Stark Future is proud to announce the launch of the Stark VARG EX, a ground-breaking innovation poised to revolutionize the world of Enduro motorcycling. Three years after introducing the motocross game-changer, the Stark VARG MX, Stark Future takes a bold leap forward with its first road-legal motorcycle.
The drivetrain of the Stark VARG EX delivers a stunning 80hp,making it the most powerful Enduro bike on the market. Riders can customize the bike’s performance with options for power delivery, engine braking, and regenerative curves, all adjustable via the handlebar control switch (5 modes available). Whether mimicking the nimbleness of a 125cc two-stroke or the brute power of a 450cc four-stroke, the VARG EX offers unparalleled adaptability.
The 7.2 kWh honeycomb magnesium battery not only powers the bike but also serves as a structural component, contributing to a lightweight and centralized design. The battery delivers a 20% longer range compared to the VARG MX and can be fully recharged in just two hours using the included charging stand. Its energy efficiency and durability set a new benchmark in Enduro engineering.
The VARG EX is more than an off-road marvel—it’s fully road-legal. Riders can legally take it on the streets in countries across Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and parts of the United States.
With A1 license compatibility and even car-license accessibility in Southern Europe, the VARG EX is set to broaden the appeal of Enduro riding. Whether connecting trails, commuting to work, or simply exploring, the VARG EX redefines convenience and accessibility.
Key road-ready features include:
· Patent-pending flexible indicators crafted from durable optical silicone for superior longevity.
· A 4,000-lumen headlamp, three times brighter than any competitor, providing exceptional visibility for night rides.
· A sleek, integrated license plate holder that combines durability with aesthetic precision.”
The VARG EX’s chassis is meticulously crafted from high-strength steel, ensuring optimal vertical and horizontal flex for superior cornering grip and control.
The lightweight carbon-fiber subframe doubles as a cooling funnel for the drivetrain, while the KYB-tuned suspension provides flawless balance and adaptability for both traditional Enduro and extreme riding conditions.
Key engineering highlights include:
· A patented skid plate reinforced with impact-absorbing foam, offering unparalleled durability.
· A chain guide with 266% increased lateral stiffness for unmatched reliability.
· KYB suspension: Closed cartridge forks and triple-adjustable shocks tuned specifically for Enduro, offering 300mm of travel.
· CNC-machined 6082 T6 aluminum hubs, Italian-crafted highgrade steel spokes, and Japanese alloy rims for customizable wheel configurations, including tube or mousse options.
The VARG EX features the revolutionary Stark Arkenstone—a cutting-edge, military-grade Android device integrated into the bike. This navigation and control system allows riders to:
· GPS trail recording and turn-by-turn navigation developed with a leading map provider.
· On-the-go adjustment of power, engine braking, and regeneration settings.
· Community sharing options to upload and follow rider trails
The VARG EX also incorporates a redesigned map switch with waterproof and impact-resistant aluminum housing, routing cables internally for protection against wear. This level of innovation ensures every ride is intuitive, personalized, and fun, whether you’re an experienced rider or just starting your Enduro journey.
The VARG EX offers an unprecedented level of customization, including:
· Titanium upgrades for footpegs, bolts, and shafts to further reduce weight.
· A choice of five different tire options, available with tubes, tubeless setups, or mousse.
· Personalizable Brembo brakes, with flexible placement on the handlebar or footpeg (handlebar fitment included free for U.S. customers)
The bike will be available in two configurations:
· Standard (60hp): AUS 17,900
· Alpha (80hp): AUS 18,900
· Pre-orders are open now, with worldwide shipping beginning in Q1.
Riders can order directly through the Stark Future website or via associated dealers.
