Count me in as a brass inserts in plastics on a dirt bike hater. And I wouldn't be too concerned about a demo bike being raced, its common for dealerships to race their demo dirt bikes, its great exposure for the bikes. Dirt bikes are pretty abuse averse, especially an electric one. No fears...

Wow, that is huge! That will be some serious exposure for the e-minis and will open up a lot of minds. Good job KTM, now how about that full sized e-dirt bike?! I've got the cash here burning a hole in my pocket. Well, technically, not in my pocket, but sitting in my garage in the form of an...

Too quiet around here lately! Throw back pic, these two squidly youngsters were interested in my Alta, so I let them try it on our MX track. They both came back with that "Alta post first ride goofy face", prepared to hate it, loved it, brain not computing, Lol.

That was the impression that I got when I was looking into the E-XC recently, no changes to range or power for 2021. No 110V charger, no quick charger. It's too bad, a 110V charger would make it a lot more attractive to the N. American market. Quick charger would appeal to all markets. Add in...

I believe it was the 2019 model that got a larger capacity battery, a bit more range and power from what I recall. I wouldn't get one older then a 2019 if it was me, every mile of riding range counts when you're limited from the get go.

Yes, the small size of all of these bikes is really annoying to me. I guess not everyone is a 6'5" freak like me, so there is that. And agreed on the styling of the Cake bikes, or more accurately the design. The ridiculous square shapes of the components right behind the front wheel, all I can...

Also keep in mind not to over tighten the rim lock as over tightening it can deform it and it loses its gripping force. Its counter intuitive, but it makes sense if you think about it. I've heard "two finger tight", "snug", etc. Perhaps the rim lock mfrs have a torque spec for it, but I always...

Exactly. I'm spoiled with my Alta. I'd get a second one if they weren't so heavy. Lack of mfr support is also a major issue for me (although we've been fortunate self-supporting and having Liquid Performance for parts so far). I would like to one of these days, and of course if I do I will...

Agreed on all points. I'm very interested in the Ubco FRX1, but like many of the e-dirt bikes, it looks small. No quick charger either. I sent an email to Ubco US to see if I can get a test ride on one, hopefully I hear back from them and can get a ride on one. And the little that I know about...

Any idea what the improvements are? If the Freeride E had a charger that worked with 110V and was a full sized bike sized bike I'd be more interested. The lack of 110V charging limits charging opportunities in the US.

For spares for my '18 MXR, I purchased: rear fender rear side panels/number plates throttle I was considering buying a sub-frame, but am instead leaning towards installing a modded KTM sub-frame if I ever destroy my current sub-frame. Edit: I may have purchased the front shrouds too, can't...

Bingo. And that's funny. In our house, my wife doesn't want to hear anything about buying and selling bikes. Drives her crazy. Fine by me, Lol.

The GMX bike looks like a drawing, so vaporware at this point IMO.

What kind of crazy question is this? Of course you need 3, especially if one is an SM. Jeez, what is this world coming to? 2020, everyone's losing it, Lol.

Thanks. I've been following the Light Bee X thing for a while now, I'm considering getting one, but am torn. At 6'5" I think its just too small for me. I just emailed Ubco US to see if they are giving any test rides on their FRX1, supposed to be coming out in July 2021. They are down in...

If the bar mounts interfere with the speedo, just order the standard bar mounts, they fit no problem, have them on my MXR. You may need to do some bending/adjusting to get the bark busters to fit properly. Common to all bark busters, not just the Cycra Pro Bends. I've run Cycra Pro Bends for...

Perfect conditions! Good luck guys!

Finally, a use for all those useless treadmills gathering dust all over the world, Lol.

Thanks buddy, maybe next year. And in the meantime we still need to set a up some PacNW Alta/lecky bike rides one of these days. Looking forward to the updates.

Good luck this weekend boys! Keep us posted on how everything is going. I'm sure I'll be seeing dirt bikes and campers heading eastbound and down on I90 today and tomorrow, killing me, Lol.
