    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Thanks, I can well see the rear brake front lever and master cylinder, as usual. Not sure where I can see the second master cylinder next to the pedal but it must be there for sure. I haven't seen the 2 calipers?

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Found 2025 motocross technical regulations version 2 from May 2nd, no mention of electric bikes, no mention of mandatory rear brake pedal. https://www.fim-moto.com/en/documents/view/2025-2-motocross-technical-rules-02052025 So this was only introduced in the latest version, 3 from August 28th...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    I remember reading that FIM had either mandated rear foot brake or banned rear handbrake, it was something odd. Zaragoza appears to allude to something like that here He was obviously using left hand rear brake in South Africa, not sure if that was the case for all WSX races. It could be that...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    See previous page, for FIM WSX, electrics are surprisingly limited to 73 hp (54 kW) for SX1 and 60 hp (44 kW) for SX2. Presumably to take the extra weight into account. In all other championships, Starks are limited to 60 hp in SX1 (like when Hicks wins in AX UK) and 48 hp in SX2 (like when...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Also, it's on the rider doing the overtaking to make sure it's on the right side of "acceptable", wether you're on a gas or electric bike it's on you. Stark riders are acutely aware of this and so far, after 2 years of racing, they haven't been involved in more sketchy situations than their...

    AMA and Electric Motorcycles in AMA/FIM races

    Stark was racing 2 FIM championships last night. It was also Superenduro 1st round, in Poland Eddie Karlsson got his first FIM Superenduro podium with 4/4/3, right behind Billy Bolt and Jonny Walker (now on the Triumph 450).

    Varg Skugga - for the shadows

    Here it is, finally, onboard charger! JK but I'm pretty sure you can fit a couple of portable chargers in there 😆 https://www.linkedin.com/posts/stark-future_designed-for-todays-dynamic-city-environments-activity-7398767364227604480-7Px1

    The FiM has Neutered the Stark for WSX

    I had not checked that. It is indeed the fastest SX2 lap of the event but there had been a single lap faster than this and it's Anderson's second lap in SX1 race 3. Edit: Savatgy also narrowly beat that time in SX1 3rd race. Still pretty impressive. Track was absolutely the gnarliest of the...

    Stark Varg SM

    Increasing waiting time could just be a (good) sign that they sell faster that they can produce. Haven't seen anything indicating that SM deliveries to customers started yet, we'll see if they are on schedule before Christmas.

    Varg production numbers / VIN

    You mean most registered Enduro bike, right? That would be quite a feat. Registered bikes are usually public data, one way or another, it varies a bit between countries but the info comes from the state, not the manufacturers. I had expected Stark to at least celebrate some production or sales...

    Varg production numbers / VIN

    Thanks very much for that, I love to see real stats thanks to registrations! So in October Stark sold 52 Varg EX in Germany and 55 EX in France, total from both countries from the start of the year is 950+455=1405. That has to be a significant market share in enduro sales (and also both...

    The FiM has Neutered the Stark for WSX

    Yes he is AMA AX 2025 champion. The only problem I could see is if WSX expansion makes them start their season earlier, it could potentially clash with pro motocross. As of now, it does not.

    The FiM has Neutered the Stark for WSX

    Friese signed a contract with a private team for SMX. Stark is not allowed to race SMX. Friese still is an official rider for Stark and I don't think this SMX contract would prevent him to race WSX with Stark next year (obviously it doesn't prevent him to keep racing with Stark this year).

    The FiM has Neutered the Stark for WSX

    WSX round 3 SX2 :Hicks went 8/5/13 for 9th OA (in race 3 he was running 5th until the last lap in race 3, not sure what happened). Solid ride. Humphrey was a last minute addition to replace his injured teammate Kobusch, he's taking in the experience, results aren't great, 15/10/14 (DNF), 15th...

    Stark Battery Tech Thread

    And look at that, since Eddie was riding with 2 GPS and without the phone, they made him a color coded map switch to know his battery SOC 👍
