    Sprocket Selection - Ludicrous? Maybe, but it's working for me. Custom foot pegs. Still want a clutch.

    On the Stark, I remember having pressed the power button while applying throttle to see what happened and the result was the bike going into neutral.

    General Electric Motorcycle Manufacturers Worldwide

    I wonder whether it wouldn't be better for some of those companies to try and merge to unite their resources instead of being alone: maybe they would somehow be stronger. I like that Alta's former CEO now works at Flux, for example. A thread about On Powersports has been created some days ago...

    Stark Varg Stolen 4-27-2025

    The bike can receive over the air updates and be locked and it can also send data to Stark Future so that they can analyze temperature, error codes, etcetera and this happens using 4G via cell towers, which means, I think, that it can be located using cell tower triangulation; the accuracy is...

    That's cool! Now, remember this thread? The bike was located also thanks to a picture provided by the victim of the theft: could you please share a picture of your bike? If you do, we can keep an eye on classifieds in Massachusetts and people who live there may even see it...

    Since the Varg app shows a green bluetooth logo when the phone is close enough to the bike and it vibrates when entering or exiting the bluetooth reception range, your phone can be utilized as a detector for your Varg. You could give it to the police together with its charging cable and if they...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA races

    Apparently the procedure is: • remove the fasteners, including the two rear skidplate bolts, • start to remove the battery within the limits of the slacks of the cables, • disconnect the cables, • vice versa to reinstall it. They have holes in the spoiler assembly so that they don't need to...

    Have you contacted Stark Future? In an interview, A. Wass said that when a Varg was stolen they deactivated it so that the thieves couldn't use it.

    Yamaha MT-09 PHEV prototype

    Here is a video of it; I've watched it with the automatically translated subtitles: @ 5:21 you can see it being recharged via a plug. According to what I've read on non official websites, it uses Yamaha's SPHEV Series-Parallel Hybrid Electric Vehicle technology. From the way it's described in...

    They have now released the official video and, if you pause it @ 5:50, for example, you can read a list of some features included in the standard package and others in the subscription package: I personally think that, if you like the Stark phone and if you can have a phone number for it...

    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    For the Italian market, the price of the 60 HP used to be 13k € when I bought it in the beginning of 2024, then 12k since some months ago and now 11k. My plan for this bike was and still is to keep it for years; if everything goes according to plan, when it will be time to sell it it will be...

    Might want to check your CAN bus connection

    In the battery description on their site they say that it's a patented dual action valve that releases air. And here, in the site of the US Patent & Trademark Office, you can read the patent: search for patent number 20230187768 (the direct link didn't work): I haven't devoted much time to...

    Here is my major rub with Stark.

    In the Stark Future website they are listed among the official dealers and from their YouTube channel, whose videos I've watched from time to time, they give me the vibe of cool people. Seems like they can be trusted! They also sell the motor case and the gasket between it and the inverter. I...

    X Games Bans Electric Motocross Bikes In Bid To Become Even Less Relevant

    Here is an attempt to go back to 450s. The conclusion is that in his opinion the Stark is more exciting, more performant and safer for jumping. I am a slow motocross rider and I agree.

    questions about 96v 450

    Some 450s have specific supermoto frames, for example TMs and old Italian Husqvarnas. TMs have been pretty successful in recent years in supermoto racing and usually those riders who use CRFs etc. for supermoto prefer the TMs when they try them. Probably the engine played a role in the...

    Might want to check your CAN bus connection

    Wow, I read in your signature that you used to work for Alta! Sorry if I didn't include you in the list of professionals who could answer that reliably; probably there are other users who are professionals too that I'm not aware about. Of course if someone who is not a professional has...

    Might want to check your CAN bus connection

    There is still not much information available about the internals of those batteies, so first of all don't tinker with them because you risk ending up electrocuted! Keep calm because worst case scenario it's better to lose 3K $, buy a new battery and maybe even end up hating EVs, selling the...

    Might want to check your CAN bus connection

    One solution could be to clean with contact cleaner or the purest isopropyl alcohol you can find, dry and add dielectric grease, provided Stark approves it. You should be careful, though: listen to what this girl says about sealed connectors because I think that's wise advice: Now, surely our...

    The FASTEST Car You CAN BUY! McMurtry Speirling Pure BREAKS RECORDS

    Enjoy! 🍿 You can also, somehow, try one yourself! I think I'll download it, I use Assetto Corsa sometimes! Just apparently according to the comments the suction is not really simulated: it just behaves like it had very sticky tyres. May look for another one, then.

    Supermoto on stock Stark Varg MX

    Did the bike show any tendency to slide because of the engine braking? I guess not, for these reasons: • It seems to me that, even when set at 100%, the engine braking of the Varg is not so much. • Something that should be kept in mind when using some kind of BigFoot setup is that the braking...
