Some food for thought with the perspective of a young rider.

From a 4”x6” promo card. Sigh...

Interesting discussion. Several mentions of Alta and the quality of the motorcycles they produced (positive).

Pretty cool. Probably need 4 of them to be able to fully recharge an Alta but interesting nonetheless.

Admin edit: Order the display boards here. A few of us would like to order spare display boards while we still have a willing and able source for them. The vendor allegedly has right around 50 boards available, any future production is NOT guaranteed. The larger the order the better chance we...

Here are a few pictures from our first get together of the Northeast Alta Owners. @Matt was a very gracious host and offered his families beautiful New York property for the occasion. Fantastic secluded setting with a nice practice track to boot! Even some woods with a few single track trails...

Here’s an interesting build co-op with our own @ElectroBraap and @Mark911 converting a Honda Grom to Alta power. Awesome job guys! Can’t wait to see the end product!

For future reference, the exact replacement desiccant bags used in the bottom cover of our battery packs are available from McMaster-Carr under part number 2189K17 (5 pack). The bottom cover and retainer is designed for this specific size and it wouldn’t be a bad idea to put a new one in if you...

Here is some reference information for wheel bearing replacement. There was a previous discussion on the front bearings HERE. Several members have had what I would consider premature wheel bearing failures now, the causes are debatable, but this information should help for sourcing the...

It’s a long shot but I figured I’d ask. The mrs. needs her suspension set up and lowered for her small stature, but this is the absolute busiest time of the year to do so and we have a bunch of rides coming up we were hoping to not miss. @OneLapper hooked me up with a shock to use so I was...

Well... add me to the list of crazy people who bought another Alta. I picked up a 19 MXR for @mrs. snydes . She’s an experienced rider, just a bit vertically challenged at 5’1”. She normally rides a pair of CRF150RB's that I built for her, which are really ideally sized for her height, but she...

So I was on a riding trip last week with the Alta. I rode 3 days in a row, charging the Alta about twice a day. On day 3 I rode up to my charging spot (charging on 240), hooked up my charger like I did the last half dozen times, and hit the reset button on my GFCI and the light in the middle...

Hesse & Knipps BJ 920 Bondjet 920 Heavy Wire Bonder | eBay Allegedly this was the unit they started building batteries with. Any takers?

Ok guys, for the sake of this poll, and not to give away the specifics, lets just assume we have solid grounds as Alta owners to pursue a class action lawsuit. How many owners here would be interested in joining in? This is not to be considered a commitment, just putting feelers out.

Can someone with a kickstand bike post a picture of how the strap/catch or whatever it’s called is mounted? Thanks guys!

So by now most of us regular forum rats have heard of the dreaded "code 36" issue. Code 36 indicates a voltage imbalance which could happen for a whole host of reasons. When we are talking about the 2018 R packs the culprit will likely be a disconnected cell due to some issues they had in...

With what sounds like the final cleaning out of the Alta facility I wanted to make it known that if anyone has acquired any code 36 R packs and would like to sell it, please let me or @Bloak know. We would like to locate a pack that we could use to potentially repair both our code 36 packs...

I'm just curious how many owners would spring for a second battery pack if someone were to come forward and say they could produce a replacement. Lets assume the cost would be close to what an Alta pack would have cost ($3500) if someone would actually have been allowed to buy one. This is...

For those not familiar, there are a few groups being put together to be the first all electric teams to compete in some select 6 man, 6 bike endurance races coming up in this year. Our member @privateer703 took it upon himself to put together some team jerseys (see the Northeast Challenge...
