That was up here at "The One" show. It was cool to see it up close, the carbon wheels were pimp.
2017 seems about right. It was at the Portland "The One" show a while back.Haven't logged on to RM in years, but must have felt a disturbance in the force.
Surprised to see that blue bike (the "ST Concept") back in one piece. @jimmydean is that a recent pic, or all the way back from 2017?
I thought Derek (our CTO) had half the parts and Dale (our lead race tech) had the other half. Glad someone ended up with the whole thing...
That looks like a teeny battery... wouldn't expect much from it. Personally, I'd wait for https://fluxmoto.co/ to bring their production bike to market. It doesn't look like much online, but they're the real deal. I'd hold of on a Stark until they shake out the gremlins.Oooh, this looks good.

Lol, I miss this place. Between shutting down Alta, COVID hitting, and 4 wrist surgeries in the last 2 years I've been off bikes and motos for too long. Just got back on my (road) bike for the first time on Tuesday, and my wrist seemed okay-ish. Cautiously hopeful I'll be back on the real bike in the coming months.Holy shit! @ohio sighting.
Right now the Ultra Bee checks a lot of boxes. The Varg is way overkill, as will the Flux. But should my Lotto hit soon, that could change. But there seems to be a lot coming to market.That looks like a teeny battery... wouldn't expect much from it. Personally, I'd wait for https://fluxmoto.co/ to bring their production bike to market.

Poor. I feel poor. If had been able to get out from under Harley's bear hug to hold on for 12-18 more months, we would have SPAC'd at $3-4B.How do you feel about having a bike 10 years too early? The Redshift is still the industry standard and is still tops.
Yup, these are the dudes to watch. That's just their test mule and it's already the fastest and longest range eMX ever built.
now that I am living at the dunes the electric rigs make me giggle after watching the local crew burn up a couple hours with a paddle. Good to see ya doing well and moving forward man.Poor.

Thanks for the kind words about the bike. The whole team and I are pretty proud of the bikes and the legacy. I'm hoping the guys at Flux can pick up the baton and finish what we started. There wasn't anything fundamentally wrong with the strategy, the tech, or the product - we were just too early to raise the funds really needed. VCs didn't believe we were doing what we were actually doing, and that left us very fragile. Didn't take much for an 800lb gorilla to squash us.
FWIW, if we'd survived another 12 months, the Redshift mk2 was gonna be $12k, 250lbs, 60+hp, and have a real world 65mi trail range (enough to complete a true pro outdoor MX). 50% more battery while dropping 18lbs of weight. Would have fucking crushed KTMs.

Beware the water pump. Definitely the weak link on those bikes. I had to replace mine twice. It should be easy but there is one rigid oil line in the way and it SUCKS to get that thing out. See if you can get one of these or have an equivalent built for you. Have it on hand for when the pump shits the bed so you can replace the line at the same time. You, or whomever your mechanic is, will thank me later.Looks like I'm a motorbike owner again.
I just purchased a 2002 BMW F650GS
One owner from new, really well looked after, Heated grips, Scott oiler, 12v power output and racks fitted (comes with a selection of 4 Ventura bags of varying sizes).

Like lane splitting laws in Montana, Utah, and Arizona, Colorado is not giving motorcyclists complete free rein to dive between lanes of traffic wherever they please or at any speed. Colorado's new law joins Utah in being particularly restrictive, as it limits lane splitting to areas of traffic at a standstill or up to speeds of 15 mph. The law also states that the road must be wide enough for a motorcycle to comfortably pass between two vehicles, though it doesn't define an appropriate width.
Looks like a normal day of riding to me
