LS2 helmets are considered to be the the best value for money over here. These are solid helmets, although 1.6kg is definately on the heavy side. Actually, helmets (and boots) should be fitted before purchased. Glad to hear they can be returned. Knee braces vs knee guards is an ongoing debate...

Are you all using knee braces? I'm using simple knee guards, and not sure if the inconvenience of braces is worth it. For me, the Airoh Aviator helmet is by far the best purchase I made. Weighs only 1000 grams and very well ventilated. Fits like a glove.

I agree. Not sure this is the right bike for enduro racing. Even if it will make it, the range anxiety will get you first. This is a great bike for hard enduro (more popular in Europe) where the riding is slower and more technical, IMO.

Great report. I also think that going up to map 3 may solve that power problem you encountered. I would be careful with letting many riders test your bike. Insurance wise, and bike damage wise. In Israel, the state electricity voltage is 220v, so we're lucky 👍

Great photo, with the American flag and all!

You guys nailed it. Have a free half an hour? Just pop on the bike and head to the field behind your house, no matter what time it is. Only possible with electrics. We have few sand dunes around here. Not my favorite type of riding, but it is important to develop skills. The Redshift is great...

I know and I agree, but it made me think that minor injuries (mostly knees) and major injuries (mostly back) can be partially avoided with the correct protection gear.

I am really not proud about what I wore on that ride. It was already evening and did not have time to wrar the entire outfit and protection. Promised myself not to do that again even for lite off road. The combination of shorts, sneakers & knee guards really does look ridiculous...

Having some casual fun with the EX around town.

Just as a side note, I checked the max speed on my EX (13/53 gear ratio If I am not mistaken) - It is 70mph.

And than replace it with the fast charger? Good service..

Sounds good and I hope you are not disappointed with the range of the bike. I understand you have the quick charger? Any photos? Totally agree that the bike feels nimble and light. Only when picking it up, it reminds you of its weight. Today I rode on the rockiest terrain I have ever been on...

Where can a similar graphic kit same as your, can be purchased?

Philip, didn't you have one on your MX? If you did, than transfer it to the MXR (if you ask me, I would replace your MX plastics with the MXR as well. Looks great).

I actually use it quite often for getting to work and around town. Love it.

At last I found an advantage to the EX ☺️

Doesn't the MX model arrive stock with a skid plate?

Thrilled to hear. Congrat to both of you! Although, it's not as good as the EX, still a nice model 😉

I agree, but it seems like Alta are heavily oriented towards Motocross than enduro. The EX does not get nearly as much publicity as its Mx brothers.
