This could make a seriously killer snow bike if it had any range, which it doesn’t. The 80hp and 242 ftlb of torque would rip!! Another site says it’s only 203 ftlb torque, still more than any sled on the market.
Local slc bike dealer just got them. Maybe an extra battery pack?

Have you actually put eyes on one?

If there was one for sale at a dealer I probably would have to take it home with me.

I’m having a blast running mtn bike trails with my modified Sur ron.

Electric torque is so nice.

Which shop? Mine isn’t supposed to arrive until next April. I ordered a bit late. As far as range- im hoping switching between maps will help out. .

The Edge Powersports in Salt Lake City had them up on their website. Will go in after work today and see if they actually have any at the shop. Even if they have some, probably all presold

The way the battery is built on these it is very integrated into the bike. One of the reasons they were able to get the weight down. So I don't think a hot swap battery pack is feasible yet. Dealer here isn't getting any for a while. Media just got to do limited rides on pre-production units over in Europe. One commented that some of the bodywork was 3D printed still.

Ya. That’s what I’m thinking. Media just rode those bikes a couple weeks ago and there were only five pre-production of the 60 hp version. Didn’t even have the 80 hp version available to ride yet.

Let us know if you get a chance to stop by.

I was told that Varg is sending them a couple “show room” demo bikes in September and they will have on hand for a day or two. These bikes will be passed around from dealer to dealer for customers to come in a see the bike, not demo ride bikes. Sometime around Christmas they are supposed to get 2 demo bikes which they (the dealer) will use to let people ride. Production bikes are a year out. That’s what they are being told. How it really shakes out, who the hell knows with the current supply chain issues. I did reserve one, for a $100 deposit, why not.

Awesome. Thanks! That’s about what I figured. Can’t wait to see one in person. Ya…100 bucks was kinda a no brainer. If i don’t have 14 g’s in the rabbit hole after a year then I’m only out 100 bucks.
