    The low ground clearance also makes is harder to lift the bike onto standard bike stands. Not because the bike is heavy, but because you have to lift it higher.

    2019 / 2020 wish list

    Yep. I saw Ty slowed down to barely a walking pace over those huge rocks, probably because hitting the skid place was not helping in keeping the balance on the bike.

    Ty Tremaine and Lyndon Poskitt to race in the Erzberg Rodeo

    The whole experience and the story coverage were awesome. Just like in all other forms of racing, Alta showed a huge potential and many advantages over the gas competition. The architecture is solid. It can take anything you throw at it. The bike is fast and easier to ride. Once the battery...

    Ty Tremaine and Lyndon Poskitt to race in the Erzberg Rodeo

    The long 50-minute video? I embedded it for you. But it shows racing in the woods at the 8:15 mark, not talking.

    DEFECTIVE 4CS FORK!!!

    No, not possible. There is quite a clearance between the two. Also, the base valve shims would have been all over the place. Also, your rebound was unaffected. The base valve only controls compression. The only difference between the two legs of the 4CS fork is that one of the check valves...

    Re-springing a 2017 Alta Redshift MX (and then revalving too)

    Good catch! I must have forgotten to list them after I found them. I only bought eight extra 6 X 28 X .15 shims for both legs, whereas the specs call for 16 shims total.

    Best Alta Generator

    I just was at Costco the other day and saw this: A-IPower 1600W Running / 2000W Peak Yamaha Powered Gas Inverter Generator Too bad these generators cannot be easily converted to 240V, or synced in series. Also, too bad none of the Alta chargers can charge from 120V 30A.

    Do they make fat Nitro Mousse Bibs for the front Fatty tires?

    DEFECTIVE 4CS FORK!!!

    KTM and Husky had a recall on 4SC forks back in late 2015. Things were loose inside those forks. My 2015 Husky was not torqued tight either. The damping was crap, so I took it to a local tuner after riding it for 15 minutes and maxing out the clickers. A month later I got a recall notice in the...

    Handlebar bend

    What you probably need is a softer and wider seat, so that you can sit more forward.

    Handlebar bend

    The stock bars seem fine to me, but if someone wants to try taller bars for cheap, here are the bar risers you can try. You probably will want the KTM version, although most of them are probably interchangeable. Tusk Handlebar Risers

    Check Slavens Racing website and YouTube videos. That guy always seems to have a favorite front and rear tire for rocky and all other terrains.

    Oh yeah, the gearing, the sprockets and the chain... Prepare to get an O-ring or X-ring chain. The stock chain works for only 3 hours, then starts stretching like crazy. You will also enjoy a much quieter bike. The stock chain has 116 links. The stock sprockets are 12/53. If you are not a...

    I have Rekluse LHRB and clutches on all my dirt bikes. I feel naked without them.

    Balance, body position, throttle control and looking where you want to go are the keys to riding smooth and fast. The Redshift EXR lets you focus on just that without having to worry about modulating the clutch, stalling or being in the wrong gear. This is what Alta means when they say they’re...

    2019 / 2020 wish list

    Yep. Marc the honcho said that the forward rolling throttle can be programmed to activate the reverse. That's fine, but when in motion I would like it to increase the regen braking instead, so that I could brake slide and back it into flat turns like a supermoto pro!
