Hello, adventurous urban riders! Introducing the Stark Future Varg SM – an electric supermoto that rides like a hipster on an espresso on the road and like a cat on the couch on the dirt. With 80 horsepower and a battery that lasts about 183 km in the city, it promises a quiet yet playful ride. And yes, you can take the dashboard with you when you park – smart, right?
The Stark Future Varg SM weighs just 124.5 kg (274.5 lbs) and in the alpha version develops 80 hp (approximately 59.7 kW), which is said to be the best power-to-weight ratio of any supermoto on the market. Torque? An incredible 914 Nm (674 lb‑ft) at the rear wheel – acceleration will be as cold as your morning coffee.
Battery and range
The battery has a capacity of 7.2 kWh (magnesium honeycomb), which also serves as a structural element of the chassis – double-layered intelligence! The range is 183 km (113 miles) in the city, 118 km (73 miles) in the countryside and about 81 km (50 miles) according to the WMTC standard. Charging takes less than two hours with a 3.3 kW portable charger that you can put in your backpack and plug into a regular outlet.
Chassis, suspension and brakes
High-strength steel construction with forged aluminum subframe, CNC-machined triple clamp, carbon motor housing with even a built-in inverter – pure engineering poetry. Suspension is by KYB: 48 mm closed cartridge front with 290 mm travel, 303 mm adjustable shock at the rear. Brakes are Brembo: four-stroke radial monobloc caliper with 320 mm floating disc at the front, 220 mm hydraulic disc at the rear.
Dashboard and technology
Instead of a classic meter, here is Arkenstone – A shock- and water-resistant Android smartphone that displays GPS, battery status, range, driving mode and allows OTA updates. Switch between modes with a single touch (Eco, Sport, Off-road, etc.).
Practicality and safety
Fully road-legal in Europe, the US, Australia and NZ, available with an A1 licence or even a standard car licence in some southern European countries. Features: Crawl Mode and reverse for parking, adjustable ride modes, safety layers, optional handbrake system for tricks or the track. Lights? 4,000-lumen headlight, silicone indicators, minimalistic integrated into the license plate holder.
