On the assembly line (as i've been told), the batteries were picked for the bikes from a pool of complete battery packs. So the VIN# of the frame is not quite directly linked to the problem packs, because VIN 491 could have battery pack 260, while VIN 492 could have pack 400. The problem packs seem to be in the 200-400 range of battery barcodes, if i recall correctly.

The pack range is a bit tighter than that. FIFO (First in First Out) was practiced until it went crazy due to dealer requests/rework and just overall forgetfulness.

You folks need to ride more. I am 1.5 years and over 4K problem free miles.
I too have 4K miles on ‘17 MX 019. My 2001 TMRacing 250 2T is getting lonely.
I have had to replace tires, chain and sprockets on the Alta. I can’t deal with the air filter though.

With the EX build I would say probably. No to being concerned.
