I submit that a reasonable measurement, of how motorcycles/scooters are used in the world, is by time-in-seat each day/commute rather than miles driven by that user. I agree that rural areas, in any part of the world, would require longer range and higher speed commutes which may or may not work...

Sounds like you are coming at this from a USA perspective and not a global perspective where small motorcycles are the primary local transportation. Current electric motorcycle power and range are more than adequate to fill millions upon millions of the worlds motorcycle use cases. In north...

Sent: 05 December 2022 16:29 To: support@starkfuture.com Subject: Varg Premium subscription vs Free subscription Hi, In early release videos and interviews, Stark noted that there would be Premium Subscriptions and Free Subscriptions associated with the Varg and that the subscription level...

That is one way to look at it, however I already do consider that I'm saving on fuel, oil, engine maintenance, convenience, noise, etc. for my current non-ICE, battery electric powersports and tools: dirtbikes, eMTB, two lawn mowers, snowblower, chainsaw, trimmer and blower, and don't pay...

I emailed Stark about the Premium vs Free subscriptions today. I'll post up any response that I receive.

Interesting wording now on the Varg main page under the Technical Highlights section and expanding the "Stark Varg Display , Phone & App" section. Pasting below. The last paragraph mentions the subscription. So it seems that they are sticking pretty close to what they first announced. The...

Varg discussed this from the beginning. They will be offering a subscription for extended services, mainly around the features on the display/gauge. Owners will get certain permanent features and some will be unlocked with subscriptions. Things like Navigation, storing 100 modes, and certain...

Nah, no manufacture backdates a model year. The model year won't be the year a person pre-ordered it. It's the year of manufacturing (or the following year). All the powersports and vehicle manufacturers have always done it that way. If a model is delayed, the model year is determined and...

Why would you want to swap the battery while the bike is still powered on (hot swappable)? Ha. Just giving you a hard time. I know you mean "quick change" and not "hot swappable" which there is no reason for and would require two power sources. Unless... they could make an optional...

The EU has stringent rules and requirements for motocross bikes? Nothing like that in the USA, for motocross or enduro (non-street legal, race bikes), so hard to relate I guess. And only requirement for trail riding any dirtbike in forest sevice and BLM land is spark arrestor in the exhaust, so...

An additional 9 month delay itself, on top of the previous delays, doesn't bother me that much. Excited to get bikes, but another delay was expected. Only part that bugs me is in the video he states "a few months delay; Log in to see" and then I log in and it's 9 month delay. He set me up for...

First bike: Dec 14, 2021 order date. Original estimate: Sept 24, 2022. Updated/Current Estimate: Dec 24, 2022. Second Bike: Feb 08, 2022 order date. Original estimate: April 21, 2023. Current Estimate: April 21, 2023 (no change) I don't need or want my bike until June 2023, so I hedged my bets...

Gary, Does your description apply to Varg battery, Kart battery, or both (same tech)? Assuming the last, but wanted confirmation. Thanks.

Dash gauge is smartphone based. You can even add a card and activate and use as your phone. Assume it will have GPS, gyro etc. built in like all smartphones. Varg has said their will be all manner of ride statistics available including "air time", so probably some other neat stuff. We don't yet...

Interesting. They must have changed their tune as before they had mentioned transfers. If that is the case, then the two options are cancellation or purchase-and-sell.

Definitely. However, all reserved bikes will easily sell, be that to the original order placer, or to someone they transfer their order to, especially in a situation where their order price was $1,000 cheaper than current MSRP plus was placed a long time ago resulting in a much earlier build...

Exactly. Those of us that ordered a couple bikes, spread out over time so we could take delivery of whichever one worked best with our timeline, will be in good shape. I'll accept whichever one of mine works out the best timewise and sell the other one for whatever the current price is at the...

An order submitted today (June 04, 2022) has an estimated delivery date of August 15, 2023. You can go to the Stark futures website and click "Order Now" and it will list the current estimated delivery date before you even choose options. Choosing options does not change the estimated delivery...

That is correct. First class way for Stark to handle it. They must have learned a lesson from the poor way Rivian handled it. This notice gave eveyone a few days to get off the fence and order at the original price or choose to wait and pay the updated price at a later date. And, nice that all...

I tend to plan for multiple scenarios since "hope and wishes" have historically let me down. Ha. As mentioned previously, I have two bikes on order. One estimated delivery of 9/24/2022 and one estimated delivery of 04/21/2023. My intent is to own one bike and have it in possession by June 01...
