Agreed, not sure what makes it better for rescue then any other electric dirt bike. And it looks like another dirt bike designed and built by people that don't have an extensive history riding and wrenching on dirt bikes. Swingarm looks flimsy, especially with that rear tire, looks like a big...

I’ve literally never seen a realistic mileage range spec from an electric motorcycle or bicycle mfr ever. Tesla has the closest estimates to reality that I’ve seen, probably because the federal regulations on EPA mileage claims. I generally subtract 1/4 to 1/2 the stated range from all the...

Show of hands, who is skeptical about the mileage range? Me 🙋🏻‍♂️ Lol

Very impressive, nice work. Why did you go with all the KTM bits (wheels, WP suspension, KTM swingarm/linkage, etc) vs keeping the stock YZ bits?

Very cool. Its hard to tell, but it looks like the rear shock is oriented more vertically, or slightly forward vs being slanted backwards the way it appeared in prior photos/videos. Specs: Peak Motor Output: 22.5KW Max. Torque: 520Nm Top Speed: 68mph Range: 62 miles (@30mph) Battery Type...

That is great. Way to go guys!

Same. Besides the low profit margins mentioned above, think of the upheaval of the industry. Significantly less revenue for the dealers due to lower maintenance, way less maintenance item sales (air filters, filter treatments, gear oil, antifreeze, spark plugs, spare parts, etc). Less revenue...

I would imagine the sound coming from it could be easily modified, volume, track, turn it off, etc, or just disconnect the speakers if not. Depending on range, yes, an awesome Alta hauler.

Is that really the sound from the vehicle? Or is that audio added to the video? I hope it’s added to the video, that is horrendous Lol.

Chainsaws are not to be trifled with that is for sure. Each spring the nearest Forest Service office holds a chainsaw certification class. Classroom in the morning, out in the woods to be observed and graded while using your saw in the afternoon. If you pass you get a card for your wallet that...

Backpacks, that is a good point. Plenty of guys out here using backpacks, or rear cargo racks for their saws besides the fork mounts. The nice thing about the fork mounts are quick and easy access to the saw. Another consideration is top handle/climbing style or regular/longer handle style. I...

I'm no chainsaw expert, but most of the guys out here are using 14-20" saws, with most of them running 16 or 18" bars. The 20" is just too much saw to ride with for most, and the 12-14" saws take to long to nibble through the larger logs out here in the PacNW. I have a Stihl MS180 with a 16"...

There's a whole thread on saw mounts over on TT if you want some ideas: Pics of your fork mounted chainsaw carrier? Enduro Engineering also sells a mount, and there is a guy called Bill Dart that also sells them, although they look pretty easy to build if you have any fabrication skills.

I usually keep my MXR at 25 - 50% or so while it sits in the garage. I'll usually charge to 100% the night before I ride. I usually come home with 25 - 50% or so SOC and let it sit at that level until the evening before the next ride when I will charge it up to 100%. If I deplete it anywhere...

Fork mounted chainsaw mounts are standard fare up here in the PacNW. Every late spring into the summer an army of volunteers fan out like ants on speed in the mountains clearing trail. Often on multiuser trails. Pretty amazing what those peeps accomplish every year.

Just got my NMA (Northwest Motorcycling Association) 2021 calendar in the mail today and see an Alta is featured in December's photo. Very cool! If I had to guess, I would say that is Miller Peak, but it could be any number of incredible view points up here in the PacNW. Would be fun to know...

I would be tempted to try some 2 part epoxy on that area, being careful with the prep and curing (somewhere warm and dry). Then test ride it a few times and see how it goes. Maybe take it easy on the jumping and build up to your normal jumps carefully checking it as you go? If mine ever fails...

Hairspray + safety wire for me.

Road trip! Hit Moon Rocks outside of Reno on the way down. :) And good job getting out in the weather there Red, I can see lots of snow up in the mtns from our neighborhood, one of the kids is snowboarding up at Snoqualmie Pass today, conditions should be epic.

Very nice work, it looks killer and I don't know how anyone could keep their license with that, Lol. I can hardly control myself on the street with my MXR with 21/18 wheels and full knobbies, just too much fun to grip it and rip it and hoon out on the way to the grocery store.
