Thanks man, you are really helping the Varg community… When we receive ours we will already know what to do!

Again a superb video. You are really contributing to the Varg community. Thanks for your hard and good work.

Love these vids man keep ‘em comin! You’re helping usher in this new generation!

Very cool! Thanks for the video Bryan!

Im really excited for your track videos!

Thank you for this Bryan! Great vid!

Really, appreciate this video! My August delivery can’t come soon enough!

THIS IS SICK!! Thanks for another video!

Thanks for the updates, keep them coming. Can’t wait for mine to come but it will probably be a year 😢

I cannot wait till they make a road registerable version for Australia. I’ll be straight on it.

Bro I didn't hear a word you said with that loud ass fan

Thanks you! I'm looking forward to the riding video.

Oh man.. I just another day browsing one to the another and finally here.. its on my own, so not blaming you or anyone. I just (few hours back) read about Royal Enfield working with Stark Future in developing their own E-moto, and that lead me to watch their official videos and then all your experience from the Barcelona visit till this one. Congrats on your bike Haskell, looking forward for your first impression on your own super powerful bike. Cheers! \m/

Such an amazing beast,imagine 10 years from now the development in Edirtbikes is gonna be lit 😮🔥🤘🤠

Bryan - the suspense is killing us. Come On already - So happy for you mate . Cannot wait to hear your full warts and all first ride of your own steed. Appreciate you will keep some things a little tame so that Stark treat your feedback as constructive. ( As you should) but we know as Customer #1 you will be being watched by many 000's of interested Bike enthusiasts.

Congrats on the new bike...I love to hear real world reviews! I am curious if you have ever done any hard/fast woods rides or races with the Alta?...I'd be curious to know what the expected range would be under those conditions. Kepp the vids coming! \

Thank you. Great video.

If I had any reservations about buying one before, I think this video cured me of that. Obviously, I want to see the feedback of actually riding it, but the versatility looks amazing. As a retired off-road racer who just rides for fun now, this looks like just a ticket given the lack of maintenance. And hey, I already am an Emtb convert. What’s another electric two wheel vehicle in the garage!? Quick question, does the fan always run if the bike is on? Figured that would be a thermostat operated thing but doesn’t appear to be from your video.

Holy crap 80hp mode looks nuts😮

What kind of 240 volt plug dies it use? Like NEMA 14-50, etc.

Why is the fan running all the time without a reason?

thank you brian for the nice video

5.20.23 Good informative video. Question: The cooling fan does it have some kind of air filter?

Hallo, Im from germany. The Video is very interesting and good. You show the charging Menü from the App. Is only the current charging displayed there or can a maximum charging current be set? Can be charged wich a Honda 2.0 emergency generator? Thank you for an answer.

Great stuff thank you. Man how annoying is that fan😂

Stunning ❤

I can see this phone having issues when it is left in direct sun and overheats on a hot summer day.

Is there some sort of protective cover for the charge port on the bike to prevent dirt/ mud from getting into the charge port when you are riding?

Such a good looking bike. Hey, couple questions: 1: will the bike start without the phone mounted? Because, 2: I’m thinking this might make a sick supermoto. What are your thoughts about potential street performance? (Top speed, acceleration, etc). I currently have a zero fxs which i love but it just isn’t quite fast enough for me and not capable enough on dirt when desired. Stark would have almost double the hp, way more torque, lighter, and similar battery capacity (6.5 v 7.2 ah). Your videos have me on the edge of ordering this bike

Awesome this thing is incredible. Imagine the stark in 10 years time we are talking lighter more Hp and I’m sure full suspension tuning from the App

Can you access owners manual from phone?

A thought on the dash. It would be great if the dash left minimum corner speeds up. Great for training. It’s used in car racing all the time but never been available to moto before

I have been waiting to hear and see about the varge since their first launch. Thanks Bryan If possible turn up audio But all good with buds

Really excited! How are you expecting the OTA updates to work? I'm assuming through the phone app. Also, anything special about the phone or will we be able to BYOD?

cant wait for you to meet up with PRO rider on track see what they think=interviews please... hope stark varg is paying you to HOST this first Stark varg release..

How would this do in enduro mate like rock gardens,logs,technical stuff

Does the fan stays on all the time? I found it noisy when you were testing the bike at stark but was thinking that it was going off sometime. Also being on all the time, it probably use more battery.

Is there an option for a basic odometer on the page that's displayed while you ride?

When you let off at 80hp what is the popping noise coming from? It sounds like something from the motor are jumping or gear box?

At what rpm and speed does the power start to drop at?

10:25 Does the bike really have regenerative braking? I have only heard engine braking being talked about. So if the bike have regenerative braking, the engine brake will also help charge the battery? Is this true?

Anton, if you're watching, it would be good if the blue LED flashed n times to match the selected map.

Why is the radiator fan on for a cold bike? Or had you just ridden it?

How much do you pay for the service on the phone, i.e. subscription?

Makes me wonder if a very high engine braking will cause the front end to drop over large jumps. Did you settle on a number that felt familiar here?

Please give us a demo of the Transfer Ownership option. You can use my name if you want 🤣

Can you ride without the phone installed? Just thinking if you crash and crack the phone is the bike dead in the water.

It would be nice if you could program max horsepower for the start and then have it revert to another pre-programmed setup after say 10 seconds. I' getting excited for my Oct. delivery.

I don't get the fan being on while not riding. Cold day, slow riding, would it even be required? I can see people making a thermistor hack if this can't be changed via software. Bryan, would be great if you could point an infrared thermometer at the battery, radiator and engine case after a ride.

Need this on register for riding onroad

Just like Tesla. The only bike that gets better after you buy it with OTA updates. Love our Teslas and will love this bike. Thanks for the content.

Do you need to buy a SIM card for the phone and set it up with a phone company ?

Did you order yours with the big bore ?

hello, will there be a test on the dyno?

Yeah I was surprised by the fan. I could see if the bike was hot…. But it wasn’t. No temp sensor = less weight 🤷‍♂️ lol

Loving what I see so far Bryan.. but that noisy fan .. is it really that loud or is it just because you’re in your garage.. is it on a thermostat so only comes on when it’s hot ?

Personally would not leave the phone on in races or trail riding. But I'd love to have a simple battery % meter, similar to the one Electric Motion has on their trials bikes.

Do you know if stark has pre wired and or is offered a headlight taillight kit?

What level of waterprofing does the phone have? Thinking about riding in rain and/or heavy mud...

Good work all 🍻

Thanks for the detailed overview! Do they recommend removing the phone during cleaning? Did the instructions give you storage info for the battery? Mine shows up in Nov, so it will sadly sit a lot for the winter. This is assuming reviewers give it good single track and enduro reviews and I dont cancel my order. Range on the trails is my last reservation, everything else looks solid.

Awesome videos Bryan. I've watched them all. My Alpha won't arrive until Dec so I'm living vicariously through your vids until then so keep em coming! Question: I know you need to charge the bike on the stand and presumably the charger is part of the stand however is there any way to take the charger with you, say in a backpack? I live in AZ and we often take longer rides through the desert and stop somewhere for lunch so I'm wondering if I'd be able to plug in somewhere and juice up a bit? I reached out to Stark Support and they didn't give me a clear answer. Thoughts?

So the phone does not require cell service? You can connect it to your personal phone or home Wi-Fi for downloads/improvements future? How about HR on the display? Thanks for these videos. Will we super helpful when the rest of us get our bikes.

Can you lock the bike?

It seems like mounting it to the bike would make it prone to damage in an accident. Does it have to be mounted for the bike to run? Can it be stored in a backpack?

Nice thank you

December 2024 delivery date if you order it right now? How do people already have them?

Hi there, has anyone else found that their alfa wont pair to their phone? Ive tried customer support and sent videos etc but they have been pretty silent after the videos i sent. Noone else had this problem? I cant even try to pair to my daily phone (galaxy 22 ultra) because its "incompatible" but ive found a sequence of buttons that still lets me ride it in some kind of default mode. I cant see my range or change modes etc. Really hoping to resolve this. Yes bluetooth is enabled and the app knows the bike is nearby and available. If i try to pair to it in my specific bluetooth settings, it asks for a pin / passkey that no matter what I try, says is incorrect. Any pointers? Also its simcard seems to not be working for data only, i have to hotspot from my phone to give the Stark phone internet. Just a dodgy phone?

I can't wait for new videos about max range, speed and stuff. I personally don't know what to think about the phone. I think a normal speedometer with an app for your own phone would be better. Android phones often get really slow and die after some time. Maybe not this one I hope. Also why is the fan on all the time when the bike is not plugged in? I mean it wasn't hot or something. When charging or hot I would understand.

When you going down the street on it ?

If the bike is charging in the garage, can you take the display module (phone) into the house with you and its still connected so you can watch it charge.

Dang that fan is loud! My KTM Freeride has a super quiet water pump the spins thats all you can hear.

So does the phone come with the bike or is it sold separately?

What is the maximum speed.

How long does that fan run??

What is the life of the battery and how much is it to replace?

Please make a range test (30mph max speed) i am very interested

Would be sweet if they gave options for regen amount by speed, like almost no regen from 60-80mph and say 50% regen down at like 30mph; or hard stops on when the regen is on or off, its got a g meter so they should be able to tell if someone is coasting vs stopping and on the brakes.

Will the bike run without the phone?

I can’t seem to find this info anywhere, does stark charge a monthly fee for the phone and or app?

Hopefully there’s a bar pad or something to cover phone because if someone cases on it and hits it with there helmet it’s gone

Awesome videos. I have a question. Why would you not want to fully charge the bike before parking it up for a while. Congrats on being no.1 owner. Your doing that position great justice.

Let’s gooooo 🔥

So if your in the woods and you flip the bike and smash the screen your pretty much screwed?

Any dissapointments or surprises other than weight?

I love it. gonna put my 16 year old son on this thing IMMEDIATLY

Is the stark varg password protected, and what are the requirements for the password? DOes it make you update your passowrd? Is there a subscription that you need for things like say wheelies or sick whips?

Wow!

Dangerously close to Spektrum Smart tech. This thing is gonna rule motocross in 5 years.

So it has a cell phone. Whats the range with a fully charged battery? 30 miles? 10 miles?

Does the phone have to stay in the bike as you ride? Like if you are doing a MX or SX race, I would imagine a rider would not want the phone there? This is hypothetical that people will use the bike for local races. What about a crash pad over the phone? Very cool video... looks like amazing technology. I look forward to your other videos, especially riding on tracks. Thanks. PS: Why did that loud fan turn on when the bike is not being ridden (not talking about when you started charging, but when the bike was just sitting their).

Can you hook this phone up to your carrier and make phone calls and stuff

How much does this Alpha bike cooooost!!!!!????

Did he say 80 ponies 😮

Really surprised they did not put any effort into making the phone actually decent. OS looks incredibly outdated, and overall form factor just looks like it came out of 2015. But it's definitely the most versatile screen on any ebike so I guess you gotta have a compromise lol

They need to get you on the payroll!

This is hopeless i bought my bike trough a dealership so i don't have a registered VIN on my account...

So the phone is the 80hp. Using the phone on a different varg will bring your account with 60 or 80 hp

if you dont make a video riding this thing tomorrow im going to find you and steal it.. lmao get on er budd!!!

So it’s not possible to select power delivery? So it’s still all or nothing same as the Alta ? 🙇
