The crack of the throttle between 20 or 60 is worlds apart though...?

Wheelies kinda, but i roll on smooth on the straight an thus it is no issue. Same in the corners. Smooth opening gives a super predictable response, way smoother than any ICE.

Offcourse full power and open throttle gives both wheely and wheelspin at the same time. But since i'm not suicidal i put it in 48hp and have grip instead.
As long as you have good throttle control, the first 1/8-1/4 of the throttle is the same torque regardless of setting IMO? You don't get the big ponies until you twist it really good.

Just got my EX and mounted my supermoto 17” wheel setup and currently am running 15t front sprocket and 45t rear sprocket but my power train is cutting power at 83mph and you can feel it hit a brick wall and just kill the power it still has plenty of to keep acceleratin. I’ve seen plenty of videos where Vargs are hitting 103-107mph in plenty of YouTube videos on stock dirt wheels and tires. I was wanting to obviously find a way to remove this limitation and get a higher speed out of the bike somehow. I can’t get an answer from Stark or my local dealer about this what so ever. Anyone have any experience with this issue?

Hmm? I have mine 15/42 but haven't tried high speeds, wheels are balanced, maybe I should send it down the toll road and see? GPS speed limiting? Auto's have governor's based on the tire speed rating, just wondering..

The EX comes with shorter gearing from factory than the MX so the speedo reads lower as it is measuring the motor rpm. 83 mph speedo reading with supermoto tires and 15/45 sprockets is ~100 mph gps speed

Atleast in EU road regulations don't allow gps based speedo
Even then you would think Stark knows how to program for different gearing? On the China bikes it's easy to plug in the tire OD to calibrate your speedo, they use the typical magnetic pickup. Does the EX not have one?
