Thanks Theo and Al_V, good explanations (just Al you mistyped, 60 kW = 80 hp).

Good points but have you seen anyone damaging the battery from a fall? I've seen cracked cases but nothing on the battery.

This is how it's supposed to work Without access to the previous owner or the phone, you need Stark to help you. They will definitely need you to show solid proof of ownership and the VIN then I'm pretty confident they can program the phone that you will order to link to your Varg.

No phone... did anyone declare transfer of ownership to Stark? I guess you're probably gonna need that phone, or order one from them, a charger could come handy as well 😆

No, it's all perfectly legal, no shenanigans coming from Stark. A1 license allows to ride motorcycles up to 11 kW (15 hp) and 125cc. In some countries driver licence will automatically grant you A1 license (some require 1 day training). The thing is, this power limitation of 11 kW is...

It's getting serious, CEO of Yamaha Motors France steps down to become CEO of Electric Motion, they have projects for big bikes in off-road and MX, competition and production. https://moto-station.com/moto-verte/nouveautes-moto/electric-motion-monte-en-puissance-avec-yamaha/684275

80 hp (peak power) Varg EX legal to ride with A1 license (125cc license) in Europe, or even just driver license in some countries, all thanks to continuous power being rated at 9 kW (12 hp), that's the fastest 125 ever 🤣 I was more used to seeing continuous power to peak power ratio at 1:2 or...

Boys doing fine in FIM Superenduro. Karlsson got 3rd in superpole then 6th overall. That is while being limited to 48 hp and minimum weight of 123 kg (stock Varg EX is at 120 kg and obviously no such limitations for ICE). Not sure what happened to Taddy (DNF race 2, DNS race 3...)...

10-20 lbs compared to 450s wet weight https://dirtbikechannel.com/pages/bike-weight

Yes even 40 miles could be on the limit depending on terrain and rider, here's the range in Stark enduro vid Beginner got 50 km, 3h03 (average speed 16 km/h) Amateur 53 km, 2h19 (23 km/h) Pro (Taddy) 42 km, 1h18 (32 km/h) Ofc that was with he Varg, not Varg EX. Since they've posted full...

Well, Flux is developing a 85 hp 7.9 kWh dirt bike with swappable batteries and batteries that can be charged independently of the bike (otherwise swappable would be useless) so we may have real world data about that in a couple of years 😉

Nope, but it also took a while to see official confirmation they were using P45B. I am pretty confident they're using P50B because Stark have a partnership with Molicel, because these are the most advanced Molicel cells for this kind of applications and because P50B have been available for about...

Good catch, as I've posted in the previous page, for me one of the most impressive improvements is in cell capacity retention, 80% capacity after 750 cycles would be 1500 h (assuming 2 h enduro range).

For Europe if you order a Varg EX today and choose "pay now" estimated delivery is February 10th. If you just pay the 299 € pre-order fee, delivery date is May 19th. They are enticing customers to pay in full, it could also be a way to stock dealers first, which makes sense for a brand new...

It's a nice garage you have, cosy reading chair to learn more about farm animals while you're waiting for your Varg to charge. Plus everyone should have at least one dinosaur in his garage 😁

Yes it is. As you said, warranty starts at delivery, not at production date. To know production year of your bike you can check your VIN 10th digit: N is for 2022, P for 2023, R for 2024 (2023-2024 cutoff around 3000). They've had to build a factory from the ground up and build some limited...

Exactly, digits 1-3 World Manufacturer Identifier: UDU for Stark Future digits 4-8 Vehicle Descriptor Section: MX1AE, MX1A presumably stands for the Varg, digit 8 for motorisation, E for electric, this section would probably be different for Varg EX so I guess they would start serial numbers...

Just found a little more info on Electric Motion, they needed 10 years to start turning profit, have about 20 employees but they have worldwide sales, great success in trial competition... and last month Yamaha invested in them...
