I don't know if the SM isn't a competition bike though. There sure are plenty of competitions for it to race in. However building that somewhere under the seat shouldn't have been to hard. Nice thing would have been if it was placed under the seat, but could be removed for competition use. I'm...

Indeed the MX/Enduro bikes were selling in huge numbers with very healthy margins.

The weight gap is the 19' being seriously lighter than the 18' and not having lights etc. The rest is the same in weight.

Also they've made a lot more bikes now. Scale could fix the gap of the more expensive bits.

Also depending on the tyre size the 17' doesn't need to be much smaller diameter than the 18'.

In this picture you see a hook that hooks to the footpeg.

Also labour costs are highly overestimated on bikes like these. There is just very little labour done compared to the costs of the materials. I highly doubt there is a serious gap in labour cost between Spain and India per bike like this. I guess at the very inefficiënt way of handbuidling the...

That caliper is nothing near 300 euro for Stark. If you order 1 or 2 it will be. If you order in multitudes of 100's or even 1000's prices tend to drop hugely. Sure those are expensive buts you point out. But i don't think there is a way for them to cheap out on it in a big way at this point...

True, but still they're outselling the roadbikes from Zero big time. There is a catch though. Zero pretty much makes "budget bikes" for premium money. And there is a gap that Stark does seem to understand. People are willing to spend premium, but only on premium. And how much extra does it...

Just order an extra 18' wheel with the 1.2? They are not that expensive. But you could also order the EX with MX suspension if you want that. Just keep in mind the EX is streetlegal, the 1.2 isn't.

I think the savings mentioned are far less. The toolbox will maybe cost them a €100, the stand is needed for the charger, if not for the charger that stand is just a pressed sheet of metal with a rubber top, can't be much more expensive to produce then €15. Wich premium parts? Suspension? The...

You could also just opt for an extra wheel. You can just order that and they're not even that expensive.

Yes i expect it's the same, but i would love confirmation!

On track i've seen that, even with me as a beginner, it's bloody fast around the curves. Probably faster than any other SM, at the very least smoother. And don't forget. Those other bikes face the same weight penalty for the SM setup.

17' wheels are always way heavier. Way wider rims, and the flat part of the rims have to be way thicker because flat is weaker than bends. Tyres are also much wider and thicker. My 17' SM set is multiple kg's heavier than my MX/Enduro sets.

Then the stock plate will do just fine.

So far mine didn't. They are actually quite expensive. Those of Racetorx are just absurdly stupidly over the top expensive. For that kind of money for a sidestand bracket i would want to have that alchemist that made it out of stardust and grained unicorn horns to install it on my bike as well.

Probably yes, it's just 1000 times harder and a lott more work under very annoying angles.

Well i imagine it still is a Chinese phone so could be ''normal'' behavior for that type of phone. Still don't like the whole phone as a dashboard thing.

Not the 790/890/1390 the main part of the stock was build up from. Even at prices as low as the shipping costs for those big bikes the will be over the locals budgets. There is only one market for that without Euro5+ and that is the allready flooded US.
