    Battery teardown, seeking help to reset the battery

    Yeah. Don almost lost his LHRB hand last year. He got a free ride to Las Vegas in an ambulance limo out of it with a motorcade escort behind it! Plus free weekend accommodations in the Las Vegas burn center.

    Portable battery power stations

    You need 7,000 Wh to fully charge the Varg. If you get 2,000 Wh, that will give you only 10 extra minutes at a motocross track. Or 30 extra minutes of trail riding.

    New EX died during my first ride outside of my neighborhood today.

    You may qualify for the trophy for the first production electeric bike that cut off unexpectedly! Luckily, this happened on a flat ground and not far away from your house. Alta Motors said they hurt a test rider or two when their early development bikes cut off in rhythm sections. This can...

    European/Australian generators

    In the USA, the default voltage is 110V. All the popular value priced generators used to be 110V. This is changing now, with some 220-240V compact generators becoming available. The selection and the prices are improving. Capitalism is working, at least it used to until the damned tariffs...

    Stark Files 004 - The one about AMA

    Key points of the video: 1) Stark wants to race in AMA Pro races. 2) Ben Cobb, Stark Future's PR Director, is married to Lisa Layland, MXGP TV Presenter. 3) Mike Burkeen, the AMA Director, is getting too many phone calls from electric haters. Dial Mike's phone at 555-....???? and leave him...

    Varg EX suspension identification

    I tried to summarise this, but this makes no sense. I wonder if the customer service rep had a copy-and-paste error? What are the letters for the EX shock, and why are they the same as the fork letters? The EX rear springs are so soft that their range doesn't even overlap with the MX springs...

    How To Identify Your Stark MX and Stark EX Suspension (springs)

    Stark MX FORKS To identify the forks, there is a letter on the left fork foot. E = 4.6 N/mm (65-75kg) - Soft F = 4.8 N/mm (75-85kg) - Medium G = 5.0 N/mm (85-100kg) - Hard Stark MX SHOCK To identify the shock, there is a letter on the bottom bracket. B = 54 N/mm (65-75kg) - Soft C = 56 N/mm...

    Jack hammer varg forks

    Thanks for the interesting tip! It is always nice to see various motocross engineering companies popping up! https://www.motoklik.com WHOA!!! The stock tires are feather-light, have very thin sidewalls, and almost no vertical stiffness without a high air pressure. You are probably riding on...

    Stark Varg EX in excessive heat.

    Nissan Leafs had no active battery cooling. They worked in Phoenix, and they were still sold there, but they didn't last very long. The actual driving ranges were dropping from 90 miles to below 44 miles on a full charge. In 2021, Nissan started asking buyers to sign a CYA disclaimer that their...

    Activating the Stark MX phone microphone; how?

    You should ask Stark for a new phone. They promised a fully-functional phone with the bike. Nobody else seem to have microphone problems. I am not aware of any microphone mute function on an Android. It is just your phone.

    Moving Varg charger to different case

    Northern Tool 16” Strongway case == Harbor Freight Apache 3800 case ;-) I really like your idea to move the charger to one side and create one large storage compartment for all the cables, adapters, and extension cords!

    Stark Varg EX in excessive heat.

    I have no idea what the deal is with brittle zip ties in Arizona! It is not just new or old, and it is not just one brand. And, everything we buy is made in China anyway. I had a box of zip ties for 20 years in Michigan and never had a single problem with them. In Arizona, those 20-year-old zip...

    graphics kits

    These are some Stark Varg graphics kits available on Amazon. I only wanted to buy the numbers, but I didn't like any of the number styles that they have, and I don't want to pay $170 just for the numbers. So, I am on the lookout as well.

    Moving Varg charger to different case

    Yes, you need to let the charger cool. Or you can cut holes in the Pelican case like this if you don't mind the dirt and the dust that will get in. I prefer Pelican cases because the two cables and their plugs can be quickly retrieved and then put back inside and remain clean and away from...

    Stark Varg EX in excessive heat.

    I run A/C in my AZ garage June through September. Keeps those cars and motorcycles with their plastic and rubber parts from falling apart. Zip ties last only a few months here in Arizona before they shatter like glass. I have never seen such brittle zip ties when I lived in Michigan.

    Emergency kit?

    I think the Varg has a riveted chain with no master link. I do not understand the reason for this. Master links do not fail unless the clip is installed backward. Chains do not break either. They only jump off sprockets if too worn and stretched. I would prefer to have a chain with a master...
