    Very balanced and real world perspective. To be honest you really looked at home on it, I could see you were enjoying it. I nearly ordered one when they first opened for orders but I've given up the dirtbikes now. I wish either they'd turned up a few years earlier or I'd be born later! Hope to see you on it again in future...

    That is the best video on the stark i have watched. And ive watched alot. A true racer that we can relate to. Could see your confidence in the bike straight away. Well done for your honest opinion. Merry Christmas to you and your good lady. And look forward to watching your videos in 2024 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    They are the future for sure. Internal combustion bikes will always be around , I don’t think the moto population want them to go away. These open up so many options for riding in areas where noise concerns with IC bikes keep them out of those area’s. Like some of the other comments , you look real comfortable on the bike. 👍

    Nice work Joel. You're the first person I've seen that's taken the time to really set one up and then look like they're flowing on it. Couple of people said they felt they were nose light on jumps which unsettled them but you didn't look like that was a problem for you at all. Glad you had fun.

    Thanks mate, I found the biggest thing with jumping was finding the right Regenerative Braking setting. I started at 80% which made the front heavy and dive on jumps so I dropped it down to 50% by the end and found that was good for me 🤙🏻

    Yeh mate, I have been running a couple demo days with Brisbane Motorcycles and haven’t had any bad words yet! I am waiting for someone who doesn’t like it haha Where are you based mate? I think the 60hp is 18k and the 80hp is 19k but the wait time if you go through a dealer isn’t too bad. If you go through Brisbane Motorcycles they are expecting their first batch in January. If you are local to the SEQ send me a message on socials and we can organise a demo ride 👍

    They need a way to swap batteries out at the track. These bike may not take over but they are definitely not going anywhere….everyone enjoys riding them.

    You’ve lost a plot, this bike maxes out at 88hp. It’s a complete monster and could smoke any 450 at any time. Literally the only downside to this bike is the range (if ran in a proper race)

    @@TalariaDawg There is video here on yt. It shows the varf on a mx track, with a steep hill maybe 200'. The varg slows to a crawl, the blender sound boggs down to powerwheel status. It was slower than a 250 4t. What a joke varg is, eventually customers will expose this rip off. Right now it's nothing but shills and commercials. Not one real example of the varg in the real world on the web. Lets see it run the 1/4 mile against a any mx /x 450..

    @@Dat_Sun I borrowed a Stark Varg for 2 days last weekend. We rode it 38 miles on fast trails as well as a woods MX track. I have a 2023 Husqvarna 450 and this Varg kept up with my 450 down the back straight...and the Varg was set at 40hp. They're fast, very fast. Thats a real world test from a average guy. Set at 60hp its the fastest dirt bike I've ever ridden. I turned it down to 45hp.

    @@japandrz Nice story. I don't believe it but cool man. You have to understand for over a 100 years it's been the same BS lies from ev nerds. It's really stepped up recently thanks to an increase in available tax cattle funding for anything originating from China powered by batteries. Originating doesn't mean made in China, but it essentially is. There is plenty of 'people" saying it's so powerful and awesome, but the examples shown are exactly the opposite. How about a real example down the quarter mile? Or an extended hill climb, better yet show it winning at in real competition, not propaganda acting short shifting 4 stroke riders making the powerwheel look better.
