Good point. I forgot to mention that the guy who owns thi Rad Wagon was very excited about his bike and was offering free rides to anyone who wanted to try it. This thing is pretty cheap for an e-bike too at slightly over $1K.

This is an excellent point. Alta spent $70M to build 1000 bikes. These are $70,000 dollar bikes. No bike manufacturer has yet shown a serious intention to produce anything similar. Once they do, which can happen 5-10 years from now, the prices will probably be close to $15K per bike. The...

Just the headlights. Wrapping the whole van is possible but probably expensive and time consuming. A plain white van works for me just fine. Although I am planning to wrap the hood in white vinyl to minimize stone chips and add some thick black vinyl around the perimeter of the windshield to...

Tesla Powerwall

Just saw a gray Ford sedan that caught my attention. It had the most beautiful blue-green "eyes" that I have ever seen: I talked to the owner. He said it"s the Chameleon headlight tint that he bought on eBay. I think I am goin to try it on my motovan.

I considered the Powerwall for my van. Even put down a deposit. But the local distributor/installer refused to cooperate. Also, the wait was longer than 6 months. Else, I would have probably had a Powerwall in my van now. It could easily go flat on the floor under the motorcycles, or even under...

You are probably the first ever wishing Alta had put more Loctite onto all fasteners!

Would a regular sock work? :)

2017 & 2018-2019 Alta Redshift Owners Manual

It surely is picking up a bunch or random noises and static, even if you are standing still. It doesn't sound right. The old GoPros did not require any noise reducing gadgets. Although they used to come in clear protective cases (not sure how they could "hear" though the case, but they did)...

I do not understand what all the issues are with the length of the kickstand. If it is too long -- pull the plastic foot and cut the tube shorter. If it is too short -- pull the plastic foot and add a spacer under it.

Cool. I thought maybe you could relay to Sur-Ron that the bike needs more power and a brand-name suspension that comes on other motocross bikes.

I am back from the Overland Expo East. I spent two days there, it was enough to see everything twice and do some people watching -- checking out other people's camping and travel setup. As I expected -- no Subarus, very few Sprinters, one Ford Transit, no ProMasters. Lots of small Toyota...

This sounds like a very cool project. But last time I checked, Tesla was not happy about their power walls being installed into anything other than homes, so make sure not to tell them.

Sounds weird, but it totally makes sense. I am not a safety expert, so I am wondering if urinating onto the grounding rod with potent electrolyte solutions would make it work even better?

Thank you for the updates, @liuqiao. Do you happen to work for Sur-Ron? Or are you related to Sur-Ron in some other way? If your goal is to attract the US buyers like us, I think all of us should help.

It surely is a factory feature. RadWagon Electric Cargo Bike

I use a plenty of lube made out of reconstituted hand soap on both the rim and the tire prior to assembly. Else you'd have to pump up this SM tire above 80psi to seat the bead, whereas the tire says to never inflate it above 50psi. You can get a good deal on all kinds of Alta OEM tires and...
