    Redshift charging connector type

    I measure 120 ohms (CAN terminator) across 2 of the small pins for both the shell-size-12 Varg (pins D & E) and the shell-size-10 Alta (pins C & B) - while they are both wired to the Elcon, therefore not sure if there is a resistor inside the Souriau plug or on the Elcon PCB (technically, this...

    Question about Stark charger 240v adapter: is neutral required?

    This exact unit works great at 240vac: SURAIELEC Watt Meter, Plug-in... Amazon.com

    Check your charger plug

    That’s not correct for North America. Never would want to bond neutral to ground “that point in the schematic labeled “sys gnd” Passing power via the ground point in an appliance is against NEC code cuz it can kill people. 120 volts is derived via a center tap of the 240 volt transmission line...

    Question about Stark charger 240v adapter: is neutral required?

    But can it survive 240vac in spite of its rated max 120 volts spec?

    Throtle Problem Alta

    The ELMOFO Hirschmann is not the correct throttle for the 2018 MXR. The MXR use a dual redundant version with 2 x Hall effect transistor circuits… also made by Hurshmann. It has a 6-pin JST connector (3-pins for each Hall effect circuit)

    LED tail/brake light and blinker conversion

    Through my own testing I found the ACM has both a minimum and a maximum expected current load of all lamps. So all you have to do is find those 2 points and use lamps that have loads within those parameters. I have the original turn signals and brake lamps if you need that data.

    Alta Multitool Download

    Bought an 2018 Alta MXR that came with an IBM Thinkpad and Multitool and the dongle etc... Does anyone know the Ubuntu user password for the user "redshift" (without the quotes) ? Only 1 user created.

    Varg charging from generator.

    That’s a slow charge. Varg & Alta both use the same Elcon 3.3KW charger. So the generator requires a generator with an inverter for a pure sine wave output with a constant 3.3KW output (not including the inefficiency of the Elcon) I use a Briggs & Stratton Q6500 (6500 watts peak) abt 95lbs...

    Looking for suspension specs to set SAG on 2018 MXR - have a Motool sag adjustment tool

    Nice! Where did you attach the glue-on plastic hook? (was thinking of going straight up to the fender if I can compensate for the additional length somehow)

    Looking for suspension specs to set SAG on 2018 MXR - have a Motool sag adjustment tool

    Per the user manual: (measuring from the button on axle top the rear tip of number plate) 534mm unloaded & 504mm static or 30 mm static sag. ( (Will throw all my gear on the bike and take the race sag and post that here.) Would you have a recommendation for using the Motool since it attaches to...

    Looking for suspension specs to set SAG on 2018 MXR - have a Motool sag adjustment tool

    any idea what sag settings I should aim for in the Motool?

    Looking for suspension specs to set SAG on 2018 MXR - have a Motool sag adjustment tool

    Never mind! - found the original spring (bought the bike used and it came with a 42-260. Now I have a 48-254 - so it makes a lot more sense. 1/4" shorter spring...what is the ride height multiplier caused by the linkages? To me the bike feels great - he fixed the extremely stiff front and the...

    Looking for suspension specs to set SAG on 2018 MXR - have a Motool sag adjustment tool

    Thanks Phillip! I tried entering the keyword “sag” into the general (not advanced) search which didn’t produce a result. Advanced search works.

    Looking for suspension specs to set SAG on 2018 MXR - have a Motool sag adjustment tool

    Would be nice to know the optimum static & rider sag for both forks and shock. Did not see it in the Alta user manual or in this forum.

    Replacement handlebar?

    flipped the bike and smashed the dual sensor Hirschmann throttle and LCD. Cracked the glass: still had backlight and bike still worked but no graphics. Looks like the microprocessor chip also drives the graphics and i suppose it popped only that portion of the chip, cuz soldering in a new LCD...

    Replacement handlebar?

    Which Flexx bars most closely match the geometry of the Neken R00182 ? Did you have to relocate the display?

    Alta throttle - all there is to know

    I don’t see that working even if the Alta safety checks were bypassed because a real clutch works by capturing the flywheel action of the motor which is a lot more instantaneous power than the power band of electric bikes w/o that feature. My workaround is to keep the stock MXR 12T/53T gear...

    With my style of riding, no need for special service tools for disassembly :)
