design

Saying ‘goodbye’ to components such as the front radiator and the exhaust allows the ergonomics of the Stark VARG to be chiseled to perfection. We have designed and engineered the bodywork to give you the best handling and control, enabling you to ride longer, with less effort.

We define our design language as “Performance, Human art”. The performance aspect refers to the honest design with visibly optimized engineering. Human art, our ambition to create a natural, organic and muscular shape, defining “muscle, tension and flow”. Our desire was not only to make the VARG fast, but also beautiful.

powertrain

The VARG houses the most potent power-to-weight ratio motor of any production motocross bike. Our carbon fiber sleeve motor runs on 360 nominal voltage, churning out 80hp and 9hp per kilogram. It delivers an incredible 275 Nm of torque on the counter shaft and 1036 Nm on the rear wheel. The motor is designed and optimized to use more than 95% efficiency over the majority of the power range and benefits from a water-cooled aluminum casing that doubles as a structural part of the chassis. The inverter is integrated into the motor case in order to reduce mass and simplify the cooling process.

Stark Future invented the world's smallest inverter for 50-100kW power ranges with patent-pending technology.
Water cooled motor case that forms part of the structural chassis to minimize weight and volume.
Advanced processor power for algorithms to ensure reliability and safety.

chassis

During the VARG MX development we carefully benchmarked and analyzed the current best-performing motocross bikes and used some of the best athletes in the world for real life testing. This methodology led us to craft a chassis that provides the ideal amount of vertical, lateral, and torsional flex to give a predictable, stable, and comfortable ride. For the VARG SM we took this knowledge and tweaked the geometry for supermoto specific usage by changing the offset, suspension length, spring rate, travel and valving to achieve the perfect balance between comfort and performance.

The Stark VARG features a low, optimized center of gravity near the rider's lower leg position, making the bike feel significantly lighter and more agile. This design ensures optimal weight distribution, delivering an unmatched featherweight riding experience. Drawing on expertise from engineers, designers, and renowned motorcycle designer Tony Foale, the team developed an ultralight tubular chromoly steel frame. Balancing exceptional flex and strength, this frame is the lightest motocross frame in the world, weighing only 6,5 kg.

The VARG SM uses the same frame as the VARG MX1.2 -the world’s lightest motocross frame. The aluminum subframe uses straight tubular pipes and forged connections for the best compromise between weight, strength and resistance. Integrated forged and machined lift handles, to reinforce the construction and provide a very comfortable and practical handle for lifting and positioning the bike. Mid-mount linkage bracket on the swingarm permits a boost of 60mm ground clearance compared to competitors. Advanced aluminum casting technology of the swingarm means even more weight savings compared to competitors.

Carbon fiber front subframe to contain the front spoiler assembly and seat unit, streamlining ergonomics without unnecessary or unwanted flex. This also serves as a funnel to direct airflow to the battery, motor and radiator located under the seat. 7075 T6 forged and CNC machined aluminum triple clamps with a superb weight-to-strength ratio and optimized flex characteristics.

suspension

Experience the sensation of ultimate grip and control —the VARG SM Kayaba suspension was developed together with the experts at Technical Touch and put to the test on track to give you the best out-of-the box suspension on the market.

Boasting 290 mm of front travel and 303 mm of rear travel, with a linkage progression curve optimized for stability and comfort, you can expect perfect traction and a plush ride.

With 3 stock settings available you can select a suspension tailored to your weight and skill level, ensuring a bike perfectly suited to your riding style and weight. For faster riders, opt for one setting higher, while amateurs may prefer to go lower. Additionally, the VARG’s specific linkage mount provides an impressive 60 mm of additional ground clearance.

Light Kashima coated outer-tubes and niCr coated inner-tubes for minimising friction and maximum wear resistance.
50 mm rear shock with 16mm niCr coated rod for the same low-friction efficiency and high durability.
Linkage progression curve is optimized for comfort and stability whilst improving traction.
Triple adjuster with low compression and rebound system. 303 mm of suspension travel in the rear as well for a balanced feel.

rear axle

The VARG’s rear axle and swingarm feature two remarkable innovations.

Firstly, an advanced chain adjuster for precise and accurate chain adjustment. The adjuster block incorporates a spring and shaft, which at every 90 degrees rotation gives you an audible click feedback. Using a hex driver you can easily turn the same number of clicks on each side and perfectly align your wheel with optimal chain tension.

Stepping it up another notch we introduced a flush rear axle design that eliminates protruding nuts and bolts that can possibly catch on ruts, dirt or rocks -reducing risk while enhancing your riding experience and handling.

Chain adjuster with clicks enables hassle free adjustment. You no longer need to use two wrenches, simply one hex.
Flush rear axle nut reduces risk of getting caught in ruts

chain and sprockets

The RK MXU UW-ring Gold 520 chain is known for its exceptionally strong and narrow build with the highest tensile strength in the market. A top choice in MXGP and FIM Hard Enduro championships, it shares the sealing solution commonly used in the Moto3™ category of MotoGP™, offering 5% less friction for increased range and performance. Optimized rubber rings reduce vibration and plate friction, while the rear sprocket, machined from 7075 T6 aluminum, ensures the highest possible wear resistance. The front sprocket, forged from hardened steel, boasts an equally long lifespan.

wheels

The VARG features 6082 T6 aluminum fully CNC-machined wheel hubs, ensuring both superior strength and low weight. To complement the hubs we sourced the highest-grade steel spokes while 7050 T6 aluminum aero-grade rims complete the package.

handlebar

The VARG´s handlebar is produced in aerospace spec 7075 T6 aluminum, renowned for its exceptional strength and durability. With a 28.6mm diameter and equipped with soft compound grips it provides optimal stability and control at all times. Conveniently placed within thumbs reach is our proprietary CNC aluminum map switch, allowing you instant access to your favorite power modes. Adding to that we routed the cables internally to protect them and create an ultra clean cockpit area.

charger

The new Portable Charger is included in the purchase of your motorcycle. It comes with a fast-charging plug for a standard 220V power socket and delivers 3.3 kW of charging power enabling a full battery charge in less than 2 hours. An adapter for a 110v socket can be acquired separately. Throw the charger in your backpack and experience the freedom of charging anywhere you want.

footpegs

Cast and machined in a special stainless steel blend, our footpegs offer 40% higher yield strength than titanium or chromoly steel options. Lighter than most aftermarket titanium offerings and 20% stronger than OEM references, they exemplify our commitment to innovation in design and performance.

skidplate

Revolutionary light skid plate featuring a low-density foam for high impact absorption. The skid plate acts as a shield for the powertrain whilst also helping to protect the rider. The foam drastically reduces the impact on the rider’s ankles over a traditional frame, as the foam will absorb impact while the traditional frame stays stiff. The patent-pending ‘floating’ skid plate also enables vast weight savings by removing the need for a lower frame.
