The whole subframe design has had me stumped since I started looking into Altas, among a number of other design decisions (footpeg brackets, kickstand, weird “mud shelf” inner rear fender, etc), can’t understand why they didn’t go with the standard proven design. Once they had the bike/company...

I’ve been thinking about this since I bought my MXR. I’m thinking this will eventually have to happen if our batteries, motors, circuit boards, etc prove durable over the years (and I have no reason to believe they won’t be). I haven’t studied the structure of the bike yet, but I’m guessing...

Discovered the power wires to my Fast Charger were cut, once the wires were soldered back together again, the fan turned on immediately upon starting the charging sequence and stayed on for the short time that I tested it. Charger appears to be charging and functioning normally now. If the...

Definitely does. Sounds like a blast, thanks for sharing. And Privateer: Ouch. I hate when that happens, Lol.

Feel free to share pics/stories of recent rides you've done on your Altas in this thread if you like. Or any bike for that matter now that I think about it. Ok, technically, this was last Sunday, but went out for a quick late afternoon ride on my '18 MXR, my first time putting any real road...

Looking good man! And re not the fastest, I'm sure you know, the turtle approach can work in those 24 hr races. My 2nd (and last one), my team of knuckleheads won our class, 40 AM (which is usually packed with a bunch of very fast and well equipped teams) by simply continuing to plod on with...

I would pay more then I would like to for a set of plastics, Lol. Meanwhile, I'm going to remove my shrouds and number plates and put them away for safe keeping. For the rear fender, I'm thinking there must be an existing high volume rear fender that is "close enough" in fit to be able to be...

That's what I'm thinking, no sense in this combo. Unless you happen to have a decent shape KX65 laying around AND you're a very capable fabricator. Or you're good friends with one, Lol. Would be a fun project though.

Hey guys, I just rec'd a cleaner copy of the 2018 Starvation Ridge 24 Hour race results, see the attached pdf. It's very interesting, the first place team had laps times between 34 - 56 mins, with the rest of the teams being slower of course and having lap times all over the place. I'm seeing...

Unfortunately, been busy with other things lately, but scored a fast charger, got a new generator delivered, and installed an SXS skidplate. Hoping to get out on it this weekend, but will see.

The worst is when you can't ride your Alta so you come here for a fix and there are NO NEW posts that you're interested in! What The F people? Haven't been able to ride lately so am freaking out of course. Picked a couple of fights on line about electric bikes, but even that's unsatisfying, so...

I remember that and was going to comment. The lesson I took from it is that chassis & suspension tuning for optimum handling and performance is not always as simple as it might seem. Lower COG in general sounds like a good thing, in practice, may or may not be a benefit. These companies are...

Hey Mutt, I can help you post your pics on this thread if you like. Email them to me and I will post them up: woodsrider@gmail.com Send as many as you like, buyers usually like to see as much as they can, and some close ups of the wheels, hubs, sprockets, tires, battery, etc, never hurts. If...

Me and my MXR: Me when I've got the bike loaded and I'm pulling out of the driveway on the way to go riding. Full volume please, Lol: "It's going down!" Oh yes it is.

Thanks! And yes, I thought it was a pretty good deal so decided to jump on it instead of waiting for one of the Honda or Yamaha EU type generators to show up on CL at a price I could afford. Delivery is scheduled for the 17th, then I'm going to sound proof it ala' Mark911, and I'm considering...

You guys are killing me here, Lol. And I'm not as bad as I described above, but I'm not that far from it either. And yes, F-U Harley, and a double F-U to BRP.

Altaventions...my man, Altaventions. Here's me at my first meeting: Well, I used to be really bad at parties and bbq's, if I wasn't talking to somebody about dirt bikes I was really bored, just could not get into hearing about the new patio, or your kids latest great thing, or god forbid your...

Hi, my name is Ed and I'm an AOF addict...too, Lol.

Thank you!

Thanks! I just ordered one this morning at that sale price, down from #$1212, plus got another 10% off with an HD discount flyer thing. Yeah me!
