thats 737 ftlbs...Good Lord! how do you even hold onto to that at full power mode? mind also blown! what do most 450's do? about 50ft lbs more or less and maybe 55-60hp?

Just put a horn on it!

When I get mine I’m looking @ putting playing cards on the spokes Make a little noise!!

I use a gas generator. This day i had the generator placed in front of my truck with an extension cord ran to the bike, so as to keep the noisy generator away from the pit area.

Yeah was just taking glances down at the phone to monitor battery% every so often. PS: Your daughter is 100% right! buy 2! i wish i did.

@@bwhaskell One for each moto! LOL

dude, Best excuse EVER!!!, " My daughter told me I had to buy it"

Not at the moment

This bike jumps pretty straight. Its just my style to dip the nose in the air. Helps me stay loose. Horn is simply me yelling.

Hard to say how much longer those 13% of the top battery will take you. If it's actually only 13% witch will give him only 5 more minutes, I'm also disipointed. Hes not that heavy rider and not on a full race phace.. I really hope those extra 13% on the top is more power than that.

Agreed, just looking at the numbers & assuming it’s at a steady rate of power drain he was able to ride 26 min before hitting the 20% indicator & noticeable power drop. He started riding at about the 3 min mark & hit the 20% around the 29min mark. So 87% to 20% in 26 min or 2.5769% battery per min of riding at his weight, skill level on that track. So that additional 13% would give him roughly another 5 min of ride time. So 31 minutes total at his level of variables. Probably plenty for most riders but definitely not enough for a pro at a 30min +2 lap national. Why is the battery only able to charge to 87% is another question & when will Stark fix that, update the SW?

@@randyarnson9396 Bryan has now said that Stark have issued an update to fix the bug. Also, having the battery charge to a full 100% should make a big difference, as battery life does not taper off linearly.

Just wait until Tesla gets their new battery technology implemented, that technology will later come to motocross, who knows in how many years.

@@Bozza36 yeah, I saw his post showing he was now able to charge to 100%. Hopefully he’ll do another 30 min + moto to see how it does. He was going to try the amateur national race at Fox Raceway today but wasn’t feeling well (respiratory cold) so he went to Perris Raceway instead. Said he might try some enduro, single track type riding soon to see how it preforms there. I have one ordered & am still on the fence a little about getting it so I’m trying to gather as much info as I can in the next 2 months.

Engine braking only puts a tiny amount back into the battery. I'm still TBD on amateur day tomorrow... I am sick at the moment.

@@bwhaskell 5.25.23 Bryan, I understand and get better. Would like to see some racing and start videos on the Varg.

80hp on tires

Stark by far. No vibrations, no clutch, no shifting, super smooth power... are all things a gas bike does opposite which wears you out. This bike doesnt wear you out, besides having massive power (if youre using a high power map).

or enduro

You cannot draw 60,000 watts (80hp) from a battery the size of the whole motorcycle. Nobody is certifying these power ratings you need to look into this a little further. Unless they have somehow tripled battery energy density, this bike would struggle to be certified for 10 SAE HP.

@@Dat_Sun Shut up. I had my Alta on a dyno, and it showed 50hp as advertised. Search youtube for the video. Bryan can tell this is faster than the Alta. It may not be possible to use more than 60hp on most tracks though because the bike will be wheelie limited below 50mph.

@@SupercarEngg Friend, taking a hp dyno measurement without something to compare it to back to back is elementary ripping somebody off tactics. I have seen these electric bike dyno measurement videos. I noticed the superskinny tire, a dyno that has been calibrated to read extremely high (happy dyno) and a limited amount of white open throttle time. It's smoke and mirrors, the reality is this bike is an embarrassing flop. Everyone uploading videos of electric bikes is showing a handpicked harpacked situation, you never see these things racing against fast bikes or riders, only actors and editing makes these videos possible. I have been trying to get somebody to come up here to Grand County Colorado with an electric dirt bike to make one trip around the BLM land. I have offered several brand new dirt bikes, cash the guest cabin food generators everything needed.. All I want is the rights to make a KZfaq video with the results. Even if my advanced electronic powervalve 2-stroke top of the line ready to race dirt bike loses to a power wheel.

@@Dat_Sun Having of ridden an Alta MXR back to back with a few other bikes, I can say without a shadow of a doubt it is fast. I would say it feels similar to a 250 2 stroke that is always in the power band. It wasn’t as fast as my 450, but if the Varg is faster than his MXR I wouldn’t doubt it’s capable of producing 60+ hp at the wheels.

3++ hours

Just a software bug. It has been fixed already. All my future rides will be starting at 100%

yes, but not as much as a good hybrid car. Varg needs some refinement here.

Jumps straight, feels nimble with the instant torque. You have a lot of pitch control with electric. In a sense its safer, cuz if you start endoing you can correct it by simply wacking the throttle since you're not limited to a rev limiter in 2nd/3rd/4th/5th gear like you are on a gas bike. Hold it pinned in the air and the back tire whicks up to max speed quickly.

He said 1 minute per 1% so 90minutes. Everyone with electric bikes used a portable generator

Depends how much battery you use during your ride, right? That's why i just say 1min per 1%.

You can order it with Enduro tires, but they have stated this is built for tracks. Im sure it will work on single track you’d just have to do some suspension work.

@@lafdew It ain't tires I worry about, those can be changed. It is how it works as a stealth, silent enduro machine over rocks, logs and up steep climbs.

Power holds consistent until about 20% battery, and then starts to fade.

My bike came with the forks about 5mm up in the clamps, sprung for my weight (of course), clickers set at 12 out, and sag was at 98mm. I put the forks flush in the clamps right away but decided to go back to 5mm since it felt like the front end was riding a bit high. Suspension feels great, just a few minor clicker adjustments but its still breaking in. I have some plans with a company that i'll announce here soon. Hard to compare to my Alta right now becuase it has air fork and custom valving. But so far, i'm really happy with the stock Varg suspension.

Yup. Watch my initial review when i was out in Barcelona.

Or even five minutes to swap. The way the battery is in currently, it seems like four bolts and an electrical connector would be fairly simple for a battery swap. If they ever try to race outdoors, it sounds like they wouldn’t be able to make both moto’s even with recharging in between.

The batteries are $7000s unfortunately

@@Runk3lsmcdougal wonder if the aftermarket would be able to provide a less expensive one at some point. even if it was $5k that's still a lot.

@@Runk3lsmcdougal are they? I would have to imagine they are a bit less. $12k for the whole bike and production + profit with a $7k battery seems out of line. $5k I could see though unfortunately.

Untill the driver is gassed, that's the limiting factor.

Definitely have to be careful! Noone can hear me coming. Sometimes i yell "HEYYYYYY" as a courteousy.

More than your can use. At least a thousand

Lol... that's only 250 days of riding or less for some folks. Less than 2 years for those that ride a lot. 😅

@@woodysrockspyro6436 clearly you have no idea what you're talking about. 1000 charges will last you for years nobody rides that much. I put two thousand miles on my Alta mxr in three years I ride it two to three times a week and I probably haven't charged it more than 100 times. It's a lot of riding it

You're worried about noise, pollution, and danger.... I already know you voted biden 😂. Grow a set and stop living in fear. Your electric is way more polluting than fuel. Everything is dangerous, drinking too much water can be a danger, and as far as noise... snow flake ❄️

depends what you set the engine braking to

the charger can pull a max of 16A on 240V = 3840watts. So i tell people to get a generator that can output at least 4000 watts continuous.

@@bwhaskell thanks, is it adjustable at all, in particular is there a lower setting?

@@8180634 You can adjust the Amps supplied to the bike, which theoretically could lower the input amp requirement.
