What I think you are describing is the soft MX suspension that bottoms out on the faces of the jump. I have experienced that myself. You probably need stiffer springs but you definitely need more damping. Check out my MX suspension upgrade thread. You may want to do the same. If you can find...

@MVetter -- Getting an official approval from Alta would be awesome for your sales. But based on my experience, you may never get it, simply because we are asking Alta to endorse a product that they are not familiar with and have no control over. It might be easier to get a UL or CE approval...

Hi Morgan! Welcome to the Forum again. You have to add the cost of charging an Alta at home, which we here worked out to be $1.20 - 3.00 per full "tank". Probably on the low side of that, if you are not in Alaska. And you also should put a value on your own time. An opportunity cost. That time...

If we convince Morgan @MVetter to make those DigiNow chargers for us, they could be hooked up to any power source, I was told. I wonder if 12V would work as an input.

Map 1 feels good it you are riding slow tight sections. It may feel okay if you haven't warmed up yet and decide to go for a jump. You will only notice it on the face of the jump.

This sucks. I think the Alta is the safest bike ever for jumping. Can't hit a neutral, can't be in a wrong gear, and can correct the attitude in the air more widely. But hitting a jump in Map 1 or with a dying battery can send you a bit short. A lot short, if you are going for a backflip.

Webasto do not know anything yet, they just started talking to Whisper Power. They haven't even committed to being their dealer. Need to call someone else.

Yes, #metoo. Except I want to try 11 teeth.

Nice soundtrack!

I have had a 12-110V inverter in my van for a couple of years. It is a Traveller 3,000W Digital Power Inverter, sold at Tractor Supply for under $300. Initially I bought it to use an electric pressure washer at the track (still need to think up a water tank for it!). It is not a pure but a...

Cool! I am going to give my local dealer (Webasto) a call tomorrow and ask how much.

Welcome, Vagus! Your interesting question deserves its own special thread!

You said Fog is a faster rider, but he was riding at your pace. This means that he was most likely faster than you in the corners but was holding back on straightaways. Thus less braking and less accelerating, less power used.

There were three generators at the Alta demo day last Sunday. Two loud Generacs and one Yamaha EF6300iSDE. The Yamaha was so quiet that I could not hear it running when it was about 20 feet away from the other two. I did not get to hear it running alone though. But regardless, it was not small...

I was under impression that you had a big and loud generator that kept you from making any friends at the track, LOL! Glad you figured it out. Yes, please, share your sound isolation fixes and pitch this generator to us over the cheaper or the fancier ones. That Briggs and Stratton Q6500 is...

There was no page navigation at the top in the mobile view. I thought this would become an issue, and so it did. But I gave it another thought, googled, and fixed it. Before: After:

Really? EXes come without rim locks?
