I stopped using ChatGPT because half the time I was instructing it not to sound like a desperate car salesman. :D It's interesting that it didn't take.

Highly recommended: Guarantee you won't miss anything.

First thing would be to carefully read what the extended warranty covers. I think there are certain situations where this arrangement may be welcomed by some. Maybe investing 1K into extended warranty raises the re-sale value by that much or more. It will certainly sell easier than an out...

What happens to the bike if the phone really gets damaged or lost during the ride? There are a lot of reports on Facebook groups complaining that phone or the software has: locked, limited, bricked and more or less blame anything on it. In many cases it reads like a user error, but they are...

This may be a step in the right direction: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/stark-future_starkfuture-electricmotocross-supercross-activity-7344005478659579905-JRwp In my opinion Stark didn't manage the SuperEnduro project very well. They needed someone who knows what makes the FIM wheels turn...

When I removed 30cc from the total 330cc out of Beta KYB fork it made it feel like riding in socks. I could feel every stone and no improvement in handling or the mythical plushness. Having to remove 150cc or nearly 50% of total indicates that there may be some other issue. I'd say the same...

Some KTM Rally riders use similar wedges on their bikes. They are quite large. I like your version. It would be nice if someone could make a 3D model for printing.

Nice track. In your experience, is the battery drain at all linear? I guess it can not strictly be so even in a static test. For example: can you expect to cover similar distance from 60% to 50% as from 30% to 20%?

Incredibly, 100% of all graphics that I've seen applied to the Varg looks horrible. It could be that the monochrome plastic without letters, numbers and racing stripes just looks better. It's also a nice contrast to other manufactures who over-do their graphics. Thick, transparent stickers...

Barman, a round of drinks for the data collectors over there in the corner. (y)👨‍🏫

Makes sense from the perspective of the factory, although it doesn't look to me like that is part of their business model. From the perspective of the user with expired warranty; the unfixability of key components and total lack of knowledge base on how to do it is rather uncomfortable.

Who will? I doubt any usable parts can cover the price of shipping from "Land of NOD" to the factory.

Wow. A 4.000$ assembly for a faulty bearing. Is your bike still under warranty?

How many miles / work hours? MX or EX?

There are these TPU tubes: front 80/100-21 motorcycle TPU tubes ultra light for trial,offroad | eBay I read mixed reports. Early versions had the problem with the valve stem ungluing, supposedly fixed later. Easier to carry as a spare in any case. Are Stark's red tubes available for order?

This is worth seeing, in spite the clickbait tittle. I have some prejudice considering the surrounding, but it would be interesting to know what caused it. [from a FB group] https://www.facebook.com/reel/1790549055196582

Fair enough. Although when I asked I was thinking in terms: ADV = 99% asphalt + 1% offroad. As for TET, I can tell you that you'd be properly buggered if you tried to ride that Himalayan on TET that passes through my village. ;) Also, easier to find gas than a supermarket that will let you use...

What is for you the appeal of an EV ADV bike? To put it differently, all the advantages of an EV off-road bike like no clutch and gearbox, rhrb, adjustable power etc. aren't so important on the ADV bike. Also, big ADV bikes seem so well developed that it's hard see how an EV can match them.

Not sure where else to post this so it may as well go here. Eddie Karlsson’s Factory Stark Varg EX – His Hard Enduro setup [40hp / 80 regen]

Around 60-70g depending on the type. My excuse for not balancing the wheels is that the wobble is a good reminder to keep the speed down on asphalt connecting sections. Nothing good happens on those.
