Battery - Click to view video

The Stark VARG 6kWh battery packs enough capacity to match a full tank of gas on a 450cc. It will comfortably allow up to 6 hours of easy trail riding or complete a full ‘moto’ at MXGP intensity and will fully re-charge between 1-2 hours depending on the charger and outlet. Using a patent-pending lightweight honeycomb magnesium case, the state of the art ‘flying V’ concept connects every cell directly to the casing, achieving efficient cooling and a unique power-to-weight ratio in the motocross world.

Features:

• Air cooled magnesium case.
• Patent-pending honeycomb-structure.
• Slippery fingers cell holders.
• Patent pending pressure relief system. That makes it IP69K waterproof.
• Flying V scheme in order to accomplish a very optimized center of gravity, providing you with very agile handling.
• The range is similar to a full tank of gas on a 450. Easily accomplishing a full heat in MXGP, or over 6 hours of trail riding.
• Full re-charge in 1-2 hours depending on the charger and outlet.

Carbon fibre sleeve heart - Click to view video

The Stark VARG houses the most potent power-to-weight motor of any production motocross bike. Developed and made in Europe, our carbon fiber sleeve motor runs on 360 nominal voltage, churning out 80hp and 9hp per kilogram. It also delivers an incredible 275 Nm of torque on the counter shaft and 938 Nm on the rear wheel. It is designed and optimized to use more than 95% efficiency over the majority of the power range and benefits from a water-cooled aluminum casing that works as a structural part of the chassis. The inverter is also integrated into the motor case in order to reduce mass and simplify the cooling process.

Features:

• Stark Future invented the world’s smallest inverter for 50-100kW power ranges with patent-pending technology.
• Water cooled motor case that forms part of the structural frame to minimize weight and volume.
• Advanced processor power for algorithms to ensure reliability and safety.
• 30% more peak power than a 450cc. 80hp and 938 Nm of torque on the rear wheel.
• Highest power-to-weight ratio in the motorcycle industry.
• Motor weighs only 9 kg.

Chassis - Click to view video

In development we carefully tested and analyzed the current best-performing motocross bikes. This methodology empowered us to craft a chassis that provides the ideal amount of vertical, lateral, and torsional flex in order to enable a predictable, stable, and comfortable ride. The Stark VARG features a low and optimized center of gravity very close to the riders lower leg position. By having the center of gravity closer to you the actual weight will feel much lighter.

The optimized weight distribution provides agility and a featherweight riding sensation. Ideas and experience from our engineers and designers as well as input from respected motorcycle designer Tony Foale allowed the team to produce the ultralight tubular chromoly steel structure. Maintaining the best flex and strength properties, the Stark VARG has the world’s lightest motocross frame: less than 6 kg on the scales.

Features:

• Stark VARG has the world’s lightest motocross frame.
• The aluminum subframe uses straight tubular pipes and forged connections for the best compromise between weight, strength and resistance.
• Integrated forged and machined lift handles, to reinforce the construction and provide a very comfortable and practical handle for lifting and positioning the bike.
• Mid-mount linkage bracket on the swingarm permits a boost of 60mm ground clearance compared to competitors.
• Advanced aluminum manufacturing for the swingarm means even more weight savings compared to competitors.
• Carbon fiber front subframe to contain the front spoiler assembly and seat unit, streamlining ergonomics without unnecessary or unwanted flex. This also serves as a funnel to direct airflow to the battery, motor and radiator located under the seat.
• 7075 T6 forged and CNC machined aluminum triple clamps with a superb weight-to-strength ratio and optimized flex characteristics.

Design and Bodywork - Click to view video

Saying ‘goodbye’ to components such as the front radiator and the exhaust allows the ergonomics of the Stark VARG to be chiseled to perfection. We have designed and engineered the bodywork to give you the best handling and control, enabling you to ride longer, with less effort.

We define our design language as ‘Performance, human art’. The performance aspect refers to the honest design with visibly optimized engineering. Human art, our ambition to create a natural, organic muscular shape, defining ‘muscle, tension and flow’. Our desire was not only to make the VARG fast, but also beautiful.

• Design language defined as ‘Performance, human art’.
• Removal of front radiators & exhaust.
• Optimized ergonomics — chiseled to perfection.
• Better handling and control, longer riding, with less effort.
• Hexagonal pattern inside bodywork, 15% weight saving.
• Remove bodywork quickly, five bolts in less than a minute — for a detailed clean.
• 24 karat gold ‘Stark Future’ logo on the carbon fiber top section symbolizes the full circle mentality of the company as well as our desire to become number

Display and Phone APP - Click to view video

Through the Stark VARG APP we offer you a 100 % customizable ride. The unique display of the Stark VARG is a shock resistant and waterproof Android phone, the “Stark VARG Phone”. When locked into place it charges and communicates wirelessly, whilst serving exclusively as the bike display and when unclicked by the press of a button it is a fully functioning smartphone.

In the Stark VARG APP we let you adjust the power curve, engine braking and virtual flywheel effect, as well as traction control. You can build more than 100 different ride modes, and choose to have five of those actively available on your bike at the same time. Change instantly through these five modes at the touch of a button on your handlebar. Build your ride modes to perform like a 125cc 2-stroke, 450cc 4-stroke or anything in between.

Features:

• The Stark VARG APP is available on the Stark VARG Phone or any Android or iOS device.
• You can easily transfer the information from your Stark VARG Phone to any other smartphone, where you can update the ride modes or analyze your riding data. This includes lap times, map data, speed, G-force, airtime and power consumption.

Revolutionary Skid Plate - Click to view video

Revolutionary light skid plate featuring a low-density foam for high impact absorption. The skid plate acts as a shield for the powertrain whilst also helping to protect the rider.

When casing a jump the impact absorption foam drastically reduces the impact on the rider’s ankles over a traditional frame, as the foam will absorb the impact while the traditional frame stays stiff.

The patent-pending ‘floating’ skid plate also enables vast weight savings by removing the need for a lower frame.

Worlds lightest Foot pegs - Click to view video

The foot pegs have been casted and machined from a special stainless steel: a rust-free material that has 40% higher yield strength than titanium or chromoly steel. This has enabled us to produce a foot peg that is lighter than the titanium units currently used in the market and in racing, whilst being 20% stronger than the market OEM references. The foot peg design is a fine example of how we challenge the industry and improve the riding experience.
