    I'm fine with both bikes as well. My concern is really the government. There is too much of a push for electric which looks bad for the future of gas powered anything. I won't go into battle of pros and cons, I just want a choice of what I ride, drive and use.

      When you are charging electric with diesel generator you are lost in the sauce. Renewable fuels sound great but take 1000 times the energy to make, so more lost sauce.

      When Musk makes a 5+ hr battery... bring on an electric bike for trail riding. Super efficient shaft drive would be welcome also (would rather not have to tighten & lube chains anymore, besides doing filters).

    LOL you guys are way over complicating a sound output🤣🤣You are making more of a problem out of it them making a solution. Do you know how simple it is for a sound output for an E bike if people think that's the reason they shouldn't race together?🤦‍♂🤦‍♂🤦‍♂. The biggest thing the MX community is totally afraid of and why the sport lags behind so many others is because of fear of change. ICE bikes go through sound check for max output so all you have to do is add a minimum output for E bikes. This is simply a selectable setting and gives you the best of both worlds on a product. There are bunches of riders that race with ear plugs in to block out the ICE noise anyways. There is currently no government regulation(s) for E bikes. That is a fake narrative created by many. E bikes are currently being sold simply by consumer demand and growth areas of the sport that ICE bikes currently can't fill. It's an addition not a replacement. The topic of E bikes really brings out the uneducated in the sport for sure. Most have no education on it so all they talk about is politics, gender and all sorts of other 100% irrelevant things instead of the growth of the sport. Now does that mean everyone has to buy one and it is for everyone? Absolutely not just like there is currently not one ICE bike that does everything well there is also not one E bike currently made that does everything well.

    The non riding public hates the sound of our bikes more than everything. They say it's erosion and pollution, but bottom line is out of sight/sound out of mind. Electric/quiet could greatly help stop or slow the one way slide of us getting banned everywhere. I see it happening everywhere, one riding area at a time. If they can't hear us they won't care about us. A 60 hp 450 is louder than a 500 hp car, and I know why, but it's still stupid.

  • @natel7382

    I like electric, my problem is they are saying its for the environment but using a diesel generator to power the charging. It makes zero sense. Also the renewable fuels sound good until you see it take 1000 times more energy to make these fuels so they arent renewing anything. Like e85. Look into it. We cant frack for the same reasoning.
    Fossil fuels arent going anywhere. The cost is deternined by the amount left. If they admitted peak oil is madeup the price would plummet. Yea sounds a little tinfoil hat but only 20% of the ocean has been mapped. We just dont know. But you ask an oil man how much they will give you a definitive answer. Our arrogance is annoyong. The long answer we dont know but they will never admit that.

    A stock Stark Varg is better than a 450 is most ways. I don't care about the "sustainability", whatever that means, it's some weird religion, but I'm sick of all the maintenance of dirt bikes and the fact that after several years of riding they are basically not worth rebuilding. I'm not convinced that a Stark is any more expensive in the long run than a YZ450 or definitely any of the KTM brand bikes, which are $$$ to buy, uncork, and maintain. I don't care what the fans want, supercross can worry about that. Motocross and dirt bike riding are about riding. If everyone is on electric bikes you'll be able to hear, and you won't need earplugs to keep your hearing.
