    Some Stark Farkles with Steering Damper

    I'm curious if the carbon fiber would be able take the load of the steering damper. Carbon is strong (tensile strength), but not so tough (impact strenth). But heck, they make mountian bike wheels and frames out of the stuff (my specialized levo is CF), so maybe it will okay. I'm curious if...

    DMV sent me notification I need insurance on the SV, WTF???

    I haven't heard back from ekho yet. After thinking about it, I really should have liability incase I run over somebody and some greedy lawyer sues the crap out of me. I got a lot to loose. For $30 a year, I decided to just insure it. I'll post an updated of what becomes of ekho when I get an...

    I called ekhodealer and they agree the DMV is screwed up. They are looking into this for me. I'll update as I learn more.

    DMV sent me notification I need insurance on the SV, WTF???

    Going to the dmv to get this sorted. If I have to pay liability, then they need to give me a license plate.

    DMV sent me notification I need insurance on the SV, WTF???

    As the title says, DMV says it will pull my registration unless I get liability insurance. I’ve never heard of a dirt bike requiring liability insurance. I googled this and the internets say dirt bikes don’t require liability insurance. Anybody else get this notification in CA?

    Varg Phone is Garbage

    I'm finding my Stark and phone are like my work laptop. If shit doesn't work, reboot it.

    New UK owner road legal gen 2

    Just did this mod last night. Wow, that bracket is hard stuff to drill through. I tried tapping it with an M4 tap, but literally it was so hard that sparks shot out of the tap when trying to tap it. Must be a very hard stainless, like precipitation hardened stainless. So I went with a through...

    Stark Varg battery drained?

    BTW, I learned to totally shut down the bike to conserve battery during storage. Hole down both up and down buttons on the controller until the light flashes white. Did that a few weeks ago and the battery has not lost any charge while sitting idle. The phone however does drain. The phone...

    Varg suspension

    First time I rode the Stark, it was in the heat. The bike was really stiff. I barfed after the ride because it was so harsh. The next time I rode it, I backed out the clickers all the way, set the sag, and rode the same trails. Night and day difference. Once it started to break in after 3...

    Stark Varg foot or hand brake?

    I have the LHRB on my stark and love it. I jut added the nicecnc oversized rotor but haven't tried it out yet. If you are interested in that kit, be warned the nicecnc rotor bolt holes are just slightly off. It still bolts on but it's a little tight. I have gas bikes also, and an e-bike. So...

    Nice! Hope you get it resolved!!! I hope Stark remains on top of it for customer service and doesn’t turn into KTM.

    Did you try contacting stark futures? They have been pretty responsive to my questions.

    Rear hand brake - major fading, solution??

    I agree that if the screw head interferes with the c'bore such that more of the screw tightening torque goes to overcoming the head rubbing on the rotor c'bore friction, less torque will be applied to clamping the rotor to the hub. To your point, the screw would be "loose". I properly designed...

    Rear hand brake - major fading, solution??

    Did you brake rotor holes align with the rear hub tapped holes? Mine is slightly off, I posted a picture above where you can see the heads of the bolts are cocked to one side of the rotor c'bores.

    Rear hand brake - major fading, solution??

    I've contacted nicecnc about the issue. Problem is this kit was for a KTM, so maybe the stark varg bolt pattern is slightly different?
