    Varg rider considering YZ conversion for less weight

    Great pic! And nice setups, looks super fun. I'm guessing a KTM 500 road race bike (not supermoto) would be a rare site on the track. Thanks for posting.

    We need a pic of that 500 in road race trim, sounds fun.

    Varg rider considering YZ conversion for less weight

    It’s the rotating mass that makes the difference. Less of it on the smaller displacement bikes, more of it on the larger displacement bikes. I feel a big difference between a 125, 200, and a 300. So much so that I’ve never wanted a 300. Ridden all of them many times. Perhaps not everyone...

    Varg rider considering YZ conversion for less weight

    My '07 KTM 125 SX had surprisingly good power down low. I could putt around just above idle and then snap the throttle for acceleration or to hop a log, so much fun. Same for my Husky WR125 that I put a 165 kit on, both bikes single track slayers ha ha. Op, sorry for the thread jack!

    Varg rider considering YZ conversion for less weight

    Thanks, the HVR MX2 looks very interesting, around 218 lbs, $10,351 USD, I will check it out. Unfortunately it looks our current administration has imposed a 15-25% tariff on Germany to import to the USA, so that's a deal breaker right there. I might have to force myself to build one from a KTM...

    Varg rider considering YZ conversion for less weight

    I'm with you on the weight issue, my ideal tight single track/flowing trails dirt bike is around 200 lbs, up to about 240 max. I've owned everything from 125 2st motocross bikes, 250 2st, 350 4st, and even rode my old KTM 520 EXC in the gnar. Loved them all, but my favorites were the 125 2st's...

    I love this bike, but already have problems...

    They've been doing the bait and switch since they announced that they were taking pre-order NON-refundable deposits. They advertised the bike as 240 lbs, custom power maps, some other stuff that did not happen, I can't remember all the details. Bike is finally produced and being sold, its 265...

    Crashed bike and need help getting it out

    The heart rate monitor setup, lol! I've maxed out my heart rate a few times dragging my bikes back onto the trail on steep side hills by myself, just 10 feet or so! Nearly died, ha ha.

    Crashed bike and need help getting it out

    Removing the chain makes it much easier to push. I can't imagine trying to push/drag a Varg around in hilly woods for miles with the chain installed, insane. Not that it would be a picnic with the chain removed since it such a porker, but night and day easier then with the chain still installed.

    General Great leg sleeve for under knee braces

    After using the knee sleeve that came with my CTi brace for years (which worked fine), I tried the full length mx knee brace socks and really like them. Rocky Mountain ATV/MC Full Length Knee Brace Socks

    I did basically the same thing when I got my Alta, rode my very nicely setup Husky FE350 a few times after, felt like an agricultural tractor, lol.

    New App update and subscription option

    When the weight of the bike ballooned 20 lbs more then initially advertised when they finally released it I decided I was out. And I was worried about all the things that you mention (and more) and sure enough they have come true. What a cluster. For those that have not had problems and are...

    Might want to check your CAN bus connection

    If you're considering replacing that connector, keep in mind that the corrosion may have migrated into the wires under the insulation. You'll want to make sure you snip off any corroded wire sections. Of course confirm whether you have enough slack in the wires to do that before you do anything...

    Bonnell 40hp and 60hp dirt bikes and e-bikes

    I miss my 125's and my Husky that I put a 165 kit on. I've wanted a 150 for the longest time. I haven't been riding much lately but I'm planning on putting some trail miles on my Husky FE350 and if I'm not loving it I may sell it and get a 150. I've heard great things about the Beta 200 Racing...

    Bonnell 40hp and 60hp dirt bikes and e-bikes

    I don't get it either. The 3/4 - 7/8 size e-dirt bikes without a full sized offering is my biggest gripe with the whole industry. I think they are missing a significant portion of the market by not offering full sized bikes. And not saying 3/4 - 7/8 sized bikes are bad, on the contrary, they are...

    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    Great information, thank you. I stand corrected and deleted my erroneous posts regarding the size comparison of the 902.

    Melted UK charger plug

    Wow. That is scary. Glad it wasn't worse. I'd want to be certain of the cause of that and a proper fix before I used that charger again.

    Tarrifs...How will they affect Stark Varg EX pricing?

    More accurately: "Trump (and his Maga sycophants) is now threatening Canada and UE to not forge closer trade relations which is simply the consequence of Trump (and his Maga sycophants) own actions. Is Canada bullying the US, is Canada trying to tank US economy or is it the other way round...
