A lott of the startup issues/problems are documented very well in the manual. But not a single soul reads that so that doesn't count i guess? Don't get me wrong, i hate the wireless phone thing as well. I would pay extra for a hardwired dashboard that always keeps up with the bike. But as far...

That onboard charger would be what draws me over the line on the buy. In the Netherlands the ''extra'' (or actually same as ICE) tax has dropped so the price went from €15990 for a EX Alpha to €13990. IF that had an onboard charger it would replace my commuter bike as well. That would allow an...

The Stark runs fine with the phone turned off, completely destroyed or on the other side of the country. Seen all 3 of those. Did finish a training session with the phone still in the paddock. The lock your bike feature can only be used with the bike standing still. I would think Stark's remote...

This is really bad and undefendable. Bike should always work whatever happens. Although we do like Stark to lock it if a bike gets stolen. I think however that should always involve a manual input with a certain passkey of some sort so no mass stop can happen.

Yeah but the pro's can swap battery's in between 2 races. 99%+ of the amatures can't. But at least in the Dutch format it's plenty doable.

The local MX races here can be done with the Stark. Here the format often is: 85 (10-15 minutes) 125 (15-20) 250 (15-25) 500 (15-25) Repeat. It will do the range and in between your 2 sessions within either 250 or 500 (48 or 60hp) you can pretty easy charge the bike. The bike is the advertised...

I'm not a very good rider but do tend to jump each and every tabletop i can find. For that 40% regen is magic.

I just made it a habit. Mostly after 2 rides a lott of air comes out so i just do everytime.

Rather do it too often. Keeps the fork plush and the seals sealing.

I have those front sprockets in numbers from 12-15 since our Beta's use the same and we play with that a lott more. I think i will go up at least 1 or 2 for SM since it flattens out before the end of the straight.

But those guys can actually ride really really really fast. OEM's arn't stupid. So i always try to figure out why they did something before i change it. Too tall gearing on an ICE is often to meet regulations. But why would Stark gear too short?

If i wear down these tyres, wich will take ages since ever since i got them my SM track days have been made impossible by family/work/weather, i will go to 150 and 110. As of now it will do extreme lean angles that i will never get to with my experience or MX suspension.

In the rear it was a perfect fit though. Although i would have loved a 4.25 or 4.50 instead of 5.00. Anyways i would like a tad less wide tyres because it's all very tight.

Have you done all the updates? Especially on the early'er models we've seen quite the upgrades in range with some of the updates. Also makes for a smoother bike (hence using less power i suppose). I have found that regen braking makes little extra range in the sand. When using less regen it...

Same for me, i love 1 or 2 tooth less up front on ICE's. Smoother sure is always faster. That's why we saw a big update a few months into 2024. They actually reduces throttle response. That way people actually became faster and somehow real world testing (by me and local riders) pointed out...

I had to deliver the wheel without tyres and i mount them myself. I paid just under 700 euro for the SM set without tyres or rotors. Had to spend just under 300 euro in tyres (Contiattack SM 2) and the Stark rotors/sprocket fit. The wheels are basic quality as the wheel specialist put it. Not...

The thin rotor has nothing to do with it. In this case it should even help. For what it's worth i have the KTM rotor with it wich had the same problem. Furthermore i tried a KTM SM wheel and even that slid in fine. This was a production mishap on 24MX side, but since i can't send them a picture...

At those speeds i would say a bigger sprocket up front might would be beneficial. I do a lott of mud and rut riding and actually find it easy'er on the Stark than on my 300. Might be a personal thing though.

I did watch out for chargers along the Eastern TET (North-South) in France and found that there are not many, but they are there. If you're riding the same distance as with a conventional ADV and this is roughly within the 14.4-20kW specs you could do with one quick stop and overnight charging...

2mm out of centre does make it scrub the fork when going through the stroke with a 120 wide SM. Also with hard braking you can feel it pull to the side on tarmac. With a 90 MX wheel in the sand it's a bit different story. I paid someone to reallign the wheel so it's centre. I measuered...
