Stark asked me to test their Varg EX.

He's 80 horsepower. He knows it. I've been railroaded in to test riding. What is this thing? A Stark Enduro bike. Starkvag EX. 35 horsepower please and not one iota more. That's 35 horsepower. Are you sure? Positive. Okay. So I'll put it in neutral for you. And I'll put it into map one. Okay. Oh, look at that. That looks aggressive. Okay. What's going to happen here? There's no gears. There's no brake. So that's rear brake. Holy. Okay. Oh, here we go. Wow. Bizarre. Carson's right on me. Can't even dust his engine. Wow. The suspension is good. I think it's like... I got to get used to this rear brake. I'm not even touching brakes. I've got to go into mountain bike mode. Oh, this is weird. I'm reaching for a rear foot brake. Mountain bike mode. Mountain bike mode. Actually, this is cool. Just leave my feet in one position. Leave it there. He's right on. This is interesting. It's pretty good. The handling is supreme. Whoa. Good suspension. I hit a kicker I did not even see and it just took it. All right. We're coming up. We're doing a stealth attack on a punter. Carson's right with me. This guy doesn't even know we're here. On his Sherco. Smell the fuel. I won't scare him. Oh, he's on husky. I went to click a gear. I've got to get... I keep reaching for the rear brake with my right foot. It's not there. Here he is. Geez, the suspension is good. I mean, it's KYB. End of story. But the chassis is working. I love that it's doing dirt bike things. They handle so good. It's like a 125. Carson is right on me. I don't even know how much these things weigh, but it feels like it weighs nothing. That was cool. That is cool. I can't believe how good they handle. Like, 125 level handle. Oh yeah. I don't know how much they weigh, but... They're not on the light side, but all that weight's down low. Yeah, it doesn't feel like it weighs anything. To be fair, you're running 125 power. Yeah, good. You want to up it up a bit? At the paddock we'll have a little bit. Go to number three. Come on. What? Not now. No, no, no. Map three. You'll see it. Oh, okay. Map three's there. All right, so I'm in map two. Yeah, so if you just hit the button now. Bottom one. Yeah, I'm in map two. So that's map two. So that's 60. Oh, it just boosts. F***ing hell. It's like a full-on works 450. That's bizarre. Far out. Such an interesting thing to be riding. Really trying to... You know, it's like I'm on my mountain bike, but I'm not. I'm on my motorbike, but it's my mountain bike. It's messing with my brain a bit. It's crazy f***ing engine. Whoa, it's just hyper acceleration. That's only 60. You can throw another 20 on this f***ing thing. Unbelievable. I think Carson's in 80 horsepower. I'm just going to see if I can blow him off. He's 80 horsepower. He knows it. Wow, these things are fast. Like violently fast. I don't even want to know what 80 horsepower is like. Wow, that's interesting. Didn't know how that was going to go, but it went quite well. I just love how plush it is, and there's no... There's such a different effect. There's the torque effect on the chain. Something's going on. It drives like a 450, but the rear wheel tracks like a 250F. It just flutters over the ground. I don't... It's a lot to process. You can't even give it like hero blips when you come in, because it'll just lurch. This is the f***ing future. Wow, no, it's really wild. It's like riding my mountain bike and my motorbike blended together. My brain's like, there's no rear brake. There's no gears. It's violently fast. I don't even want to know what 80 horsepower is like, but I did because we got out onto the paddock, and I know he's in 80. I thought I'll just try it on here, and he just one-handed, and this thing was just like works 450 f***ing off anyway, and he just still went faster. Yeah, yeah, totally. No, it's... You can flip the thing out from under you until you know what's going on, but they handle so good. They've got the right suspension package, and I just like that it does dirt bike things. It really does react, and kick, and buck, and skip. See when I hit that kicker in the shadows, like just not far in there, and just send it itself, and business as usual. Brilliant. Yeah, I mean, I had a quick go on a motocross one in France on a motocross track, and that was real choppy, hard pack, sketchy terrain, and I just said, give me the lowest horsepower, and I enjoyed it then, but holy s***, this is a better version of the bike because of, I don't know, just the way it is, that plushness of it, the headlight, like I don't, I'm not gonna rush out and buy one, but it's really bloody good. Good. There's no question. That's what we want to hear. Yeah.
