I'm 6'2" also! Love the position of the bars. Perfect for aggressive riding. Just need a bit more room for hand guards.

Yes, it is great tooling along on some lazy gravel roads. I don't consider that "off road", but I guess everyone can define that differently. Perhaps you shouldn't expect a top-rated race bike to be as comfortable and friendly in a street environment?

I installed some generic 20mm risers for the phone charger, to give more clearance for my hand guards, but you could raise the bars instead with them. There is definitely room for 20mm, possibly 30mm, as far as extra harness on the EX If you pulled the wires out of the handlebar, you could...

Unfortunately yes, that is normal. My solution was to stop signaling all together.

I also have a Zero FX and let me tell you, if you plan on doing off roading with it, you will have to do the chain conversion, and the EX is 90% quieter than the FX with a chain. It is physically painful to the ears to take a chained FX on the freeway. The belt is great if you never plan on...

I'm no trials rider, by any stretch, but I often use the slam your butt down on the back of the seat to get a sudden short moment of increased traction, which with an electric bike, allows for an insane burst of acceleration, where you can actually use that instantaneous torque to full effect...

The newest firmware patch email mentioned that one of the earliest receivers of the roll out were the more active riders, which made wonder what kind of miles/kms are people putting on their EX? I received the firmware update, but I don't know if that was "early" or not. I'm sure there are a...

I don't really understand the phone charging strategy, I have seen it at 1% more than a few times after leaving the bike charger on it all night. It seems to stop charging the phone after the battery gets to the set charging value, but it doesn't turn the display off, I think? I have also seen...

My butt is starting to get used to it. I went through the same thing when I first got my DRZ - after a couple months of raw butt cheeks, you eventually build up callouses. I have been riding 3 hours straight for two days on the weekends, and it doesn't really bother me anymore. I wouldn't want...

I didn't think to check that while putting a load on the individual circuits. I wonder if you can add a load to one or two of the circuits without disabling the integrated lights? I may eventually play with that, but my "solution" for additional lights for now was to get a wireless helmet brake...

This is why you need at least 3 bikes at all times.

It is a statistical formula that the manufacturer has calculated, and if you are the "average" rider, you are going to lose money. That doesn't mean it isn't worth while to you in particular, but you might want to keep that in mind when determining if it is more economic to buy it than not. If...

Well, just because I went through something similar, check the wire connectors at the phone charger. Since these connectors do not lock, they can slip down and have a crappy connection. Make sure they are all fully pushed in. I really don't like that about these connectors, they don't lock and...

I think extended warranties on vehicles always come down to how much you are going to use it. If you are barely using the vehicle, then of course you shouldn't be spending money on an extended warranty. But if you are going to be putting a whole bunch of miles and beating it offroad, then you...

Went to pick up the bike this morning. Still had the same problem. I found that one of the connectors had pulled out a little bit under the phone holder. I installed bar risers yesterday to raise the phone holder up a little bit, to make room for my hand guards. OK, now I feel dumb.

Anyone else get stranded today? Got an email while at work, saying Stark's cloud server was down causing the app to stop working. Didn't think much about it. I assumed that just meant the display wouldn't function. Got on the bike to head home and just had a solid red light, stuck in neutral...

I ride in the rain and wanted a high silica tread for that reason, which also tend to be really good dry pavement tires. I bought a set of Continental Trail Attack 3 tires and have been very happy with them, however I'm not sure they are making them anymore. They have been out of stock for a...

The point is, they can fix this glaring issue easily.

I have been charging my EX with my Anker F3800 for a couple weeks. It works great, but if you don't have an extended battery on, it won't fully charge. You get about 40-50% worth of charge, which is fine. The only problem I had was, sometimes, not always, if you plug in the charger without...

There are 4 wires. Black - ground Red - brake Green - running light Yellow - turn signal BTW, roughly 1/2 amp LED worked fine on the brake circuit. When I went to 1 amp, it initially blinked roughly 3 times per second. I tried merging both brake light circuits, thinking that would double the...
