Well they need to milk one last bike of the current platform, the Varg SM, then they'll tackle new things. Smaller/lighter 85 style could make sense (if they can price it right!), as well as a bigger/higher range/pricier ADV at the other end of the scale.

Interesting bit from Forbes story Another wild card is tariffs, which currently stand at a manageable 10% in Europe, according to Wass. Higher tariffs could complicate efforts to break into the U.S. market if the situation changes, Wass said. However, he also believes that the company can...

Stark update: Stark Future Achieves Record Profitability for All-Electric Motorcycle Manufacturer June 2024: €10.4M revenue, €210k EBITDA April 2025: €18.3M revenue, €2.8M EBITDA April 2025 numbers are undoubtedly boosted by EX sales and pre-orders. That being said, in 10 months they went...

Under fairings might be asking a bit too much for DIY solution but anything fitting in a reasonably sized tank bag would be a win. Like this 11 liters bag (23*25*43 cm) for instance: https://sw-motech.com/en/products/luggage/tank+bags/PRO+tank+bag/4052572201565.htm

Buggy as hell, if you follow through, next screen it says July 20th. Anyway as we all know that's probably an optimistic estimate. Maybe October is the realistic one 😆

I think that's the first time I see someone who managed to do this backpack thing and actually plug it to a charging station. Kudos to that guy, and to you for finding this and posting it here. This shows this shouldn't be terribly hard for Stark to have an onboard charger when they release...

Also replied in comments he ordered it through his dealer and was ready to take one if his first batch, no matter the color. All dealers can't be served at the same time, Lithium powersports in Florida recently advertised a new batch, probably a bit of luck on his part and depending on port of...

New vid from Shane, loved the PW50 reference

At that point you might has well inquire with large Stark dealers shipping nationwide like Lithium powersports or Kaplan then cancel your original order. I believe some have been able to "transfer" their Varg MX order to a dealer so they didn't lose money at all.

IIRC they assign VIN when you pay in full? They also reserve some series for dealers and must have put aside some specifically for US shipments. Currently at US dealers there are VIN series with consecutive numbers in the 200, 500, 800 and 1000 range.

That's the thing, unfortunately their system is still not working and as a consequence it's a much safer bet to wait a bit and order from a dealer who has inventory than pay upfront 6 months in advance.

Thanks for your detailed answer. I would assume Enduro market is much larger than MX in turn much larger than supermoto. Would you have any ballpark figures for those? IIRC O'Neal CEO quoted about 80k annual MX sales worldwide.

After following Varg MX VINs for while, I think production VINs are chronological and sequential although that's not necessarily the case for deliveries (and shipments to US). VINs are not delivered in chronological order of their production, some ranges would have been kept for dealers, some...

Don't know about power but given the issues with deliveries and delays, if you have a dealer reasonably close to you I would consider buying a bike in inventory at the dealer.

In what must be the first GNCC race on the new Varg EX, Shane Pinney finished the 1.5h mudfest in the first 25% (71st overall).

Would that riding style be somewhat possible with an electric?

Looking good https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJRVdKHpnFa/?igsh=cTlza20xMjM1bmdk

No they can't wait for that, large shipment has probably arrived given the number of bikes at US dealers on Cycletrader and Motohunt.

At this link you can see the events covered (currently US and Canada only) https://www.starkracerewards.com/events For instance Maine motocross pays $300 for 1st in each of 13 classes (and goes down to 5th with a modest $30).
