Glad this video wasn't too shocking! I had to throw in some electric humor! Great video again!

You can find rubber bypass plugs at the auto parts store that would fit in there perfect. They are shaped similar to a thimble but rubber and various sizes. So you can trim to right height and the will go around the bolt.

If it was me, Id also stick a little bit of water proof grease in there too, incase water gets trapped in there.

You could use a can of electrical clean on those recessed bolts, that way if there is any ingress it won’t matter too much. Although I doubt you’ll have any issues around gaskets. If it’s anything like the SX-E5 you don’t want to put a lot of pressure around the front sprocket, you get ingress around the bearing which gets into the main board

Best option would be, reach out to a company that makes a "bike wash" and ask them to be your sponsor. Since you have the hottest Ticket on the intranets.

That thing drastically needs a graphics kit. Damn it doesnt even have KYB stickers

Hello loving this series of videos on this new bike. Excited to see the future of mx but also a little sad I can’t imagine going to an event and not hearing that roaring engine sound. Bike needs some race numbers and a graphics kit and some sponsors stickers on it.

@@williamcrotts7054 lol yes it’s ironic that they will need to burn fossil fuel to charge at the tracks. Will be even better if they use 2 stroke generator’s. Miss that smell.

Electrical parts cleaner or mass flow sensor cleaner type spray? Then some silicon spray to keep it moving smoothly. Thanks for the video.

Stark recommends USING A PRESSURE WASHER

Maybe some contact cleaner for the phone mount

I am a 6’5 tall 330lbs pound man do you think my size is a good fit for this bike? I ride an 04 kx 500 and kx 450 now.

Did you go with MX wheels or Enduro? Why did you choose what you chose? Mine is due to arrive in December so I still have time to change my order. My KTM Freeride is 18" and has the biggest widest I could fit. I don't ride MX tracks so I'm thinking 18" is best.

I NEVER use a pressure washer!

I say it depends on the tip you have on the nozzle

U can really see that they have to protect some things a little better. I don’t know about the phone mount… it’s the worst desicion

some compressed air would nice in some areas of that bike

I have used high pressure for three decades have never had any issues… and the Varg will not be any exception.. mainly do not go to close with the nozzle and do not use any alkaline cleaner containing sodium or potassium hydroxide.. check that on the label or MSDS, or dip a piece of aluminum foil in the liquid, you will find corrosive marks on the surface use Sodium metasilicates based products then you are safe, and don’t let any alkaline cleaning solution drying out on your bike…..

Couldn't you just use a air hose to clean out phone area?

is that a same size with a 125cc dirt bike ? shorter our tall ?

About the same as every electric dirt bike I've owned 👍 good to know! The only 2 thing I think could be better is: 1. Like you said, those screws holes that collect dirt and... 2. The front - an area that is absolutely going to get covered in mud and dirt - having a gasket right there so you can't pressure wash it. Hopefully there's a plastic cover or something for that area by the time I get my Varg.

The guard for the front to collect all the mud and dirt that CAN be washed is exactly what I was thinking too. It is ALWAYS going to collect there, so you have to be able to wash it. Good video

Just use a hose, not a pressure washer.

simple green will etch your aluminum over time, never leave it sitting on your bike. Simple Green is caustic and corrosive. Best practice is not to use that Garbage on your new Electric bike EVER ! Alco Dirt Bike and ATV Wash is a good option. saving 18$ on bike soap is not worth corroding your 12K new bike over.

Ive been using simple green diluted in 2.5gallons of water for many years on multiple bikes with no issues. The trick is to not leave it sitting for too long, only 5-10minutes tops, and then rinse thoroughly.
