    24 Hours of Starvation Ridge in WA -- October 26 & 27, 2019 (new dates)

    Hope you guys get yourselves a team. It was so much fun to race in an all-electric team in a 24-hour race! I wish I could drive over to WA and join you in October, but it is quite a hike from Michigan. Those who are unable to race should just come over to help and cheer. This is what I would...

    24 Hours of Starvation Ridge in WA -- October 26 & 27, 2019 (new dates)

    Definitely a helmet light. Contact @MrTaskRacing. Pretty much all teams at NE24hr Challenge ran his lights. I have come to a conclusion that for racing in the woods helmet lights are way more important than the bike light. They always shine exactly where you are looking. Get two helmet lights...

    Best Alta Generator

    I already have one, but is yours as small and as quiet as a Honda at 1/10 of the price?

    My Moto Van build thread

    Wow, it was only $159 when I bought it last year. But it was worth it, especially with my girlfriend not complaining about having no warm shower, just a pressure washer, LOL.

    My Moto Van build thread

    I actually had to use 25 gallons to wash one bike after the 24-hour race, LOL. No, I do not use the pressure washer for shower. For now, before I figure out something better, I use this: COSTWAY Tankless Water Heater and this: WolfWise Portable Pop Up Privacy Tent

    DIY Alta Kickstand

    Liquid Performance has all the major OEM Alta kickstand parts, but there are many tiny parts that may take a while to get located.

    Of course it will. If you have 240V you also have 120V. The fast charger uses no more than 4000W. You still have 2500W to warm the tires. It's more than 2 hair dryers of power, LOL!

    @Mat Rebeaud -- You should teach us to do sick whips! Actually, any whips would be good. I have been searching the internet for years but haven't found any real instruction on how to make a big whip and still land the bike on two wheels.

    Help me convert an MXR into an SMR -- Progress Thread

    Is anyone selling adapters from the WP AER fork to the SM's big Brembo caliper?

    EXR Tires and Tire Pressures

    This reminds me a long-running thread on AdvRider.com. It is dedicated solely to pictures of tipped over adventure motorcycles. I have my old KTM 1190R pictured on its side on a slope of a mountain. A tip over on a 700 lbs bike is a big event. Folks usually take a breather, wait for friends, and...

    EcoBikeAdv to open an e-bike/e-moto park in the sierras

    Cool! Too bad it is in the middle of nowhere. I hope the green people would start building these in LA and NYC. Maybe then there will be reasons not t move from metropolises into suburbia.

    Help me convert an MXR into an SMR -- Progress Thread

    I think I remember reading somewhere on this forum that the ACM checks the resistance on each accessory connector before sending 12V to it. If the resistance is correct, then it sends it. If no then no.

    Nope. I didn't touch the firmware on this bike. Try plugging in a small light bulb into it, it will probably work.

    Help me convert an MXR into an SMR -- Progress Thread

    I have the running light working! I didn't even have to install the extra harnesses. There is a small "AUX LIGHT" connector on the stock MXR main harness that plugs right into the headlight's running light. All I had to do is connect them together.

    Help me convert an MXR into an SMR -- Progress Thread

    I see, you used KTM wheels. I have Alta SM wheels. So I just had to re-use my MXR front wheel spacers. The MXR has a thinner front axle than the SM.

    Help me convert an MXR into an SMR -- Progress Thread

    I see you re-routed your stock MX/MXR front brake hose because you installed a big front brake disk. Makes sense. Why did you have to mess with wheel spacers? Not sure why the mapping would jump back to 1. Never heard of that. You have an interesting choice of tires. They look like dirt track...

    Help me convert an MXR into an SMR -- Progress Thread

    My guesses then are: #1 - Rear accessory harness #2 - The left handlebar switch #3 - ACM #4 - ACM #5 and #6 - The rear brake switch and the kickstand switch #7 - The front brake switch

    Makes sense! All the switches are probably low-voltage switches that alert the ACM. - The left handlebar switch - The front brake switch - The rear brake switch - The kickstand switch The ACM then decides who gets the 12V voltage.
