    About to pull the trigger need some advice

    The "pre-configured bikes shipped in 24h" are definitely already in the US (if you're on the US website of course). Right now "24h bikes" available in the US: 53, in Europe: 94, in Australia: 24. It changes on a daily basis. Can't say how long it would take to reach you (I'll guess 6-10 days?)...

    About to pull the trigger need some advice

    You seem very keen to get one 😁 For my money I would order my dream bike at my specs but obviously that's up to you. You seem more comfortable buying from the dealer, you should could check with him how long it would take him to get delivery from a bike made exactly to your specs (Stark...

    Stark actually profitable... kinda

    Yeah the production side of things is off the charts, Alta made about 1000 bikes in 3 years, Stark makes 1000 bikes every month.

    Stark actually profitable... kinda

    I'm very interested in the production side of things, I feel like one of their biggest achievements is their speed of scaling up production, that is terrific. I think they claim to make (not sell) 1000 bikes per month 😉 Any wild guess about how much profit would Honda make on a CRF450R? Or...

    Stark actually profitable... kinda

    I don't know anything in finance nor business, just doing some elementary school calculations here. Assuming all revenue comes from bike sales, 10.4 million euros would be 740-800 bikes sold in June, let's say 750. EBITDA of 210 000 € would be 280 € per bike, is a 2% margin realistic? The...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Eddie Karlsson won battle of vikings round 2 in 4h. For the geeks, check out this "factory battery swap" at the 1h15min mark. 2 mechanics plus the rider: 1.5 min to drop the battery, 2 min to put the new battery and get ready to go, total time 3.5 min. Extra time for half a banana and putting...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Overall disappointing results for Stark riders 1st round in France SX tour 2024. Team leaders Bogle in SX1 and Irsurti in SX2 failed to qualify. Wade brought home some points with 11th in SX2. Some hope for the Stark boys comes from Zaragoza who got a great start for his rookie campaign in SX...

    Update with reverse/crawl mode

    It's probably a leak, the video is ready but they're still testing before releasing that update. The amount of tunability of an electric bike is crazy, improving thermal stress, (moderately) extending range and adding reverse via a software update. And the "big one", with much of the vaunted...

    Update with reverse/crawl mode

    Sorry my screenshot skills aren't that great This looks like a real nice improvement, the kind of stuff only electric rides can offer, like adding reverse with a simple update, it's a brave new world. This vid states this incoming update is v1.0.150, what's the current software version?

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Looks like this weekend FIM explorer round has been quietly cancelled, as ever their communication is appalling, not sure what it means for the rest of the season. Anyway here are some nice close up shots of Honda CR-E prototype https://www.instagram.com/p/C8YUVm3SH5N/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

    3 issues with my Stark Varg in 1 week.

    Were they able to send you a brand new battery in under a week or is that the old one to be replaced?
