I don't think that's necessarily true. It's a new company with a brand new type of product, I signed up for it knowing there will be growing pains. As long as they can deliver me a correctly working bike, I'm thrilled with it. If not, that's another story, but I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. This thing's fun
I also think the internet is a poor barometer of the reality of what is really occurring. People who have problems post, folks who don't have problems often don't post. So the information is not really correlated to the actual product results.

Defect rates could be extremely low and my guess is that since Stark is now offering extended warranties that the numbers of defects may be far lower than the internet complaints would indicate. Also, I know of few other companies selling OHVs who offer factory warranties like the Stark and even less offering extended warranties.

So it took your dealer about 4 weeks to change the power train?
Was it 3 weeks and a half of doing nothing and finally getting to it or did they have to wait that long for spare parts?
Good luck with the new parts!

It took me a week and a half to pick it up and reply here :). Stark had the parts to them within a week and it was fixed within another 4 days. Time will tell if it is truly "fixed" though. I'll update if I have any other issues.

Thanks for the detailed answer, that's pretty good service then.

I had the same problem this morning. At first, I thought it was a problem with the heat soak. I let the bike cool down for at least 10 minutes, but it took less than a kilometer to happen again later.
I've never had an issue on dirt, but this happened on my second supermoto ride.

I suspect I have a powertrain issue because on high loads (70-100% open throttle) with 60-80hp (the 2 modes I use on the road), I hear a chunking noise and it's not smooth when it's delivering power. It's a bit similar to what I had with cars that had a faulty drive shaft.
It's been two and a half months since I last rode on dirt, but I don't remember feeling this way. It's probably easier to feel on the street because it can put power down without spinning.

I tried to listen and feel it on a lift stand, but I couldn't because there is no resistance in the air.
I contacted Stark about this issue.
