I plated my Alta MXR in WA State but it was already plated from Cali when I purchased it, so that made it easy. WA also has a pretty simple conversion process to plate just about any off-road bike. Throw some lights on it, pay $100 or so to get it inspected at any number of bike shops and you...

I haven't heard of a single instance where they've been welcomed. Lots of hostility towards them out there, even from the street & commuter bicycle crowd, many have a strange resentment towards them. Similar to the ICE motorcycle crowds hostility towards e-motorcycles. Very strange IMO.

Yes, these guys have been posting vids for years on TT, member Torturechambers, and now member hawaiidirtrider, they ride some insane terrain, this vid is actually one of their more mellow ones. :) And yes, the Sur Ron's are doing great, hawaiidirtrider said a bunch of them got Sur Ron's and...

Test plan: Stock Alta run up to top speed. Note top speed and local conditions (weather, wind, altitude, etc) for this run and all runs below. Stock Alta at sustained top speed run until charge is depleted. Note mileage. Taller gearing run to top speed. Any change? Taller gearing sustained top...

Saw that. At least its not called a Stinging Bee or something silly like that. But how hard would it have been to come up with an original name?

These hardcore Hawaii dudes are loving their Sur Ron's.

Yes, its documented there. Thanks for the heads up on that group, looks like a bunch of very knoweldgeable peeps, I just joined it.

Yes it is an awesome riding area but I think the Alta is not quite ready for mountain trails, range is too limited. I was hoping for 30-40 miles which I think could be made to work with some planning and thought. 25 miles doesn't allow for getting to the good stuff and back with a good safety...

Here's a little sampler from a ride I did yesterday out here in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State on what will likely be one of the last warm, sunny, snow free days up there. This was the first time I took the 2018 MXR up in the mountains, it did great. 26 miles and drained the battery...

Yes.

I would ride the wheels off of that thing, Lol. KTM, Husqy, Honda, c'mon, lets get with the e program!

That was my experience with the suspension on my '18 MXR, works fine stock for my type of single track riding. I'm a medium speed/skill set rider I would say. 210 lbs or so. And I was in the exact same boat as you, a test ride, waited a while, then decided to buy one, they went belly up the...

Liquid Performance has Alta plastics: Items for sale by liquid_performance | eBay I ordered an Alta seat from them recently, excellent service, seat was as advertised, quick delivery.

2018 MXR Vin: 381 Miles: 560 Hours: 39 Not a single issue with it, I love this bike.

This is a great idea, I've looked into this trip a number of times over the years but it always seems crazy expensive vs just hopping in your vehicle and bombing across country, or flying. I've never done any detailed estimates of the cost of the train vs driving/motel-ing, but the rough numbers...

Right on. And just to be clear I wasn’t trying to make fun of you for being courteous out on the race course, indicating that it is safe to pass is good racing especially if you’re not racing for the lead.

Be sure to report back on how you like the setup.

And I would LOVE to road trip back east for the 24 hr race. I will be monitoring things and if any of you knuckleheads actually do this, health allowing, I may join in, either as a driver/pit crew or even racing. I'm a mile from I90, can be on the way in 5 mins, Lol.

That is hilarious, dirt bike peeps are so courteous. Reminds me of one of these 24 hr races I was trundling along minding my own business in the middle of a beautiful day just loving life zipping across a wide field. I heard a big 4 stroke gaining on me so I held my line and was thinking there...

For testing purposes, am I missing something here, or could you not just swap out the entire front end including the triples? From my research here, it looks like the KTM triples bolt right on the Atla. The KTM triples are not as wide as the Alta triples (Altas were made wider to accommodate the...
