    STARK VARG (Something new is coming!)

    An interesting "Stark Varg Motocrosser Tech Analysis" in Cycle World published yesterday. I'll quote some of the more interesting assessments that Steven Anderson presents:

    Installing brake strobe questions

    That's the version I have. (I purchased my first one via crowdfunding, and I'm pretty sure it was MORE expensive than the Amazon Prime price!)

    Installing brake strobe questions

    I've had a Vololights flashing license plate frame installed on my SM for most of its life. Installation is super-easy, because the Vololight comes with a tool-less "clamp" that pulls power from the wires that feed your license plate lamp. Once you've got the Vololight mounted, you use the...

    SM Onboard Charger bricked

    Hmmm... after re-reading your post, and also thinking about my lights not working, I'm wondering if my issue is a failure of the main harness (or the harness connector to the OBC and/or ACM). Or maybe the harness is okay, but the OBC and ACM are both dead. (Although MT did not report anything...

    SM Onboard Charger bricked

    Thanks! I saw your original post about that... and I was thinking that I'd remove my bricked OBC and take it apart first, to see if it's fixable... but given that I haven't even gotten around to removing it, I changed my thinking and went ahead and ordered an OBC from BMW of SF.

    SM Onboard Charger bricked

    Uggghh. Not looking forward to doing this work. (Hence, I haven't started.) I'd love to see pictures if you have them. There are no mods to my SM other than an inertially activated deceleration flasher (a license plate frame with integrated LEDs that replaced the stock license-plate light)...

    SM Onboard Charger bricked

    Thanks @Philip & @Mark911 for the quick replies. Much appreciated! Apologies for being off-planet for the past few weeks. It's been a busy busy July — kids taking precedence. I couldn't find any resources describing how to physically access the OBC. Do I need to drop the battery out of the...

    SM Onboard Charger bricked

    The onboard charger on my SM (#29) seems to be dead. When I last rode my SM, "Code 33" (High Voltage Isolation) appeared on the dash and all of the lights went out. I was able to ride it back home (sans lights). Now, nothing happens when I plug the Alta extension cord into the charger inlet of...

    Code 33 service required just appeared on display.

    Yikes! I hope you're fully recovered! I've got a Code 33 on my SM. None of its lights will turn on, and it won't charge. (The display seems to be the only low-voltage item that hasn't had its power cut off.) I'm waiting for the CANBUS cable/dongles I ordered to arrive, before I try to diagnose...

    @Trialsbikeadam, were you able to fully resolve your Code 33 issue?

    How-To : Install and Use Alta Multitool Software

    Thank you @TCMB371 for the tutorial!!! I PayPal'ed a couple Hamiltons to you (easier than mailing you a 6-pack of Sixpoint The Crisp or 21st Amendment Brew Free or Die!) in appreciation for all of your time and effort. With Multitool installed on my Surface Pro, now I'm just waiting for my...

    Want to buy SM in the Northeast

    Have you called Pilgrim Powersports in MA? That's where I bought my SM in 2017. (I was one of the first preorder deposits on an SM many many years ago.) A couple months ago, they still had a couple Redshifts on their website.

    ALTAnalyser - tool to display bike data - interessted?

    Ooohh... if the group of you could put your heads together... and it leads to a more capable data acquisition device... maybe one that's integrated with Sebastion's replacement display... I'd be even more psyched.

    ALTAnalyser - tool to display bike data - interessted?

    $200 for a data acquisition device that shows me some geeky numbers, but doesn't really let me act upon those numbers directly? Well... considering I've spent just as much on all sorts of similar tools for my electric-powered RC obsession hobby... yes, sign me up. :geek:

    Display alternative with additional features

    Bummer that things unfolded the way they did. Meanwhile, I'm curious to hear more about your alternative display, once you've done more testing. Thanks for putting in the effort!
