It appears that all price sensitive buyers here have already bought enough Altas for their current and next lives. But someone who always wanted one will scoop it up quickly, I am sure, as soon as they see it. @Christian -- why not you?

In Russia we used to race all year round. Only had breaks in spring and fall when it was too muddy. In winter you'd lower the bike, fill the forks and shocks with thin hydraulic fluid, install as soft and as wide tires as you can find, and that's it. No studs back then, they weren't allowed. It...

Damn, winter riding (at the end of this video) looks more fun that summer riding!

Someone in Canada has done ice racing on an Alta. Won the race too.

Awesome, @C5tor! Thank you for posting this. I have moved it to the Chargers sub-forum, stickied it, and added a link to it from the Videos as well. I am sure many new owners will find this extremely useful.

His spring looks a bit different, but here is mine: Fasst Company rear brake return spring on an Alta

The only ones that I saw up close were all plastic with a rough looking surface. My boots' hinges are already wearing through on the inside. I can't imagine using actual sandpaper near the boots or pants.

Yep. If you search for Sur Ron Owners Forum, the AOF comes up first already. I suppose we should officially welcome the Sur Ron guys here, especially since we have a few Sur Ron Owners here already.

Ouch! Are you sure?? This is sandpaper!

I like that they are promoting motocross and jumping. If the bike can jump and land well, then it will do well everywhere else too. Looks like we got ourselves a 125cc 2-stroke or maybe even a 250cc 4-stroke equivalent in this Storm Bee.

I measured as many dimensions as I could, and it appears to be an exact fit. I thought someone already recently confirmed this in the Plastic thread. The rear end on the Honda is good two inches wider than on the Alta. The Alta's side numbers do not have to clear the dual mufflers, only the...

I think the French bureaucrats are trying to pirate the Alta's revolutionary design. Refuse to give them the info, just say 'non' !!! :mad:

The suspension is out, ready to go back to the mothership. Removing the rear shock is lot of work on these newer bikes, I even had to watch a 10-minute long YouTube video! On my Alta the rear shock would have been out and already back in in less time than that. I must say that the quality of...

Liquid has new subframe liners. Hope if fits your subframe.

I've been told the Erzberg firmware has that already. You can download it together with MultiTool. Not sure if there are any tricks to installing it though, it's an older firmware.

An Alta Motors memorial service. The celebration of life of the maker of the best dirt bike ever made. The eulogy speech by @Judaslefourbe, where he not tells everything but accidentally spills the beans. Sign me up!

Here is my latest and greatest suspension story: My quest for a perfect Alta Redshift motocross suspension (Part2) Yep, that's the one. I have been talking non-stop about that bike. The one that got away! I should have bought it two years ago, but it probably would have been too expensive at...

This is the continuation of My quest for a perfect Alta Redshift motocross suspension (Part 1). A couple of years ago, I test rode a 2017 CRF450 that has a suspension revalved by a factory Showa tuner. I have been chasing the feeling of that suspension ever since. Today, I ended up buying this...

A couple of years ago, a local pro rider in Lake Havasu City let me ride his 2017 CRF450, while he was testing out my 2017 Alta MX. His Pro Circuit tuned engine sucked, but the suspension that was done by a factory Showa tuner was amazing, out of this world! After two years I still could not...

As stated before, a Non-Disclosure Agreement does not prevent anyone from seeking new employment and using their technical knowledge. I think it actually covers very little.
