    GM ends BrightDrop electric van production

    How did I not hear about this electric van before??! 😮 Apparently, the MSRP was about $66K, and it used to be possible to get the $7,500 consumer EV tax credit along with an up to $40,000 incentive for buyers of commercial vehicles. Was it possible to get one for $19K??? Anyway, this ended on...

    The Varg SM caster offset and trail is awesome (it must be!)

    Most SM bikes and almost all SM conversions ignore the poor caster trail outcome that happens after a 17" front wheel is installed on a front end that was originally designed for a 21" wheel. Not Stark! Cudos!

    General Mototec 72v 12000

    Thinking of buying a 3 kWh Chinese dirt bike for half the price of a Stark, or the same price as a used Alta, and hoping you'll like it? If you buy an unknown new bike only to learn than you don't like it, if can be an expensive used bike sale. Get a Surron if you want a fun toy, or get a...

    General Recommended earbuds for music while riding

    Sena, Cardo, and others make in-helmet speakers, if this is what you prefer. They are primarily used as an intercom though because if you use them for music then without the road noise isolation they would just be adding to the road noise and in order to hear the music clearly you would have to...

    General Recommended earbuds for music while riding

    Great question! I used to have these. They worked okay. I was able to put the helmet on, and they stayed in. But they were 10 years old and didn't hold a charge anymore. Samsung Galaxy Buds R170 I replaced them with Soundcore Liberty 4 Pro by Anker. I thought I would love them, as they are...

    Surron Ultra Bee Broken Frame and Swingarm

    Sorry, @Yz450f, it hurts to see bikes break like this. Whether the frames or swing arms are boxed or not boxed determines flex characteristics, not the maximum strength. You just need to make the aluminum thick enough. KTMs use die-cast open lattice, or open-grid, aluminum swing arms on their...

    Woods riding

    The trees are harder than they look. Even the thin ones don't feel so thin when you hit them.

    MXoN

    I have been watching all the weekend. It was great to see everyone pushing so hard, on and over the edge, making many mistakes, sometimes crashing, then getting up and pushing hard again. Both Lawrence brothers and Webster crashed multiple times and still won. Only Tomac didn't crash...

    Need Help - FarDriver Controller Cutting Out on Jumps

    Ouch! This must be some overcurrent protection. Scary! I remember @DonCox had that on landings, which is not as bad as on the face of the jump.

    Australian Championship shows why the AMA has banned Stark. It ain’t Safety.

    Keep it civil, guys. Be respectful. No taunting. No name-calling. I do not want to start locking threads and suspending anyone. Stay on-topic. Nobody wants to read your personal back-and-forth.

    Owner's Review long term stark

    I am going to have to sanitize this thread a little; my sincere apologies. This is very unfortunate because the worst posts made me laugh the most. Thanks for that! In the meantime, boys, go ahead and wash your mouths with some contact cleaner. This was the first flame war we had had in almost 7...

    MX / EX screws for spoiler

    Any shipping would cost you at least 10-15€, right? Try a local hardware store to save on shipping. Or order an Organic Cotton Hoodie from Stark for just $99 and get your 2 bolts shipped for free. Use Loctite on those bolts so you don't lose them.
