Do you have a video about that to share? I tried listening to the noise of my Varg while spinning the rear wheel on the stand and it seems to me that most of the noise comes from the chain. Are you sure this is not your case? Is your chain tension correct?

As far as I've understood from this post, it happened to someone else, too! From my limited knowledge of electronics, it is possible that a faulty update leads the bike to do something which harms the battery, like for example managing the voltage or the state of charge of the cells in the wrong...

Well, after having read post #1 I didn't update the firmware to that version and surely I'm not going to do it now that I've read about your problem. Honestly my bike works properly and unless it becomes necessary for some reasons or they release a newer version, I think I shouldn't update...

So, has anyone tried the Varg updated to this firmware version? Any problems?

Well, I personally prefer precise specifications, too, but to me it sounds too demanding to expect that a company does something like washing a bike multiple times varying parameters like pressure and distance of the nozzle until damage occurs in order to create those specifications. I can't...

Actually the water pressure at a depth of 4.5 feet/1.3 m, which would be enough to submerge a Varg, would be only 0.13 atm/2 PSI and that would be the pressure at the lowest point of the bike; the electronics, placed higher, would be exposed to an even smaller pressure. Let's say that due to...

Some days ago I changed mine and I recorded a video of the oil being lifted by the gears. I was able to see the same thing turning the wheel by hand. I will remember this in case I will need a quick way to verify that the gearbox is not working dry.

That will surely work with an ICE bike with a carburator: I get that the clutch disengages the engine mechanically and, thanks to the kill switch, the spark plug won't ignite any more fuel. Maybe it would have worked with the sportsbike of my example but the rider panicked. On an electric bike...

Although I don't know much about electronics, I think that trying to hack the Varg would be a very bad idea and I will tell you why by reporting to you a story a marshall told me in a supermoto/sportbikes track: One day a customer of the track entered it riding his 1000cc sportsbike whose...

Some days ago I wrote, on this forum, that a power station would have been too expensive and that a generator would have been a more sesnsible choice instead, but I made a small mistake: I didn't check the typical efficiency of a generator. According to a quick search, it seems that, in order to...

As far as i know, top speed of vehicles is mainly affected by their power and by their aerodynamic drag. I think that a vehicle having comparable power and drag to the Varg is the Husky 701, which exceeds 190 indicated kph.

I suppose that they could technically make this happening creating such mode in the app. The only problem that I see is that, as far as I know, it's advisable not to keep electric devices under charge unattended because there is a significant risk of fire. Maybe this piece of advice doesn't hold...

In which mode do you store it? Why? Personally, up to some days ago I have kept it shutdown because: • I don't want thieves to notice a flashing red light in the darkness: there are some holes in the garage door, • I think that the flashing red light may accelerate the battery discharge a...

Sorry for your understandable disappointment. I've noticed that, if an update is available, it takes some minutes before you see it and also that, with the latest versions of the app, there is a popup on the phone for the update. Have you tried keeping the bike turned on, even with that steady...

3.5 kw or higher kw generators are also way cheaper, besides I've heard a lot of people using generators to power tyre warmers in parking lots of supermoto tracks and, with 4 strokes bikes hitting limiters in the background, you could barely hear them.

Non c'é di che! :) Yes, if indeed the OEM charger of the Varg is capable of 3.3 kw and that power station can deliver 3 kw + some contribution from the solar panels, it should charge the bike roughly at the maximum rate allowed from the OEM charger. At a certain point the owner of the bike sets...

Here is a video in Italian (the automatically traslated English subtitles look understandable) in which they describe the use a power station to chage a Varg: The interesting part starts @ 8:09. They say that that specific power station can produce 3,000 W and that the number can be increased a...

Since we have a 2 years warranty, I would first of all contact Stark. Anyhow, brake fading is supposedly caused by the fact that there is a significant amount of gas, instead of liquid only, in the brake system; this gas can either be air which has entered the system, for example during a fluid...

I've just noticed that in the FAQ pdf file downloadable from the Support section of the Stark website they have written that only the Stark phone can connect to the Varg. No wonder then that the app is locked to that phone model.

Can you please comment on the comparison between ICE bikes and the Varg when: - oversteering using the power of the motor/engine, - oversteering using the hand operated rear brake/foot operated one and the engine brake/regenerative brake?
