    Easy-to-follow battery charging protocol for weekend riding

    I would like to figure out a headache-free way to charge my bikes for the best battery longevity for when I ride just once a week. It has become very often around here that the local tracks are open only on weekends. The bikes sit in the garage 5-6 days straight, either almost empty or fully...

    Alta Representing in the 2021 NMA Calendar

    LOL! Good eye! I thought it was a winch with a tow hook.

    Check your rims!

    WOW! I really like hearing this! :ricky: This makes my electric bikes even more indestructible! Rims are the first thing to go when riding the rocky tracks and trails of Arizona.

    Check your rims!

    Wow! So, does it mean that we still have some kind of warranty on our Warp 9 wheels?

    Chains

    One important thing to remember with O-ring and X-ring chains is to never blast the rubber rings with a pressure washer. Once the sand gets under the rubber, it's game over. :muutt: I made that mistake with my KTM Adventure. After 5,000 highway miles, the chain stretched so long that the...

    Cost to recharge?

    It is true that most private homes in Germany do not have air conditioners?

    Cost to recharge?

    For $30 you can fully charge 3 or 4 Teslas.

    Cost to recharge?

    The 5.8 on the side of your battery is how many kWh your bike takes. Once you know that, and the rate per kWh, you multiply them. I am estimating it will be about $0.70 per charge.

    Sold MXR and EXR cheap (not mine)

    Wow! Is it a dealer? The site was saying private owner, but why would a private owner be selling two bikes with no miles???

    New Grips / Throttle Tube Location

    Yes, you can glue on the right grip without also gluing the throttle. I have two tricks: 1) I find a coin or a large washer that has appropriately the same diameter as the throttle tube OD. I attach it to the throttle tube with scotch tape. I also position the throttle so that it has a minimum...

    Fast charger on NEMA 10-50 plug?

    Your electrician might have to follow your local code and such, but the highest that the Alta charger can take is only 16 Amps.

    Aluminum lower battery cover! It's probably just white plastic, but I like to think that it is aluminum.

    Show me the pics of your most favorite bike!

    This must be from circa 2017 or even earlier. It says "TEST PILOT KRIS KEEFER" on the subframe. The shock and the 4CS fork tells me this is an MX. And no "A" or "R" on the battery means that this is an early prototype. Very interesting!

    Sold (Not mine) MXR on ebay

    Ha! Novi, MI. Very interesting. I think this guy may be related to an ex-Alta dealer in Novi. I wanted to bargain with that dealer in November 2018, right after the bankruptcy, but they insisted at selling at MSRP and told me "Are you aware that we one or the only two dealers in Michigan?"...
