"new concept" Maybe but I am sure they had a very very good look around the Alta and yes copied much of it. I had the need to remove the battery from our freeride E-XC a while ago and noticed the frame design where the main steel frame meets the alloy side plates, had a little chuckle to...

Or just get 24 hardly any differance YAMAHA YZ450F / YZF450 2024 - IN STOCK - SAVE OVER 2400 - WHILE STOCKS LAST! | eBay UK Still a brand new proven bike.

Stark have sent me 3 new units under warranty each time with the promise there was a re design in the pipeline, then started saying you have to strip it down and clean it as part of the service, what use it that when it sticks in the middle of nowhere and leaves you stranded. I was shocked to...

26 is not available, september/october dealers are saying.

"I know for a fact Stark supplies their dealers with those parts so everything should be there to do a quick fault finding." That is what I thought and what stark seemed to imply but the dealer tells me the VCU they need to try has to be coded to my bike so over a week later it has now arrived...

It is not older it is the latest model available right now, the 1.2 is the latest stark. you work it out however you want but for me it is what is going out of my pocket that matters. Besides the official dealers are only allowed to advertise prices agreed with the importer but we all know speak...

Why would you want to buy a ktm? way overpriced, in the UK £8000 for a new YZ450f stark 1.2 is £10,490

Good to see a constructive post from you, some of yours do come across as a rant. To those that advise me to sell my bike and move on. No I bought the bike and it should be right or should be put right why should I lose a fortune selling it, We have a need for a full size electric (or electric...

We had the wires breaking on our E-XC around the headstock, even some that looked ok had broken the wire inside so we cut them all at the point they were breaking and added a few inches extra to give some slack. Soldered the joints and put heat shrink on seems ok now. Was the new loom a revised...

No the surron only has one charge speed as far as I know, the freeride has fast and slow mostly charge it on slow to hopefully give the battery less of a hard time.

"Stark's recommended solution is to put high strength thread locker (stud locker) on the inserts to see if that'll fix them" Shows how clueless they are, not a chance that will work I have the same problem. Most stopped using round inserts in favour of hexagon inserts many years ago, more poor...

"Ever try to get warranty service on any other brand motocross bike, let alone 2 full years of warranty?" I would be happy to go and buy a new Yamaha with no warranty because I have had quite a few and never had an issue that would come under warranty. My stark has been out of action for over...

Have you checked the plug in to the VCU ?

I have had this for most of the 19 months of MX ownership stark are clearly stalling in a big way, the way they see it is longer it takes to get fixed the longer before the next problem. Amazed they are still using the same design of actual buttons on the EX those have been an issue from the...

Someone was telling me about a video with some kind of frame ( maybe like the old ATK chain thing? ) they built that went on the stark to help it in whoops, it worked but anton wass said it looked a mess get it off. I thought this might be the video but clearly not.

That will be because all the EX's will have the gen 2 drive train which does not have those cables that the Gen 1 has.

Well we have had a surron lb for about 6 years, I have refused to buy ktm's for over 10 years but during covid all I could get was a freeride electric and had that for over 4 years then had the stark for 19 months but it has been out of action for about half that because of problems with it. Not...

Every chance you are correct we can all see what kind of business ktm are, could also be who ever makes the rules said they want to see a certain safety specification (no doubt there are many) that ktm did and stark did not do. One thing I do know it the best was to piss health and safety off...

Well I would think it is 95% starks not much else out there yet. When our bikes were designed and built as I understand it stark had very little/no communication with the FIM ACU AMA etc in fact there was a post on here that one of the top bods at the AMA said stark had had very little or no...
