    New VARG Software Update.

    Same with mine, but since that's a feature I don't use anyway I've never cared. Mine was one of the early EXs and some of the later ones seem to have worked so it was possibly an issue of the early app versions writing some corrupted data? Michael

    New VARG Software Update.

    Yes, but the displayed actual charging current seems correct now. Michael

    New VARG Software Update.

    Basically I'd agree with you, but on this one it was showing 1.6.0 on the Arkenstone before the rainbow flashing - IMO the purple flashing prior to the manual update procedure was pointing to other components updates and the initial yellow flashing (without the rainbow flashing process) to the...

    New VARG Software Update.

    My bike wanted to update today as well - flashing yellow light! Since I had been pretty happy with my 1.5.0/2.7.1 combination my desire to change that was pretty low and so I decided to see what would happen if I ignored the update request. After turning it off (standby) and back on for 3 times...

    Any recommended Lock on grips for the Varg?

    Of course not! Just think of it - with the power of the Varg and no clutch the only thing from keeping you being catapulted into the next dimension is a properly working throttle. So the last thing Hirschmann or Stark will want you to do, is to tinker with the throttle. The Hirschmann throttle...

    Any recommended Lock on grips for the Varg?

    Stock spring position, high preload: Modified position, less preload: The aluminum lockring will secure the spring tab in place once installed. Michael

    Any recommended Lock on grips for the Varg?

    It was one of the first things I did to the Varg as I never rode with the stock grips - got some ODI universal lock ons. The housing screws on the Hirschmann throttle are pretty soft metal which is easy to drill. Instead of drilling out the head of the screws completely I used a 2mm drill bit to...

    Any recommended Lock on grips for the Varg?

    Got my Berm cam and basically it works as advertised which is awesome to have the ability to use full lock-on grips now. Nevertheless I had two (minor issues). The seat of the magnet in the Berm cam was very weak, coming loose with just moderate force. Not that it really can go anywhere, but it...

    E bikes in the Dakar Motion 1000 race

    I have now taken the Varg EX on two multi-day enduro trips which were a pretty good mix of everything including participating bikes and terrain. The point with the Varg is preparation and calculation which many just do not want to cope with on such trips. If the ICE bike run out of gas you have...

    New VARG Software Update.

    I remember one of the last updates were a guy from Finnland (I think) wrote about it something like 3 weeks before my bike would update. Like written somewhere above it would make sense to roll it out like that IF there was some kind of feedback from the early bikes - nevertheless since nobody...

    New VARG Software Update.

    So far we have two opinions on the changes (yours and mine) and they are basically the opposite of each other - nobody else on the 1.5.0 that would care to give an impression? I mean, I'm fine if you tell me I just imagined all of that as I like how my bike runs now, but it still puzzles me how...

    General Suspension on the EX

    S-Tech makes good stuff, I use their springs as well: Shock absorber spring 64/66-260, 56 N/mm, 98,00 € The sould ship to MNE, do they? Michael

    New VARG Software Update.

    Basically it would be nice to have a documentation of changes for the firmware, but at the same time it matters most how you personally feel it and not by what your are told it is supposed to feel. On the other hand the power of mind can be strong - may the force be with you :ricky: Michael

    General Suspension on the EX

    No, with "dual" I mean two adjustments (LSC, HSC) on one adjuster body vs the triple (LSC, HSC, LSR) KYB. The WP Traxx or now SuperTrax/Pro shocks double single adjusters are identical in function to the single dual adjusters of the stock WP shock. Confused now ;) Michael

    Looking for stock EX valving

    I only got to check out the fork as I decided I like the WP stuff better in terms of working on it so I made the switch. So here is the stock setup of my EX delivered in April, medium suspension (I assume the valving is identical with each of the setups, but I don't know for sure). (14) 30x.11...

    red battery warning light ??

    Has there actually been a MX reported with 1.5.0? My EX updated to 1.5.0 right from 1.2.8 so possibly MX is 1.4.x now and EX 1.5.x? Michael

    What kind of riding do you do? Michael

    General Suspension on the EX

    Well, the KTM/WP comp adjuster which I assume you have plenty of riding experience with didn't change (except for the valving) way longer than that. The KYB triple HSC adjuster is not all bad, it is actually a true high speed only adjuster while the WP and KYB dual adjusters influence much lower...

    New VARG Software Update.

    Yes, same here but at least they didn't touch the power modes this time. Michael
