Here is the long version of the review of the Stark Varg MX bike.  

Good

• It's really great on the MX track - Love how smooth the power is and how easy it is to ride there.  
• It's so great that you can dial in the exact amount of power that you want. That is a game changer
• High-speed hill climb bike - it's amazing (not great slow speeds)
• Love that you are always in the right "gear" because there are no gears.  Always right in the power 
• Fastest bike I've ever been on  - and it's stable at speed - it feels really planted
• The range on the bike has gotten better with updates
• Over-the-air updates are cool; got reverse and forward crawl modes - 
• Brakes are great
• Forks are great for desert and MX tracks

Bad

• Feels heavy when you have to lift the bike - both off-ground and on stands
• Worst traction on loose, slow climbs - not great in the tight single-track
• Really sucks the power fast as the track gets lines into it 
• The range for single-track
• No Clutch
• The kickstand is annoying. 
• The charging cable is too short.

Let's have a chat about maintenance items.  Nobody tells you that if you want to ride dirt bikes you need to also become a mechanic at at least some level, but it's true.  The more things you can do at home in your garage, the more you will ride, the more money you will save, and the better your overall experience is going to be.  But there are some things that I won't (or just don't often) do at home.  Hope you enjoy.

Thank you so much to Yamaha for inviting me and my son Konnor out to South Carolina for the press event they put on for the YZ450FX, YZ250X, and YZ125X.  What follows is more the experience we had and my thoughts on Yamaha and these bikes in general.  Hope you like it!
