Josh Hill is going to race a Varg in the FastCross event in Italy: As far as I've read, it's a race they used to have every year in the '80s and '90s up to the year 2000, when world-class riders competed. They restarted doing it in 2023, even though people say that now the level is not the same...

About time! I'm sick and tired of those things which sound like fast-forwarding VHS players!

I read that article when people started posting the link some time ago, but I didn't know that INR in the cell name means NMC (I'm still starting to learn about electric vehicles) and I just assumed it was a code specific for Molicel products. The reason for which I thought that the Varg has a...

I've read different ranges that people have got with the Varg and I think that a lot depends on the route, especially how twisty it is, the type of dirt and whether there are higher speed sections, so I think that there is not enough information to answer. I don't have a degree in anyhing but I...

Same for me; people usually talks about the way in which the Varg feels riding it, while in my opinion what changes the most is the ownership more than the use becuase of the less maintenance. I am a little confused because when you mention batteries sometimes I don't understand whether you are...

I haven't voted because I use it as intended but neither I would say that I like it, nor that I hate it: • at home, I like it because it's convenient but I wish it was shorter, • at the track, I dislike it; I wish it was possible to quickly slide the charger out of the stand with some latch...

Some days ago I removed the rocker arm and I did find a reverse thread nut. This nut has two threads: the inner one is a regular thread which mates to the shaft and the outer is a reversed thread which mates to the swingarm. At 25.5 hours, I found the bearings of the rocker arm having what I...

When I installed that update, at the beginning I noticed that the bike felt like in eco mode, too, so I checked the maps settings and I found out that, as I suspected, they were changed: every map was set to 40 HP and 70% regenerative braking. Have you checked that?

@blbills: have you taken those pictures before or after having regreased the bearings? They don't look packed with grease but neither they look so dry.

According to the FAQ pdf document from Stark's site, it's recommended when charging between motos to lower the temperature. I remember a member of this forum who rode at very high level, being a former professional, complaining about thermal limits due to overheating; surely he was an example of...

I tried a Talaria Sting TL4000 L1e on rental in a minicross track: the suspensions were way too stiff for my weight, so for someone lighter they should be even worse. The motor, on the other hand, felt decently powerful and it didn't consume the battery much in Sport mode, so for somone lighter...

I'm afraid nobody has experience with such a long period of unattended storage; I don't either, so the following are just assumptions and considerations. Probably asking Stark would be the best choice. It seems to me that in standby mode it goes from 50% to 30% in a couple of weeks linearly, I...

I agree; they also advertised the bike to be suitable for those people like me who are tired of playing the mechanic in order to be riders, so I feel disappointed to find out about this (although so far I still consider it way less time consuming than a gas bike, let's remember that). I guess...

So, have you removed the sprocket to remove the swingarm? DId you use an impact wrench? I have a handlebar operated rear brake and, when checking the torque of the front sprocket bolt, I can't reach 80 Nm, I reach less than 70, because I can't hold the countershaft still even if I hold the rear...

There is already one: Varg production numbers / VIN

If you search "Stark Varg" on the internet you will probably find only pictures of the Gen1; here are some pictures of Gen2: New charging point. Varg - Gear Oil Change

Another thing to consider is that the Stark is not as popular as I wish it was: at least here in northern Italy, where I also see a lot of riders from Germany, France, etc. at the track, after 25½ hours of riding I have never seen another Varg which was not a demo bike. I don't know what happens...

What size of hex is that? We only have the 13 mm and the 17 mm sizes included in the toolbox provided with the bike, so if it's not one of them (maybe the 13) we'll need to get a ¼" socket, too to use that torque wrench.

Are you talking about the reversed thread lock nut they show here? Have you used the bike in wet conditions like heavy rain or crossing some creeks?

Surely the rider is instrumental in winning a motocross race; someone says that in F1 and other motorsports it's the vehicle that matters the most and maybe that's true, but that principle doesn't hold good with MX. IMO discussing this topic of electric bikes to be allowed vs gas bikes is...
