    Issues with powertrain/ throttle cuts out when riding

    Just leaving this here in case someone else runs into the same issue and needs a solution. I ordered a bike directly from Stark in December 2024, and once I received it, I started having throttle issues. After just a few minutes of riding, the throttle would cut out, a solid red light would...

    Varg - Gear Oil Change

    I got the new bolt. I was concern since it was coming from the Stark US distribution in Texas and not from Spain so I was thinking it was going to be the old bolt design. So if you order from the stark site now you should get the new bolt design.

    Varg - Gear Oil Change

    Want to added my experience with the gear oil change to this thread. Did mine after 13h 23min, was having to much fun riding the bike and kept missing the opportunity to do the gear oil change. But was able to remove the drain bolt without stripping it. It’s definitely a tight fit and if the...

    >24 hours old and constant red light

    GOOD NEWS! Bike was working flawlessly today at the MX track. Was able to run the bike for multiple session of around 25-40min today. It seems that the CAN BUS rest is one last resort if you are having issues with the constant red light and the bike not getting out of neutral after a few...

    Any tricks to drain battery down for storage?

    Yes, I personally plan and doing no more than 24-35 hours of full charge or anything past 50%. If you plan on not riding it for more than that keep it at 50%. I personally am going to keep it at 40% to get the most out of the battery health wise. Typically in RC cars that I run you want to keep...

    >24 hours old and constant red light

    Yea, it’s been a troubleshooting process right out of the box. But I might of found a solution to the throttle issue from another user in another thread. I gave it a go and it seems to have cleared the issue. I rode the bike twice already and I was able to ride the bike around my neighborhood...

    Any tricks to drain battery down for storage?

    I would think the fastest and possibly the safest way is to turn on the bike and leave it in neutral. I saw a post of someone saying they left there bike on in neutral for an hour to do a firmware update and during that time the battery percentage dropped 11%. I would assume that Stark would...

    Firmware not updating

    I am able to mess with how much charge percentage I want the bike to have. When I put the bike to charge the screen that shows the charge rate and charge percentage sometimes doesn’t show the numbers. It either takes a min for it to show up or I have to go into the charge rate settings menu mess...

    Varg broken out of the box Red light constant

    Foss, Do you do this while the bike is completely shut down or while it’s in standby mode?

    Firmware not updating

    Yes I have. I have a 240v outlet that allows me to charge at the 3.3kw rate and I can adjust it to lower charging rate if I wanted to. Are you stuck charging at the full 3.3kw? Have you gone into the charge rate settings to adjust?

    Varg broken out of the box Red light constant

    Hey Robert Which restart procedures did you do to help with this problem? I’m also having this issue with constant red light and bike not wanting to get out of neutral.

    Rad! Glad to hear that this option worked out for you as well. Now I just need to figure out this throttle cut off issue as it still exists even with the firmware update. Thinking that it’s a heating issue or possibly something to do with the powertrain.

    >24 hours old and constant red light

    Running into the same issue as well. Bike runs, after a few mins of riding bike throttle cuts out even when it’s in a map, shut the bike off and power it on and the bike with have a solid red light and won’t get out of neutral. Seems to me that it’s an overheating issue. I will have to reach...

    Varg broken out of the box Red light constant

    I’m also having the same issue with the red light coming on once the bike powers on. But mine is a little different and I feel is a heating issue. And I also bought the bike from Starks website. The bike will fire up normally and I will be able to ride for a few minutes depending on how...

    Firmware not updating

    UPDATE!!! The bike just updated to the latest firmware of V1.0.159 I have the moonwalk setting and crawl mode! I'm going to go test the bike at the track on Friday to see if the throttle issue still occurs but at least now one of the two issues has now be resolved. The workaround I used was...

    Firmware not updating

    Not a bad idea, but I think that it should connect to a 4g signal if you live in a populated area. Maybe we need to unplug the VCU blow on the connections like if it was an old Nintendo game to see if that helps it connect. lol

    Firmware not updating

    This is good information to know and makes totally sense. I had a friend tell me that they knew someone with the same issue and that under the seat there was some kind of loose connectors. At this moment bringing it to a dealer is my only option to getting this this fixed. I know that there is...

    Firmware not updating

    I yet to try taking the bike to a different location to get a better 4g connection. The only two places the bike has been at is my place and the local track. But I would think that my place would have 4g connection. My best solution right now is taking it to a dealership that can have a further...
