    Bought Alta kickstand

    My heart bleeds when I have too many beautiful and fully charged bikes sitting in the garage, and nobody rides them. That's bike cruelty, neglect and abuse. I'd rather give a bike away to a better home than have one sitting like that.

    Bought Alta kickstand

    LOL! I think three Altas is enough for me for now. I do not trail ride often, so two for MX and one for the street would be perfect. And I also want interchangeable suspensions and all other parts.

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

    Next time I have to push the Alta, I will be taking the chain off. It does not roll at all if you have to spin the motor too.

    Rim Shattered

    Blame the SM. I think the wider triple clamps spacing was done for the SM's wider 4-piston caliper. I like the appearance of the fork legs being farther apart. A thigh gap is fashionable now.

    Rim Shattered

    From what I know, the Alta's front hub also has the brake rotor 7mm farther out to the left than the KTM's front hub. So they are not directly interchangeable. Besides the 7mm wheel spacers you have to add a 7mm spacer under the brake rotor, or under the brake caliper.

    Singapore Motocross Round 1 on ALTA MXR

    Over time jumping the Alta starts to feel safer than jumping gas bikes. No chance of being in a wrong gear, hitting a neutral, or stalling the engine. Also, on the Alta you can pull the nose up with the throttle much more effectively than on gas bikes, preventing the endos that would have been...

    No Trip Meter? (A cell phone mount option)

    Maybe someone could write add-ons and updates and sell them to us? There are aftermarket seats, fenders, lights, why not the firmware? This is how most Mercedes/BMW/Audi/Porsche tuners earn their living -- flash in their own performance firmware into customer cars.

    No Trip Meter? (A cell phone mount option)

    Someone should make a cell phone holder to be placed over the standard screen. The standard screen is not very useful anyway. But with a cell phone you can find an app to track your trip, speed, display the map or directions, heart rate with a chest strap, or play music.

    Alta EXR Auxiliary 12v Power

    Looks like 40W is the maximum that you can get out of the stock accessory wiring. Alta MXR 2019 how to activate 12V electricity at the light aux conector behind the front number plate or find 12V output

    Racing the MXR in muddy conditions

    One more thing about pressure washing. If you have an O-ring chain, never blast at if from the top. This pushes the sand under the seals. With sand in it, this chain will stretch quicker than a non-O-ring chain. Pressure wash it only from the side. I am speaking from experience. Riding my old...

    No Trip Meter? (A cell phone mount option)

    No trip meter. You can use a Garmin GPS wrist watch. Pretend that you are going for a jog and turn it on. It will let you know where you are.
