    General Suspension on the EX

    I weigh 72kg and wear 12kg of gear and have 1kg 'tank bag' on the bike totalling: 85kg. Getting the bike with the 'Soft' springs was a huge mistake and it was made by the dealer. He lied about it when challenged and had the Stark change the specification of the bike from 'Soft' to 'Medium' on...

    General Suspension on the EX

    @markanddona, I must thank you for bringing this up. I've been a fool to suffer and doubt the bike for almost 30h with the incorrect springs. I replaced the Stark "Soft" springs (4.6 / 54Nm although there are no markings on them) with the S-Tech 4.8Nm for the forks and 56Nm for the shock and...

    Subscription option in Europe

    Update on what happens with the Power Modes when the subscription expires: If the Advance mode is already selected it will remain there. If you switch to Standard mode it will lock out the Advanced, and only Standard modes will be available. I had to switch to Standard because of a bug in the...

    Media Review Varg EX [assorted reviews and random videos]

    That Christopher Nolan action thriller could have been an email. It's possible there is some actual truth in it. You mentioned in your thread that you had good support from a certain Benjamin. Well, if it is the same person I dealt with in May then it's a complete transformation, and that's the...

    New VARG Software Update.

    :eek: You're right. My mistake. I received it last night from our buddy Sam and assumed it was about the recent update. Does that also mean that FW1.6.0 IS the big update? I'm not noticing anything drastically different while riding.

    General mountain biking as a cross training for motocross

    Yes. Consistently lower on the EV, but that's not the whole story.

    General mountain biking as a cross training for motocross

    Short answer: No. How deep do you want to go with the long answer? Don't confuse skill and technique with physiological fitness. They are closely interwoven, but except at a very basic level you can't improve one by only stimulating the other. To put it differently, once your skill and fitness...

    Don's lightweight conversions

    Give us some numbers for context: Weight, power, price to build, price to buy, range etc. Forgive the dumb question, but why not use the entire space inside the frame?

    Solved HELP Power jerking after Drivetrain replacement (GEN2)

    If you believe you can make a strong case for a new bike than go straight to a higher instance. Some consumer protection agency. Even washing machines are covered by EU legislation. There's got to be something. Otherwise, you'll be relying on Stark goodwill, and they can reasonably claim that...

    Are you faster on the Varg

    Question is for those who measure lap times and have reference to or still ride petrol bikes: Are you faster on the Varg compared to a petrol bike? Share your impressions where and how you ride the Varg differently and whether that is an advantage or disadvantage for a fast lap. If you are a...

    Varg production numbers / VIN

    In that recent interview with the Stark's Italian CEO he said that the Varg EX was the most registered bike in Italy after Beta 300. He didn't give numbers and it should be noted that even if correct it only covers the period April-September since in Italy there were delays with registration...

    Subscription option in Europe

    Theoretically, if the phone is in the "Aeroplane" mode it should not know that your subscription is expired and keep the power modes as is. If it's really important then use the the alternative Svag app and phone. I've noticed sometimes while riding that the phone/app will be stuck in some...

    HVR MX2 99kg Fullsize MX and HVR 85Pro 85cc Size Bike from Germany

    Thanks for sharing your story. I really like the "High Voltage Racing" name but the "HVR" is a bit awkward. That goes for 4-5 languages I'm familiar with, including German. Of course, make a bike that is better than Stark Varg and it won't matter. ;)

    Power Modes: What do you use?

    All good questions and I could go for days talking on this subject, but sadly there seems to be little interest in general. My interpretation falls on two sides: Stark Factory: They are out of bandwidth in their attempt for world domination and new bike every six months. They don't feel the...

    Power Modes: What do you use?

    I have five days remaining of the free Pro subscription. I won't extended for now. May reconsider in the summer. I usually ride my training area trying to go as fast as I can using different modes. Regen adjustment plays a bigger role in my experience. Power adjustment only limits the output at...
