    Varg EX has different sound to Varg MX. EX howls more and is significantly louder

    It's great for some gravel riding. Actually everything low pace relaxed riding that bike shines. Everything you would do with a CRF-L is it's comfort zone.

    Varg EX has different sound to Varg MX. EX howls more and is significantly louder

    Belt wouldn't work on a serious competition bike though. Especially one that snaps as easy as the DS/FX one. Landing a jump with a tad of throttle will do that. I went through a couple of them.

    The Myth of the Clutch, Destroyed

    I really like how nuanced he is regarding the bikes. Not being to judgemental and acknowledging it are different bikes that require different techniques. Even if he would have failed on the Stark it would have been a great and fair video i think. Watched all his comparisons (3 video's so far)...

    How long are we expecting the Stark battery to last (long term)

    Hmm that would be a tad long to wait for. I would love a long range version of the battery though. I could easily live with 10kg more. On the years old discussion on swappable battery we saw in this topic. My girlfriend and i can swap the battery in under 10 minutes and that's without drilling...

    How long are we expecting the Stark battery to last (long term)

    Since you guys were spot on last year about the p50 cell capacity increase to 7.2kW. Any news/speculations on new cells next year? The 7.2 would be nice. But still falls a bit short for me. Getting closer to 9-10kW would render my ICE obsolete.

    Stark actually profitable... kinda

    All sounds quite healthy and unexcessive.

    Pistons are easy but still cost money. Just the piston, sealings and coolant cost 200 euro.

    KTM wheel fitment

    "Those" is just me. And i do believe i have a builder problem, but that builder disagrees. This topic was a question to confirm that.

    ICE MX bikes can be very unpredictable. I've seen 2 stroke piston lives between 0,1 and 300 hours. Since i own the bike (november 2023) i've seen it become more reliable and predictable. The bikes in the first few months had all the weird and wonderful fails you expect of a new model. Looking...

    Stark range video(s)

    According to that website all of those OEM's are filthy lyers. Every brand is off since so many buyers specsheet warriors. Thus they weigh the bike at the bone minimum weight. Look for the lightest parts etc etc. The Japanese Allroad's are the worst there. Dry meant without tyres and battery...

    Stark range video(s)

    Oke yours weighs 124.2 kg. You said in another tread you placed other tubes before you weighted it. Just weigh those tubes and Stark ones. That 6.2kg might be very explainable. Mine is now also around 125kg. But i even placed handguards and a mousse in the rear because i like that better in...

    No dead battery failsafe's...

    Yeah the bike is going to stop anyways so it should stop right before battery damage is done. Once again, it might be it does now and that it was overlooked the first update. I work in a very established industry that never has to hurry and with very deep pockets... But still this kind of...

    No dead battery failsafe's...

    Agreed, even if the phone was just hardwired it would have been much better. No one i know ever uses the phone as a phone. Could very well have been a normal unit. Would have saved them 1 SIM card per bike as well. But well an existing phone is very cheap, cheaper then designing a dash so i get...

    Yeah i think they figured the calculus will fall into their favour. So that will be in that €750 vs €999 range and will help them. It also does buy some piece of mind. I would expect them to keep the same level of tech support, except that all parts (and dealership work) are paid for. I would...

    Just came across this post: What do you guys think? I'm not sure i will take it. It's a significant amount of money, but on the other hand it's 1/3rd of an MX battery or powertrain for 2 years extra. For Stark i think it's quite smart. - Revenue with minimal costs to them. - Showing trust...

    No dead battery failsafe's...

    I drained/killed my battery like that once. Had it on a centrestand and used the crawl mode to wash the rear wheel but forgot to turn it of (battery was allready at 6% after the racing day) Stark did admit it should protect itself and contacted the local dealer to give me the battery of a...

    No dead battery failsafe's...

    Indeed, but the only time it doesn't shut off is when you leave it in crawl mode. Or at least that was the case about half a year ago. Then it will stay in place and drain the battery to 0%.

    Stark Files 004 - The one about AMA

    Indeed the 250 4 strokes have become so powerfull that it pretty much allready reaches what a human can do. The suspension setup is more of a gap than how much power you've got.

    How To Identify Your Stark MX and Stark EX Suspension (springs)

    Is there any way to identify the springs themselves? I have multiple bikes with KYB forks. I would love to see what's in there but i fail to find markings.

    EX left me stranded today

    True, but if you put a lott of trouble shooting etc etc in your manual, but people are too lazy/stupid/arrogant to read it... How much more should you do? Those same people clog up their tech support wich in turn gets a bad name for long waiting times.
