All

I rode one a Briarcliff a couple weeks ago. I only got to ride it in the field but it was SWEET! I had it on the 4th map and was at a high rate speed and it still pulled a wheelie with my fat 230lb ass on it. The guys I rode had a hand brake system on it and took the foot brake off. It just felt smooth and I think its even cooler that he doesn't have to worry about anything with his feet now lol I could see myself owning one in a couple years

There was a new mx track proposal here in WA, made it through all kinds of permitting, then ultimately was shut down by the greenies on appeal. Their biggest issue was noise. I'd like to see the owners resubmit the plans as an electric only mx track.

The Alta will out-turn any Yamaha right out of the box. I also don’t see where you’re getting that you need to buy a bunch of stuff to make the bike rideable, there was nothing grossely out of whack with the bike I test rode that I don’t think could be fixed with sag and clickers. I might want some different bars or something, but I’m kind of tall and that’s just par for the course. If you want to have an unpopular opinion that’s fine, but making things up isn’t an opinion.

Such fun to watch Alta chip away at the non-believers. But they are just chipping away, not mass converting. As been said for years: "E-bikes (or E-Anything) are just a couple of technical advances to be totally mainstream".

I bought a new 2019 KTM 350 XC-F. In a way, I hope it is my last ICE bike. When the Alta can finish a 2 hour Hare Scrambles/GNCC race, I'm buying one. I would've bought one now, but Alta admits it won't quite make it in map 2. I am looking for about 10 acres semi-close to town, so being able to ride on my property without offending neighbors is HUGE for me. The Alta will make this possible I hope in the next few years... I might agree that a clutch could be helpful when negotiating some trail...

That was my fear about sleeping with fat chicks and listening to Britney Spears, but hey, if everybody else is, why not!

Let me just express my disappointment that an American manufacturer is providing a solid product to riders that is a unique alternative to anything else on the market. I'm especially pissed that they're making a solid effort to support races that allow them to compete and continually taking in feedback from riders and their experiences at the races to further improve their product. What's worse, they're even putting out entertaining content and taking a unique approach to marketing. Those ass holes, how do they even sleep at night knowing how much they support moto and off-road and how awesome of...

I have no problem with the OP talking about the ALTA. If you don't like it, don't click on it.

Think there is a lot of us like that, thankfully tech moves really fast these days

I have 20 hours on my 2018 MXR, I think I would do it again. I got the MXR back to ride on property that I have a track, so I could ride as much as I want and not have annoy neighbors. Here are the positives: Handles as good as any bike I have ridden, can get an inside corner after jump easier than my 2017 250sx or 350 xcf Only notice the weight when lifting on the stand. So easy to hit a jump out of corner, always in perfect gear and never have to shift. The bike...

I rode one last weekend at a demo. They only gave you one lap, but it only took a couple turns to not notice the lack of clutch. I hit everything in that one lap that I'd been hitting on my 350. One lap initial impressions: Felt top heavy at first when rolling onto track, but after stuffing it into a couple corners, it felt lighter the harder you rode it. I only did the lap in level 3, and totally forgot about level 4. Fun bike, and the torque is unreal coming off a 350. Wish I would have...

So everyone seems to say the same thing, and it's not about the powerplant! Best handling bike they've ever rode. Feels light. Who would have thought that?

Love the look. Nice bike!!

Thats not exactly true. It would be best practice to NOT run a lithium ion completely down. The software in the bike is supposed to keep the battery in a safe range so when it’s “dead” it’s not really dead anyway. So the short answer is charging between motos is not supposed to be detrimental in any way to the battery.

You’re going to hate it more when one comes quietly by you and just don’t get behind it.
