    3D printed chainsaw mount

    I added several extra holes to move the guides around - so I'm sure it will fit but you may need to make custom guides If you know how far over they need to go, I can design the file for you

    Stark Varg Ex - wrap-around handguards

    I really like my Cycra hand guards. They were a tight fit, I had to grind just a little bit off the mount to get them to fit under the phone holder. However, I found that if you crash and the hand guard spins on the handlebar, it will hit the phone and bend it. So my solution was to get 20mm bar...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    Had to move the hedger up a bit, the bottom of the blades was hitting the axle housing when the forks compressed. But it actually worked out well, there is a spot for it to rest on the right guide and it secures well. However, once I got to a trail I wanted to do maintenance on, after about 20...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    Mounted the hedger and will try it out tomorrow. All I did was move the left guide over to the other holes and it fits pretty well. As for the hedger, I removed the guard and cut the handle in half. It is nice and solid. We'll see how it goes.

    Media Review Stark Varg SM vs. KTM 690 SMC R

    I have a 2019 690 SM - not much has changed since then. Great bike, but I don't think these are similar bikes, other than they both have dirt bike heritage and they both have street tires. The 690 is heavy, and although it is powerful for gas engines, it isn't very impressive compared to the...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    I bought some stretchy velcro straps, but found they were too stretchy. The saw was moving around too much. The way I have the mounts set up, it puts a angular load on it so you don't really want any flexing. Although you might break fewer straps that way

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    Had a great ride today, and surprisingly, ran into 3 downed trees - that is 5 trees total for the last 2 days of riding. That is way more than I usually see. One of those today was big. The chainsaw handled this one way better than the last big tree. Went through it like butter and the battery...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    Well, still having issues with the lower plate. The weird thing is, it works great without the lower plate, so I'm just going to post the files and I recommend just not using the lower plate. I will continue to tinker with it and I will update the files when I think it is working well enough...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    I had a long ride with the chainsaw yesterday, and unfortunately I broke the bottom plate in the first mile of the ride. It is just too much leverage on it, so I reprinted a new piece that is much shorter. I'm going riding today, so we'll see how that goes. I had my first big tree to deal with...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    I'll post the files tomorrow - probably with a lot of caveats. I just want to successfully make it through a single ride without anything breaking. I keep making tiny adjustments, trying to get everything to fit perfectly, which is annoying because the big pieces are time consuming. I have a...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    I guess I missed that. I'm afraid to ask, are they trying to outdo Musk's Cybertruck sledgehammer?

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    Finished printing the most recent setup, will definitely be using it Friday. I also bought the hedger. Sadly, it isn't a brushless motor, but I guess I can't complain too much, given the price. The hedger is only 6 pounds and change, so it is almost half the weight of the chainsaw, which is...

    Varg phone volume

    Interesting. I have not tried doing this, but if I had to guess, the Stark app uses the speaker for the horn, and probably other stuff - so I'm guessing it keeps resetting the volume to the default app setting.

    2025 KTM Freeride E

    What decade is the QS138 kit from? I'm not bitching too much, it was deeply discounted when I bought it. Even with the QS138 conversion, assuming I could sell at least the stock battery for half its value, I would be doing pretty good

    2025 KTM Freeride E

    I have a 2023 KTM Freeride and have been seriously thinking about throwing away the drivetrain and plugging in a QS138 kit in there. I love the way the bike rides, but it needs more power and range. It is pretty sad that buying the cheapest off the shelf Chinese components will make it a way...

    3D printed chainsaw mount

    I guess I just missed it, but Atlas also sells a 24 inch hedger, it is 40V, but the 80V batteries are interchangeable. That is exactly what I wanted, so I'll buy that and make some adapters for the chainsaw mount so that it is interchangeable. I spend so much time riding trails, I've been really...

    Some ICE riders really hate EV bikes

    The few Surron's I run into, tend to be younger riders and they literally worship the Stark Varg. I once came up on a group who were stopped and they all started chanting "Stark Varg! Stark Varg!" spontaneously. It was funny and a bit creepy. I always give a demonstration as I take off :) The...

    Stark co. - Suggestion box

    Most red lights last longer than the max setting, which is absurd. I would like to be able to set it to 10 minutes

    Stark co. - Suggestion box

    Throttle mapping needs to be adjustable. 80hp is completely useless with the current throttle mapping. People who paid extra for the Alpha mode should get their money back until they actually fix this.

    Some ICE riders really hate EV bikes

    I'm just curious if anyone else have had this kind of interaction. Perhaps it is different in other areas, but we don't have very many electric dirt bikes show up in my area. I have only seen 2 other Starks there and maybe 7 Surons. I saw one or two KTM Freerides. I feel most people are curious...
