Vanilla Ice's Stark Varg
 
he is pretty enthusastic. I think the Lightning might be faster.
Pretty funny vid. He said there is a two year wait list.

Been a minute since I've been on BARF. Just had a Stark Delivered to my house last week. Excited to ride it at Hollister, but there appears to be a problem with my bluetooth module. SV is shipping me a new one right now. I can ride it, just don't have access to modes or battery level on the SV phone. Then I got covid. Maybe next week I'll get out to HH. Around the neighborhood it's super fun. I got the left mounted rear hand brake also. I'm a e-mountain biker, so I think I'll love it. Also have a KTM 300, 500, and 890, so this will be nice to add to the quiver. It will be nice to be distracted and not thinking about 890 cams turning into mush on my new 890. No cams! No valves! No TPI CCPS failure! Just friggen Bluetooth issues!!!
 
Turns out I just needed to do a reset on the SV and phone to get them to communicate. Still haven't ridden it at Hollister yet, maybe this weekend. Also, the registration process has been real slow. SV uses Ekhodealer to handle the paperwork. I talked to them earlier this week and they are a bit backed up with all of the orders. Once they submit to the DMV, it could take another 40 days! I called Hollister and they are allowing SV bikes to enter without registration stickers. Just show any kind of documentation saying it's yours. I said I had an invoice that shows my name linked to the VIN and they said that would be good enough.
 
Well I finally got to ride one! It's definitely nice.
 
I love mine. Until the stark my bike of choice has always been a 250/300cc 2 stroke (have had several). Still have a Beta 300rr race edition but to be honest I don't ever ride it anymore. I like the motor and egos of the stark so much. I think if it had a good ice motor in it I'd still like riding it as I agree with the with chassis of that bike a lot. I want to ride a new Honda 450 and see if maybe the last 2 decades on European 2 strokes I've been missing a feel that has been there all along.
 
What are the chances to get one of these street legal here in CA so you can ride it around town?

I have ran into this guy at HH and he is local to my area his is street legal i guess

I rode that bike today at Laguna in the paddock. 80 HP. I could barely crack the throttle and the front wheel was bound for the sky. OH, MY, GOD.
Maybe I need one

After riding your Alta i know an electric dirtbike is in my future. Just too easy to ride, too much fun. I'm thinking 4 or 5 years down the line. Let the dust settle on everything

My buddy was asking about getting the stark varg street legal so he can ride around Santa Cruz to do errands. I told him I'm not sure what kind of hoops you have to jump through to get that done
 
I saw a Varg at Hollister a week ago, so maybe they overcame that issue. Street legal is a whole nother hoop, methinks. One resolved, I think I need one. And another garage.
 
Whew that's some extreme enduro wish I could ride like that
 
Stark Varg 1.2
 
Heh I watched the whole thing they made quite a few improvements. All I'm saying is if the 1.2 is out does that mean the prices of 1.0 will go down significantly? =P
 
Damn thanks to Trump supposedly the prices were going down on these. It's a shame Alta isn't around anymore American electric motorcycles are great they just can't seem to stay in business. I'm throwing around the idea of getting a Varg MX and converting it to a supermoto. The Redshift is fast but it's not 450 fast and it's a shame the there's no one really racing 250s anymore =(
 
Noted a couple Starks racing in the world supercross series. Solid top ten.

A racer interviewed said you can’t hear them when racing so a little sketchy in battle.
