    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    I went and edited my comparison post, a few posts up, to add the 2025 KTM Freeride and Surron Storm. Freeride and Storm are sometimes referred to as "7/8 size". Seems like the 902 may roughly fall into that category and not be "creating a new category". Also added if the battery is removeable...

    2025 Stark Varg rumors, changes, etc.

    I'll let the number speak for themselves, but in the video, Bonell claims the 805 is "ultrabee sized" and the 902 was sized at "a new category in the market. It's not quite a fullsized bike yet it's much larger and more capable than an Ultra bee sized bike". Not adding seat height because Bonell...

    EX Android app

    So is that hp setting/adjustment chart based on, and only showing, hp at a given rpm at WOT? Setting hp by rpm seems like it will not get us where we want since we want a pop whether we are at 1,000, 3,000 or 5,000rpm, but changing hp will impact the ridability elsewhere. Seems we are missing...

    EX Android app

    So is Power Mode (the adjustable part) is going to be subscription only? That sucks. I'll never pay a subscription for anything on a powersports or vehicle even though I was looking forward to that feature. Guess I'll just stick with setting horsepower and live with whatever the power curves are...

    Varg comfort seat options for trail riding

    Is your Renazco Racing a comfort seat? Meaning wider seating surface with different foam density? Or effectively just a "gripper cover" replacement? If a comfort seat, what are the specs compared to stock seat dimension and foam density?

    Varg charging from generator.

    I edited my above post because I saw the Predator 6500 has a 240v outlet. "Best" depends on your priorities. Quiet, great quality, last forever, 240v are much more expensive than Econo 240v generators which are heavy and loud, but cheap. Some prefer battery/inverters or power stations (I'm one...

    Varg charging from generator.

    Typically there are no small/light/economical generators that are 240v in the USA. 240v generators are heavy and expensive (compared to 120v generators) because they are sized for typical large capacity 240v loads. The 3,300watt 240v draw of our Varg chargers is quite a small load for a 240v...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    That is the same with any, and all, retail products globally. Manufacturers will cost cut as much, and charge as much, as the market will bear. That is why I said "within reason" regarding paying more for an eDirtbike vs ICE. I have my personal threshold on the difference I'm willing to pay as...

    Rox Handlebar Risers - Cable Length Issues?

    Haven't thought this completely through with the Varg, but one option that might mean less impact to wire harness/cradle/extensions is going with handlebars with a lot of built in rise, rather than adding risers that push up everything. 2" rise is fairly easy to come by, but 5" is a lot. Some of...

    Stark varg support is the worst

    Nothing is wrong with pulling things apart and replacing faulty part of rebuilding. No one is arguing that. If they would rather replace entire units under warranty, that is fine by me, but at some point, when bikes age out of warranty (which none have yet), I would hope they offer more parts...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    Sometimes there are discussions on making up the price difference between electric and ICE. What about those that don't really care about the price difference (at least within reason) and just want one? Yes there is a price difference, but it's not that much in the big picture of life. A bit of...

    Charging - 220 vs 110

    Sounds like the info I received from my dealership was suspect (that the bikes they received didn't include the adapters). Ah well. They gave me such a huge discount on the bike and swapping on the tubes/tires I wanted, that the $30 adapter "is but a pittance" of the overall deal. Ha.

    Charging - 220 vs 110

    Most dealerships were not provided one with the bike, so buyers were not either. but dealers had them for purchase. My dealership made me buy one from them. Curious if all, that received the bike directly in the U.S., got the 120v adapter for free? Or free if you asked for one? or if some...

    Post here your Stark Varg issues (or not!)

    Many dealerships and individuals have had issues and, to troubleshoot, Stark sets up a live phone call to troubleshoot/diagnose. But, if the bike isn't running at all, perhaps diagnosis is limited and that is why no live session was set up. But then they and the dealership would be in "replace...

    My 240v Battery/Inverter Track Side Charging Setup

    Slick set up. I have quite a few LiFePO4 stand alone batteries that I use for our pickup camper, fishing boat's trolling motor, shop and trailer diesel heaters, etc. Also have a Bluetti power station that I used with my Varg a couple times. My Bluetti power station only has 120v, but even at...

    Charging - 220 vs 110

    Yes the Stark chargers come with a 240v plug. They sell a 120v adapter, for use in a 120v outlet. Max charge rate is about 1,600watts on 120v and 3,200watts on 240v. Having a 240v charge source is great if you forget to charge the bike or need to charge it fast, but most of the time, it's...

    Stark varg support is the worst

    To be fair, we have no insight into any of the communication leading up to that response. No excuse for that response, either way, but I imagine there were quite a few exchanges building up to that one. Ha. Sitting for that long is really odd. Have only heard of one issue of a bike sitting that...

    Displaying GPS/Trail/Mapping app on Stark phone while riding

    That's what I was doing with onX mapping app, but that means you have to stop to open, and see/use, the app. No good for using the app to know when to turn, etc. The solutions discussed above let one have your app-of-choice up as you ride, rather than Stark app, which will be nice. These two...

    NEW! STARK VARG EX is here!

    I'm in the group that will never pay a subscription for vehicle or powersports options/features. If I can't get a feature by buying, I just won't have it. Or I'll buy another companies product where I can buy the features I want rather than "rent" them. I do have a few subscriptions for...

    How Do You Plan To Survive (Battery) the Winter?

    They overlap at -40; not -42. But what's a couple degrees amongst friends! Ha. As for discharging, if it's below freezing temp, it would be good to take it easy on the bike before he rips a hot lop at WOT. Between a bit of time indoors while getting suited up and an easy-going practice/warm up...
