Guts now has 16 colors for that seat cover, LOL. They only had black and white when I was shopping, and the white didn't have good reviews.

Stark Future should integrate LitPro into their bikes! This would justify charging a monthly subscription.

An accurate lap timer would actually be very useful. In the days before LitPro, I had an AiM Solo display and data logger mounted below the handlebar pad on my CRF250. It was very helpful and motivating to see my lap times displayed instantly every lap. Watching my lap times in real time was way...

That's a $400 repair.

Ouch! Yikes. So painful to see. Glad no animals were hurt, or people. Whose bike is this? Yours is white, right?

They surely make it complicated. If your right brake lever doesn't fit your left brake lever upside down, then an aftermarket lever won't fit either.

Hmm... Maybe it is from the KTM Freeride E. I stand corrected! Stark Future website does not have a Brembo image, but I found this picture. I would try a clutch lever for it. It looks like a clutch lever. If the distance from the pivot to the pushrod is ~17mm, then I suspect Brembo-compatible...

They should have just given Alta Motors back to us. It would have been a better financial decision than losing money on these electric unicorns that nobody will buy or use. Some established auto and moto companies wanting to go electric are behaving like the airline industry in the 2000's. They...

Good news: There is no such thing as a "left-hand brake Brembo". They are all clutch master cylinders.

Two years ago, the lap was ~16 miles, I think ???. I got excited and killed my Alta's battery on my first lap out and had to be towed back to the paddock. Next laps, I babied the bike in Map 1, stopped using the brakes, and I was able to finish, but just barely with the battery flashing near...

I remember someone suggested that a good long-term storage method would be to remove the battery, put it in a plastic bag, and store it in a deep freezer. In theory, this sounds correct. However, I would be concerned about all the microchips and PCBs that may not be designed for below-freezing...

I have the Pirelli tires with barely any wear on them and one front original inner tube. However, shipping to the Netherlands will cost more than these parts are worth.

I would say the weight is the same. The Alta has a heavier front end, and the Varg has a heavier rear end. You can feel this difference when riding. Lifting the bike onto the bike stand is about the same. The Alta has a low ground clearance, so you have to lift it higher, but the Alta's rear...

More great info on the car and human limits...

Wow! Finally, someone made a (somewhat) production fan car! It has only been 54 years since the Chaparral Can-Am fan car (1970) and just 46 years since the Brabham F1 fan car (1978). It is really interesting to see what engineering decisions went into this. The car is electric, with adjustable...

The stock rear caliper fit and mounted perfectly. But the dual-piston front Brembo caliper did not fit on either my Stark or my Alta. It looks like there is a design flaw and the ears of the "stunt" bracket are about 1.0 mm too close to the face of the brake disk. I sent an email to NiceCNC...

I just discovered that I can use Alta rear wheels on my Varg by simply moving the Varg's rear wheel spacers onto them. WOW! :ricky: Even though the Alta uses a 20mm rear axle and the Varg used a 25mm axle, the rear wheels are interchangeable, and the only differences are the wheel spacers.

I am glad I fixed the ergonomics. I will bother with the numbers after I get the LHRB working. After that, we will have Round 2 of suspension tweaking. I ran scoop tires on my both Altas in Michigan. Loved them, it's like extra +5 horsepower on soft and loose surfaces! Here in Arizona they only...
