    General Rawrr Mantis

    Last summer, while I was charging my Varg in between sessions in the parking lot of a track, I chatted a bit with a guy who was there with his son, who was riding a fuel injected 2 stroke KTM and he told me that there were some problems with updates of the ECU. I've also read, in some other...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    A certain amount of power applied over an hour is just a way of expressing an amount of energy but it doesn't mean that the equipment that delivers and uses that energy is able to do that so quickly. If you have an amount of energy of 7.2 kwh, then you can produce, for example, 7.2 kw for an...

    Brembo 10mm LHB - Flex lever

    I have always been having the Formula master cylinder, installed inward on the handlebar and used only with my index finger, pulling the lever at about 3/4 of its lenght. I am a slow motocross rider. I do train my index fingers a bit using grip strengthener in my routine. Here is my review: •...

    Stark weird noise and no crawl/ reverse... Drive train not reacting to throttle inputs

    I suggest that you make sure to know how to properly disconnect the battery power plug. Remembering that I am not a professional techincian, here is what I know: Since people with a gen 1 battery should use a conversion kit for the gen 2 motor, I suspect that the High Voltage InterLock...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    Same voltage, but not same power. 50 cells in parallel will produce 50 times more current than a single one, so in theory, given the same conditions like work duration and temperature, the maximum power that you can get from those cells should also be 50 times higher, since power depends on both...

    Outside warranty window

    Another thing that occurs to me is that Stark has stressed how they care about the environment multiple times and in multiple ways: according to the very first pages of the Varg manual, their main goal is to change the motorcycle industry by showing how it can be sustainable, the circle in the...

    Outside warranty window

    What you are talking about is basically planned obsolescence, which I believe is something real and implemented by many companies, even the reputable ones, but I think not by Stark, that I trust. Since our bikes are connected to the internet and can be remotely controlled and updated by Stark...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    Still assuming that the EX uses P50Bs, here are the datasheets of the two cell types: P50B P45B Some interesting improvements: • Maximum charge current before 70°C cutoff: from 13.5 A to 25 A: if there will be fast chargers, I guess the 50s should charge faster. • Minimum charging temperatures...

    Redline Arenacross in Florida (e-bikes) + John Hill on a Surron

    Well, there has been some excitement after all from the not so many spectators. I would still like to see world class riders racing electric MX bikes; surely there would be more excitement, unless the stupid hatred of some people wastes it. It also seems to me that the e-motorcycles race showed...

    New UK owner road legal gen 2

    Since it sounds like a semi-serious crash, make sure that the throttle doesn't stick: the throttle tube may have been pushed inwards and its end may be rubbing against the end of the handlebar. (y) I think it's basically impossible to have fun with a dirtbike without ending up on the ground...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    • The fact that it's rideable with an A1 licence in Europe is crazy! It means it can be ridden at 16 y.o.! Getting a driving licence in the EU - Your Europe • Here in Italy every year there are incentives for street legal EVs; I think that for that price the discount whould be 3.000 €. • The...

    What's everyone doing with the Stark charger/stand?

    Really Chaconne? That's what you say? Well, you won't get away with it: since you have written this and because of the fact that you are very suitable for the role, I will make you the protagonist of a joke. Take it with some irony and I bet you, too, will enjoy it :). This should end in...

    What's everyone doing with the Stark charger/stand?

    As a stand to charge the bike at home, I find it very good: when you want to charge, the charger is already down there and it's a stable stand. What I mean by this is the common old definition of stable: if you push the bike too much in one direction, it will tend to go back to center: If you...

    How Do You Plan To Survive (Battery) the Winter?

    Well, I don't think there will be any problems if you drain the coolant and leave the cooling system empty. Just put some label on the saddle or maybe a tag on the throttle so that you'll remember to fill the bike next spring. If there is no coolant when you turn on the bike I think that you...

    Is there a list of Error Codes anywhere out there?

    Personally I don't like the idea because compressed air pushes things into gaps. As I've written, I prefer to tilt the bike to both side so that the water will fall down and IMO if there is some specific spot that you want to dry it's better to suck the water with a syringe; it should work...

    How Do You Plan To Survive (Battery) the Winter?

    I know that this thread is about the battery and not the inverter and motor but I still think it's relevant: don't forget to make sure that the coolant used in the bike won't freeze at the temperature at which the bike will be stored.

    Anyone making stronger motor covers yet? Cracked my stock one

    It also looks black oxided and I'm afraid that such a surface treatment would be worn quickly even without accidents, because of the boot rubbing against the cover, especially if there is a foot operated rear brake.

    Is there a list of Error Codes anywhere out there?

    I've noticed that, too on the left side and I see that an effective way to improve the situation is to lean the bike to both sides after having washed it, so that it will drip with water faster and therefore dry faster. I also let it air dry but I use a cloth to speed up the drying process only...
