Moto 2 and they're already glorifying the man made shitty track. It's like glorifying lizzo and her obesity. This isn't gncc. It's moto. Slot car 23 here we go. Ps, I wasn't hating on Deegan or the B guys. They're doing what they're told.. I'm hating the game, not the players.

Stark has inconspicuously adjusted their specs, and moved their goalposts, AGAIN. An MXGP "Heat" is about 25 minutes. It's called a Qualifying race, and is held the day before the actual race. Make no mistake about it, Stark knows this and intentionally used the misnomer "Heat". So now we've gone from original specs of 242 pounds and a full length MXGP moto (35 minutes) to 260 pounds and 25 minutes. And the PR spin back in May made it sound like you were getting a free gift with that larger, HEAVIER battery. This is not hate against Stark or eBikes...

The FIM is controlled by regional motorcycling associations, who are controlled by member motorcycling clubs (riders!), the AMA is controlled by its board of directors, who are the manufacturers. Their respective championships reflect this, FIM EMX is focused on rider development, Loretta's AMA Amateur nationals is focused on extracting money from riders.

An MXGP "heat" actually doesn't exist, which shows how much Stark knows what they're talking about. Theres's a qualifying race and two motos. Anyway, who would want to do a GP qualifying race knowing he won't be able to finish the motos? Your own demonstration shows finishing the race would be a miracle. The point is Stark pretends the Varg can be a racer's weapon of choice and it's not. By the way, I don't even think it would be allowed in the race, right now. It's just marketing bs.

Don't know but when i was riding i was going to the track half day or the all day and was doing multiples 15 minutes sessions. i rode maybe 2h of cumulative time I am very surprised that a lot o you claim that their almost never doing moto more than 1/2h 😲

When did this become about the "average rider" and him "only doing a few laps anyway"? It's always being about Starks marketing hype (read lies). I like the Varg and it's definitely a bike I'd look at a few models down the track, but outright lies should always be called out.

You mean Stark is deliberately lying on its website?

You're definitely lucky to live in San Diego. Hopefully more people feel that way and decide to stay there instead of coming here. You said it yourself, the weather in Idaho is horrible.

What a joke that whole claim thing was? The way the industry came down on the Schofield and the mechanic was ridiculous. The industry giving Cotter etc interviews purely to defend themselves with ZERO push back was crazy to listen to. That's not journalism. Lost alot of respect for the industry with that incident.

It's against the rules... but if you have money, power or influence you will be OK.

MxSports making a fuss about Deegan’s graduation during this year’s Nationals, with Tim Cotter presenting and congratulating Haiden, added further salt to that ‘perception and appearance’ wound. Must think we all have the memory of a goldfish.

There could possibly be some claims this year. Now, with that being said, whether the claims are completed or not remains to be seen. It looks as though, if the bike being claimed belongs to a high profile rider, then probably not..... If the bike belongs to a poor bastard who happens to be damn talented, then I can easily see that claimed bike going home in someone else's rig. This last go around was a fucking disgrace........

Some of the people involved in last year’s debacle are friends and I’m certainly not in the “Anti-Deegan” camp; but, damn…the way the claim went down…or “didn’t”…was disappointing, to me. For all those involved, here’s the problem: Perception…&/or…Appearances…ARE reality. And the reality is…Intimidation and Manipulation were employed to prevent someone from his rightful claim to a bike. That’s how it plays out…in the end. The attempts to attack the character of the claimant and his group are further embarrassments for me and my sport. I’m hopeful that we’ve learned from this, as a community, and the next time this plays...

What's the point of being the fastest if you can't finish a moto? Sorry Moto Verte's test doesn't fully go the same way as the relentless propaganda we've had to endure here for months.

The Stark has failed abysmally to live up to its biggest claim: that is being The Best MX Bike Ever. It cannot get over the first hurdle they set, going the distance. We need to have the Stark Nurembergs. If you want to use Stark's lies about range as a metaphor for the entire EV industry's relentless over-hype, feel free.

You gotta love the eco-friendly biodegradable skid plate that doesn't pollute mother nature should you ever lose it. It truly deserves a marketing BS gimmick award.

Maybe....maybe not. take your chance if you want for me the technology is not mature. This company is brand new in the industry and seems to me like this "new fashion woke eco friendly start up ponzi scheme". But i really hope i am wrong for the people who bought it. Even without any problem 25 to 40 minutes ride is a no go for me....i take my car for sunday riding go to the track, play 2x15 minutes...and after what ?
