The first Altas came out in 2016? I find it entirely believable that in every area of performance the Stark Varge in 2021 is an improvement over the Alta. I don’t know why that is so hard to believe, but apparently it is, Lol. But again, we will see. Meanwhile I’m enjoying the anticipation...

Josh Hill, top level pro mx/sx rider. Tortelli, world MX champion. They are both saying it handles as good as the current crop of 450 mx bikes and the weight is right there too. I don't know why you're so skeptical, do you really think Hill and Tortelli would risk their reputations by...

I think the handling improvements alone are going to be incredible. Josh Hill was talking about how well it handles and how its not front end heavy like the Alta. They modeled all of the modern MX bikes and built the bike close to those specs as opposed to the Alta which seems to have been built...

With Josh Hill and Sebastian Tortelli putting their reputations on the line with it, I'd say its a pretty good bet is a step up in all areas of performance then our beloved Altas. And Peronnard too. Some big well respected names in on this, bodes well. Plus by the time most of our delivery...

Alta manuals if you don't yet have them. And welcome, bunch of very helpful peeps here. 2017 & 2018-2019 Alta Redshift Owners Manual "Resources" part of the forum, very helpful to review: Resources

And don't forget 25 lb lighter and KYB suspension!

I know, 80 hp, whaaat?! Gear that thing down and get on down to Bonneville. And your nearest hillclimb competition. I did hear in one of the vids that the purpose of the high hp motor is not necessarily to have crazy amounts of hp/torque, but rather to allow the motor to run in its most...

My thoughts exactly. With having Tortelli onboard, Hill, and a few of the other players involved, these guys are the real deal. If anyone besides one of the major OEM's can pull this off, its these guys. Time will tell though, 2022 is going to be interesting! Ps: Did I mangle the grammar on...

What makes you think that?

Josh Hill mentions the factory guys can swap the battery out in "10-20 mins" around the 20:30 mark of this vid. Besides the expense of another battery pack with its spendy magnesium cover design, it doesn't sound like the battery pack is designed for an easy or quick swap. The rest of this...

It certainly would make sense that they would want to collect as much data as they can on everything they can, will help improve the product in the long term. And yes, the ability to sell the data (its randomized!) is a side benefit. Unfortunately, the data collection can come back to bite the...

That Swedish dude sure did have the Jobs vibe going, all turtle necky, hands bringing the ends of the fingers together (who talks like that? Lol), the accent. Sounds so high techie, so convincing. So brainwashy. And just a touch creepy. I do love the bike though, Lol.

That's all well and good, but it should be described up front that way. From the promo video it sounds like all of these killer features come standard on the bike. Perhaps I was not listening closely enough (which is annoying in itself that I have to listen like a lawyer to make sure I don't get...

"Premium" features. Pay to play subscription. Another bummer that is not clearly described in all the hype. I'm not a fan of subscription services, would prefer to pay one and done. From the order page under "Stark VARG display, phone & app"...

Well that completely sucks. Do you have a link to those statements? I couldn't find them on the Stark website. Sounds like the Tesla model, where not only are they collecting technical data on the state of the vehicle, but recording audio and video of the vehicle occupants, most who do not...

Disagree for motocross and SX, the electric dirt bike power is so easy to control, so precise, instant response, exact same response every time, so much torque. No jetting/power issues with humidity, temp, elevation, etc. I've never read or heard of Josh Hill or any other top MX/SX rider who has...

You should order the springs for your current weight, you want to be able to set the suspension sag to be set for your weight. Too light of springs and you won't be able to set proper sag. Control compression (firmness) and rebound with the clickers. KYB suspension is amazing right out of the...

25 lbs lighter then my MXR! Reportedly greater range. Fully programmable power, torque, regen. KYB suspension with option for rider weight springs! Ordered one yesterday. 18" rear wheel, 80 hp, LHRB, 210 lb spring rates. Can't wait to get it.

I'll be unwrapping my Ox LHRB for Christmas, looking forward to trying to trying it out on the MXR. I have a cobbled together LHRB on it now, retained the rear brake, but its not as firm at the lever as I would like. Hoping the Ox is better, I like the simple design. Let us know how you like...

Just say no to plastic subframes. no, No, NO!
