    Stark going the way of Alta?

    I got to try an 80hp version of the stark over the weekend. To say the least, I was pretty astounded by the performance. That's not to say it won't have its detractors, just like Alta did back in their day, but this bike truly is a step in the right direction, in my opinion. Alta was never for...

    BREAKING NEWS: Amprius Creates a 500Wh/kg Battery

    Me too! Haha I got to ride a stark yesterday. It handles much lighter than my EXR but it sure isn't any lighter picking it up of the ground. 🫠

    BREAKING NEWS: Amprius Creates a 500Wh/kg Battery

    Yes, that was a typo. I guess I wasn't paying attention to the first digit in either instance.

    BREAKING NEWS: Amprius Creates a 500Wh/kg Battery

    That's the advertised weight for the EXR with blinkers, lights, harness, mirrors, etc. It's a brick, but I'm okay with it.

    Love to hear some hour/mileage updates!

    2019 EXR 150 and approximately 1600mi? I haven't really kept an eye on it to be honest. 3 major problems: 1. battery got moisture in it had the 035, 036, and 037 codes. Eventually I pulled the battery apart and found the 0 module corroded out. Eventually got ahold of a replacement 2. Inverter...

    Varg for Supermoto

    I agree with fedsem. Slippers are for eliminating or reducing wheel bounce on decel. You can adjust regen on the stark so you'll be able to tune to suit your needs. Rider weight will likely have an impact, so it would be helpful to experiment with it for a while. I have an EXR and rode it on the...

    Interest in AER Fork Wheel Spacers?

    Would you be able to confirm form/fit/function when you get them? Might be a good idea to test them first.

    Withdrawn 168V to 312V HK-J-H440-10 (110-440V) 10A TC OEM 3.3kW CAN Charger

    I would be interested in one of these if you guys can get it sorted out. I was kind of getting the scam radar pinging as well when I read the description (with no pictures). Kind of a bummer it's just the core, but if it'll eventually charge the Varg as well then that would be worth the investment

    Off-Road Range Guess?

    It's okay that you posted. This isn't a concept that is new. It comes up just about on a monthly basis with anything battery powered so it wasn't meant to be an offense. I'm just pretty realistic with expectations. Alta proved that the tech was viable, but you have to set your sights about 1/3...

    Off-Road Range Guess?

    I would say they can claim whatever they want. It's still a PR stunt until you get them into full, scaled production and end users give some feedback. They've been claiming double and triple capacity as long as I can remember, but it's all BS. Nobody can prove it beyond lab settings in very...

    At worst, it's a pretty good laugh I guess?

    General checking out used bike

    I would look at overall balance. Anything outside of 10mV difference is not going to be manageable by the BMS and will likely need extensive balancing or will throw 035 and 036 codes. There is another page on there that will show all the switch functions and what is functioning with green check...

    BREAKING NEWS: Amprius Creates a 500Wh/kg Battery

    Yep, snake oil and empty promises until it actually hits shelves. Now, I could believe realistically just above half of what they claim, so 900-1000 might be where you end up on the first few rounds. Maybe a couple years down the road you get 1100-1300. But it will still be a decade or more...

    Interest in AER Fork Wheel Spacers?

    Not in a rush, but if you can get the price belts $50 per set, then I'm sure you might get more interest. Usually just having them in hand would make it a better option for most people.

    Newbie need advice on a generator

    I Didn't know that was a possibility. Twice as fast would be great. I don't mind waiting for batteries, but 3+ hours is a bit of a problem. Especially in winter when I don't want to leave it fully charged overnight and it's too cold to charge in the morning until after ride time begins (9am).

    Newbie need advice on a generator

    Is there a way I can buy a fast charger for my Alta? I prefer going slow when possible, but there are some days when I'm really needing to get the battery topped off and the slow charger takes a long time to finish up. I know a lot of that is balancing issues which I'm working on, but once it's...

    Interest in AER Fork Wheel Spacers?

    It may be a bit of a stretch, but I could ask my machinist about making some copies. It's not like the GD&T is all that extensive. I'm sure anyone with a lathe could make them. It would just be easier to plunk down the cash to have them done and ready to go. I would be willing to buy 2 sets at...

    2k mile maintenance done.

    I just ordered a new set of sliders on Ebay. I bid on the lower one. The big one is like $50. I was getting some weird chain noise as well so I looked at the sliders and they were starting to get worn down pretty far. I might pick up a few sets, just in case. Thanks for bringing this stuff up!

    Interest in AER Fork Wheel Spacers?

    I would be interested, but I have an EXR. Not sure if they're the same. Also, I wouldn't mind having a set for the rear as well. I'm starting to get wear rings on both

    BRP Chain Guide

    I think my EXR might need a new chain guide soon. I don't know how long they're supposed to last, but I would rather have something to swap into if it were ever to get damaged. Thanks for sharing!
