Media Review Stark Varg SM vs. KTM 690 SMC R

Solid review (y)

I think an Electric 690 rival would be great. Varg with a double battery and some comfort options and a DC charger should weigh about the same as a 690.
Now that would be a dyke/canyon weapon without compromise.
 
It would weigh more than a 690. You would have to add ABS, a CCS2 receptacle for DC charge, and probably an onboard AC charger for when DC charge is not available. All that adds up. Just me venting now, but CCS2 was not designed with bikes in mind; it is huge and heavy.

Royal Enfield already has a number of these bikes, but they are not for sale. Kind of a shame, they are brilliant bikes IMO.
