    Sprocket Selection - Ludicrous? Maybe, but it's working for me. Custom foot pegs. Still want a clutch.

    It must be doable to add a killswitch on the MX but I get your point that it should come standard. FYI here's a kill switch on the EX for the US market (I guess it must be a requirement for road homologation).

    General Electric Motorcycle Manufacturers Worldwide

    According to that, Stark would have already made more bikes than Alta, Brammo, HD/Livewire. They could soon annually make more bikes than Zero and Surron. I fear some numbers are way off, as ever with AI, like it says 1000 for BMW when they've been selling about 7000 of their €14k electric...

    Do our Vargs actually, "regen"?

    That's a crazy story, kudos to you 👏 So you own the bike, you can ride it, and you own the rights? I'm just a guy with an internet connection but I was so bummed when I saw Mission going down and couldn't believe that nothing would come out of this incredible motorcycle, that bike was so much...

    14 Stark dealers in CA, hopefully there's one not too far from your place so you can go see the bike and book a test ride. https://starkfuture.com/store

    Here it is, probably not Varg-beating but the more the merry 4.4 kWh, 43 hp, 120 kg, $8400. Add another $2k for "Factory Edition" with proper hardware (KYB, Nissin, Excel, DID, Renthal, Pirelli). https://onpowersports.com/2025-on-ozy-30x-electric-enduro-electric-dirtbike-e-enduro/

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    MX Elite France round 3 In race 1 Herbreteau held 6th for the most part of the race but with 3 laps to go he lost about 30s and 3 spots to finish 9th. Irsuti, 14th, similarly lost around 30s in the last 3 laps so this could well have been related to technical limitations of the bike (battery...

    New App update and subscription option

    Not sure I follow you. I don't like the SaaS model, paying to unlock extra features but what would be real bad would be Stark not offering this update with these new possibilities for the MX. When the update comes you'll just have more possibilities, unfortunately paying, similar to what EX...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    Stark is setting up some kind of international contingency program for amateurs https://www.instagram.com/p/DI4KuvLMso0/?igsh=MXJ2aHZqc3l5a2pvag== It's open in 12 countries but so far only events in the US have been added. Pays up to 3rd if there's a minimum of 5 finishers in a class mixing...

    New App update and subscription option

    It seems to me that it's only for EX for the moment. They have not confirmed it but no doubt in my mind it will come to the Varg MX (at least power curves and subscription, maybe not trails and maps). Locking the bike is standard, no subscription needed, glad they cleared that up.

    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    I don't know about overall manufacturing cost but clearly when OEM have a zillion different engines to make (and even engines with similar capacity could be physically different) and regularly update, electric motors would be much easier plus could pretty much be one size fits all (with...

    Aussie startup, launch and preorders opening on 29th April. Not much more to add to that, just that they intend to make an enduro, then MXer, then rallye then supermoto. Curious to know a bit more in the next few days. https://onpowersports.com/

    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    Cheers guys, glad that does not take any of your enjoyment away 👍 Incredibly that makes the Varg at the same price that the Japanese bikes, cheaper than euro bikes. Haven't seen updates for a while about their profitability but that'd be crazy if they can keep such low prices (even if only a...

    Varg MX 60 hp is now officially at $9 999 / €10 999 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DIwTcNRs8Vk/?igsh=Y2tteHh6eG85OGMz Cue some early adopters crying a bit, sorry folks, scaling up to reduce cost is not cheating you, retail prices going down is still something to celebrate. It's not great for...

    Varg production numbers / VIN

    April US VIN over 2000 doesn't really tell us how many they've sent overseas vs how many they've kept for Europe. Though that implies that they had built over 2000 EX bikes by March, and they've likely had sizeable pre orders. Can't wait for a "real road play bike" with onboard charger, this...

    Stark Varg EX range

    Shane did a first range test on a heavy track, calls it pretty much worse case scenario, in these conditions EX got about 10% more range than MX (26.6 vs 24 miles range extrapolated to 0, about an extra 10 min for this test, 1h42 vs 1h31).
