Ok Guys, I also just put down the massive $100 deposit on the red max HP Stark VARG with the hand brake for the 220 pound rider. I don't honesty need one because my Alta MXR still looks and drives like new and only has 1700 miles on it. But, as we all know, need and want blur as we look deep...

Thanks for the fun comment C5tor. Charge on!

Happy Holidays AOF, I have a '19 EXR with 1500 miles on it. Half of those are on dirt single track. Below is my range summary and what happens when I had to push the battery limits. Dirt riding: When I am out in the dirt, map 1 is my go to map to save battery range. I don't use my breaks...

Thanks for taking on this project. I'd enjoy the ability to increase the regeneration on my bike to get more range. I exped that this will likely be outside of the scope of what you are working on. Thanks.

Hi Motophylic. When I saw your name, I instantly recognized it was creative and a perfect name for our AOF community and the broader motorcycle community. Well done Motophylic! AND for those wondering what we are talking about, here is why I thought Motophylic is such a good name. phylic...

Hi Motophyllic, (love the name by the way) Thank you for the very kind offer. I am going to do the drill through method ( as evidenced by WWmotors picture below). I am going to attempt to design and 3d print a small rack to go on top and may even integrate the stand-off into the rack for...

Hi Snydes, Thank you for the detailed explanation ad the fast response. My bike is waiting for the fix and your fast help means I can get up and running by the weekend. I understand the process clearly now. Thank you again, Bruce

Hi WWmotors (AKA "No Braaap") What length screws did you use and how did you make the spacers? Can you post pictures from the underneath looking up? This looks solid.

Hey Snypes, Thanks for initiating this post and for replying to my post regarding my EX with the same problem. I have read your post and am not sure I understand what you did. Please correct me if I got something wrong: Did you: 1) take the fender off the bike, 2) turn the top fender upside...

Hi Guys, My 2019 EX with 1200 miles on mostly dirt singletrack had lose sounds coming from the rear fender plastics. Turns out it was just what my buddy Rashid said. The plastics are wallowing out in a couple of inserts Was wondering if anyone tied to insert them again with epoxy or some...

Great article.

I bought an extra fast charger from Liquid Performance after Rashid pointed me to them. Thanks Rashid! I'll be mounting it in my motorcycle trailer which plugs into my generator for those days when riding 35 miles just isn't enough. I've gotten 45-50 miles with 10% left but that is all low...

Great looking bike. What kind of range do you get on the SM?

Nope and nope -but good questions. The capacitor is called a "DC link capacitor". It's primary role is to reduce the current ripple that the battery sees as a result of the rapid and changing (turning on and turning-off) of the half-bridge circuit as the inverter creates a sign wave...

Just to clarify what my friend Rashid510 said earlier, the Inverter takes high voltage DC from the battery and converts it to a 3-phase AC sine wave that is fed to the motor. The inverter also takes the 3-phase AC sine wave created from the rotational kinetic energy of the wheels spinning the...

Purchased one. looks cool

Great wall of fame.

I'm interested in learning about Alta motorcycle long term reliability. I love my bike and have had no issues other than an initial fault code stating that the charging terminals weren't connected properly. I have never had that fault since I have been riding the trails. Which AOF member...

I expect that I am speaking for the rest of this forum with the following analysis: I bought the '19 EXR. I have ridden Honda's for my whole life. While I can't comment anymore on Alta performance under full MX race conditions (read my profile), what I can say is that with the exception of...
