factory" Rider Dream

    Ask AJ if he wants to do it, and if so, then ask what he needs. With pro riders, I have no idea how much they would charge for a gig like this. I am guessing that, depending on the rider, it could range from all-expense-paid to tens of thousands of dollars. As far as the bike, I think we could...

    Does BIKEGRAPHIX have more free graphics? Seeing these two bikes made me want to update the old graphics on my bikes. Since we do not have annual product updates anymore, we might as well do our own BNG updates! Riding the red one would make me feel as if I am already riding a 2025 CRE or a...

    The Storm Bee is out!

    I am afraid that if I land hard and hit the handlebar with my chin, the front brake hose will wrap around my neck and decapitate me.

    GM electric crate motor kit

    Great info, thank you! This definitely helps relieve the range anxiety! I haven't been able to see the Plugshare and ChargePoint prices, but at Electrify America, at $0.43 per kWh (or $0.31 per kWh + $4/mo fee), the price of electricity is almost twice of what it would cost to fuel an ICE car...

    How dangerous would a high voltage extension cord be?

    Imagine how strong you would become if you decide to ride your single track with the second battery on your back!

    How dangerous would a high voltage extension cord be?

    Are you going to hide the trailer in the bushes while riding your secret singe track? If you do not have experience with making connectors, then making high-voltage and low-mileage extension cables and connectors would be a PITA. But you don't have to make them. You can disconnect the original...

    GM electric crate motor kit

    I recently switched my daily auto read from a yellow-journalism Jalopnik to Electrek. Lots of interesting stuff to read there! I saw that article on Electrek a few days ago. The reader comments were that a new Chevy Bolt-based crate EV motor kit would probably cost more than a used Bolt EV. Has...

    AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AN SM WITH KNOBBIES

    Steve and I were talking about lowering one of my Altas for my girlfriend. I measured that the SM wheels alone would create a 1.5" drop. Then lower the seat and the suspension, and maybe then we could enjoy some trail riding together.

    Thinking about getting another e-dirt bike: Which One?

    The video now works, thank you! I should be in Havasu on the morning of the 23rd.

    Thinking about getting another e-dirt bike: Which One?

    Hey Don! I will be in Havasu in 1 month. Hoping to check out your conversion. And you could benchmark my Altas all winter long at 928MX or at Western Raceway! Yamaha should be a great platform for a motocross e-bike. Stable and not twitchy, strong enough to handle the extra weigh of the motor...

    well grounded Alta

    This reminds me of riding a stock MX on a motocross track. I had to land it from jumps rear wheel first and on the throttle in order not to hit the ground with my boots' heels!

    2nd Alternate / Additional Alta Display?

    I have an idea. You could buy a second display from @Rashid510 and mount it somewhere hidden away. If the original breaks, then plug the harness into the second display. This option used to cost $200. Not sure what it costs now.
