    That Varg wasn’t just keeping up dude, it was leading the way. Stunning. Although I reckon it has a little bit to do with the rider 😉 another great vid Matt.

    Vargs are next level good in hard enduro . So many people think you need a clutch but I find I can hop over anything just as easy without it and so much better not having to manage engine revs .

    I feel like Matt’s been wrestling the busa dirt bike for so long, that the varg weighs nothing

  • @artblakey4159
    @artblakey4159 Місяць тому +18

    Rideabily/traction is often related to the rate of change of the torque curve, not the amount if torque itself. While modern two strokes are much improved over those "back in the day", here we see that metric is so hard to control on the gas machines when compared to the linear torque delivery of the properly controlled electric motor.

    Vargs are next level good in hard enduro . So many people think you need a clutch but I find I can hop over anything just as easy without it and so much better not having to manage engine revs . Pretty cool that the varg was competitive in dune drags against a mod 450 and busa but can be smooth enough to crawl shale hills

    @nymetsfan912 29 днів тому

    The varg is unstoppable! It’s scary to see it outperform these 2-strokes on the trails. I can’t go without the sound and smell of the 2-stroke engines though. May they live on forever!

  • @Davedynamite
    @Davedynamite Місяць тому

    yea, i would think having a electic dirt bike for this type of riding would be useful, as you have full power once you crack the throttleand its probably lighter. as with the dirtbike your having to keep it from stalling while trying to spool up power. you got lots of balls dude

  • @pnum9618
    @pnum9618 4 дні тому

    on super gnarly uphill terrain the Stark is a hands down winner on any terrain its just as good the only minus is the weight and thats just a matter of time

  • @JacobAnawalt
    @JacobAnawalt Місяць тому

    That low end torque. Dang! And the battery life seems more than adequate for a day ride. A reasonable 2-stroke replacement in some use cases. I've got to look up specs on weight, and it would be interested to see the whole group ride it and see how it is for different experience levels.

    • @Ozfreerider_adventures
      @Ozfreerider_adventures Місяць тому +1

      The traction on vargs has to be experienced to be believed . The control over power delivery is un matched. I can have my bike on the stand and turn back wheel so slow that it’s barely moving and gradually spin it up from that to max speed with full control . Gas bike you have to deal with changing torque curve , clutching and gear changes it’s a lot to deal with

    It looked like you were riding on a magical elevator going up that boss obstacle. You have insanely good control on that bike. I like rough trails too but my definition of a rough trail is different than yours. The Elephant Hill trail near Moab is rough for me. You could do that one with one hand I think.
