@Judaslefourbe , @Tuner -- Any insight as to why Altas tent to teeter-totter when skimming the whoops instead of flowing straight? I have experienced this on every Alta suspension that I owned, and I've also seen it when Josh Hill beat RC. I thought he was going to get stuck in those whoops.

Do you mean that the accelerating ICE flywheel creates a moment that loads up the rear end and calms it down, whereas an electric motor doesn't do that?

Could you please elaborate about this? I heard Derek say that the Redshift's suspension should be setup differently because of the different power delivery, but he never said how differently exactly and why. I have my guesses and theories, but I would like to hear the official version.

They definitely benchmarked an early MXR, including the defective rear shock!

Then yes. You will love it.

Definitely! What kind of riding do you do?

The stock WP pump works fine.

Call Warp 9 and ask for the front wheel bearings and seals.

Nice display guard! :cool:

I have had two MCR revalves over many years on my 1995 CR250. They worked very well for me. Last time I had to pick my own springs though because their recommendations were a bit soft. I must have become faster and heavier, LOL. Alta is weird though. It is much heavier than the KTM and has...

Oh, you should revalve your suspension then too. Especially if your shock's part number ends with a "1". KTM World and/or N2Dirt can do it very well.

I have a Fasst Company rear brake return spring, a DIY LHRB kit (there is a sticky thread in the Brakes/Tires sub-forum with part numbers). I also have an O-ring chain with a 45-tooth rear sprocket and the stock front, but you can go up to 14-tooth front to make Map 4 more usable. The shain is 2...

The plastics is sold periodically on this forum, usually in the Classifieds section, by owners who have stocked up but later decided to sell their bikes. I would call @AltaWest too, they might have what you need. What type of customization are you thinking about?

Yep! I got my first MXR from US-27 Motorsports a year ago tomorrow. Best bike ever, thank you! :ricky:

I wonder how true was the Alta's website claim that they have the "smallest and most energy dense pack in transportation". Alta Motors|Technology and Design Information After all, the pack was just 504 Panasonic cells that used mostly each other and the pack"s body as heat sinks and heat...

I would love be able to ride the entire TAT (Trans America Trail) on an electeic dirt bike like the Alta, from coast to coast.

Only the transcontinental Gold Wings and the noisy/vibrating Haleys would retain ICE.

Finally, we have our own lawyer, apparently. Thanks for joining.

From that article: "It is, they claim, the world’s first 1,000 Wh/kg (watt-hours per kilogram) rechargeable battery." The Alta' battery is about 200 Wh/kg. So, you could make an Alta battery that weighs the same but has a 5 times larger capacity and range, and maybe power. So if the stock Alta...

I think it was on Vimeo. Great footage and amazing narration. Alta Motors video
