Laugh out loud! Thank you so much brother! 56 years old and I really don’t have a bank account, but I definitely have some cool shit! I just keep pushing in the direction I think I should head! in the end, you can’t take it with you! Thank you for coming in. I so appreciate you!
I totally agree! I love all kinds of motorcycles, but this one really speaks to me. And definitely hard to beat some Arizona single track! So beautiful out there! Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I so appreciate you! Cheers!
I demo'd a Stark Varg this past weekend on an MX track. I went in with an open mind, and the bike was ok, but not nearly as refined or nice as the newer gas bikes. The Stark felt like it would be great to tool around the backyard on, but I'll be keeping my 2 stroke for MX and single track.
Thank you for taking the time to reply! I absolutely love the stark on single track and would prefer it over any of my gas motorcycles. But totally understand and respect your opinion I think it’s great. You took the time to go ride one! I’m keeping my 500 EXC in my fleet. I don’t think electric will ever totally replace gas. Hard to go on a cross country trip on electric but for what I do out the expedition truck this bike totally has changed my game with having to carry gas in the back once again. I appreciate you taking the time to comment! Braaap!
I enjoyed hearing about your electric setup for the full rig. Game for changer for sure. Those of us who take multi day trips in the back country get it.
Thank you so much! Nice to be able and sit for a prolonged stay and be able to run you toys off the sun! Your one of the few who get it! Cheers to you Brother! Thank you for taking the time to comment!
Thank you so much! I am really enjoying this bike! The more I ride it the more I love it! Thank you for taking the time to comment. I so appreciate that! Cheers!
I totally agree! I don’t know if we’ll ever have them totally replace a gas motorcycle, but this is my number one go to Bike for single track! I was so impressed with the torque right off the bottom that I meant doubling stuff coming out of a corner super easy! They are the future for sure! Thank you for taking the time to comment. I really appreciate you! Cheers, brother!
I was extra sold on the Stark when it was introduced (in red 😍 ) but that color you've got definitely still goes! Sounds like we can have an electric Moto party down in AZ or the Buttes with your set up ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ ⚡ How long you had the new bike (80th bike???) Early bday present?? 🤩
All the colors are great and it only like $280 to get a full set in a different color! I have a set of white at the house! June 4 is my birthday and yes early birthday present! Bike 79 0r maybe 80! LOL! I will have this one for a long time! So amazing right out of the box! As you know it will only get better from here! CR high bars and Tubliss system going in this week as well as Highway dirtbike hand guards witch will take some fab to pull off with the phone/display on the triple clamps! I just got the bike on Tuesday and made it home yesterday! High winds closed the trip early. That's ok because I have a lot to do!
@@ivladjoll7410 for sure! The writing I really enjoyed doing as a tight technical single track, which would normally be first and second gear on a 300. With the electric motorcycles the faster you go, the more the battery drains. I got that hour and 13 minutes of riding and that took me down to 71% battery which charged off the solar on the truck, a little less than an hour and a half to 100%! Absolutely love the bike!
I don’t know who Joe is and I definitely don’t have any affiliation stark future. I just keep it real and raw. I go with what I know! What is exciting about it is, instant torque ,80 hp which I don’t think you really need with a really balanced chassis And really good suspension! Oh, and it charges off my expedition truck! A dirtbike that runs off the sun! Thank you for taking the time to comment. I do appreciate each and every comment!!
That sounds about right! At 70% takes about an hour and 25 minutes off the truck and I have it set to the slowest charge rate on 110 so the charges off the solar on my truck!
@@ThisTall it would be half the time if I were to charge it off of 220 V instead of 110 V. My plan was just to be able to charge it off of the solar that I have off the truck which works really well! Next week I will be out at Glen Helen motocross track in Southern California and I will be doing some Motos and recharges in between! I believe another bat is $3500 but not easily swappable. You can go to the Stark website and look at all the parts available for the bike and I actually feel like everything’s pretty reasonably priced!
A feklow Varg owner in AZ; I just sent you an e-mail. I am loving mine so far. Identical build to your except in white. I just sent you an e-mail - love to do some riding together!
Thank you once again for taking the time to comment and reaching out! Look forward to meeting you in person and riding with you! I absolutely love this motorcycle!
@@TRCa51 I got to try a stark recently and I really liked the way the bars felt, and was wanting something similar for my yz250f. Do you think like a protaper cr low would be the most similar?
@@dduke143 I will be removing the bars off of my start to replace them with taller ones. If you’re somewhere in the SoCal area, I’m in San Bernardino. I will give them to you.
Being that I have rub marks now on the radiator shrouds, I would say no. As a guy that comes with the background of 30 years of riding observe motorcycle trials, I tend to ride really not gripping the bike and letting the bike float under me with pressure being applied to the foot pegs. if you’re coming from a motocross background, you tend to be very grippy on the bike where I tend to let the bike float underneath me. Even still with my riding style there’s definitely rub marks on the plastics. Hope this answers your question! Thank you for taking the time to comment! Cheers, brother!
@herbrachel3663 if you get a chance to test ride one, I highly recommend it! I basically bought mine without riding it. But I do have to say after putting them just a little over three hours on it and 2 1/2 days I absolutely love it and highly recommend it!
I have to say I have no idea what the real ranges of the motorcycle. I ride single track hard and extreme Enduro and was riding very technical and flow and fun single track. I seem to be always at 70% battery life left after about an hour hour and 15 minutes, an hour and 30 minutes that takes about an hour and a half to charge back up off the truck! I tried to shoot some drone footage of the ride, but it got super windy and the drone would not follow me due to the Highwinds.
@@TRCa51 ok just making sure I didn’t miss that. Sounds like you got some good riding in 🤷🏼♂️…electric is cool but it’s the range that always made me hesitate
@@localenterprisebroadcastin5971 and to be totally clear if you’re riding normal like desert terrain, it may not be enough range for you. I’m riding single track and hard terrain that doesn’t take a whole lot of battery. The more you hold the throttle wide-open the less range you’re gonna have! not a replacement for the gas motorcycle but if you ride extreme train, the battery life is plenty where you are ready for the rest and let the bike charge!
This dudes my hero. I can't wait until i have owned 80 bikes. I'm so broke lol

What's the max speed?
@@ivladjoll7410 My max was 48MPH there are people saying the Alpha (80Hp) will do 96MPH.
@@TRCa51 nice to know it doesn't have some random speed restriction put on it

I’d LOVE to have one as my hard enduro.
35min for 10% charge?
That sounds about right! At 70% takes about an hour and 25 minutes off the truck and I have it set to the slowest charge rate on 110 so the charges off the solar on my truck!
@@TRCa51 I’m sure I can look this up elsewhere. But what’s the bikes fastest possible charge time? And what does a 2nd battery cost?

What are the measurements of the stock handle bars?
I feel like the are like a CR low. I'm 6'3" and I puk a CR High or KX High on all my bikes.

@@TRCa51 Thanks man! but I’m in AK. Maybe you could get measurements of the bars for me though? That would be awesome.
Is it too skinny to grip good with your knees?

@TRCa51 I am from an mx past. I tend to go from gripping hard to letting the bike float under me too. Bikes are so cool
