Our first experience with a Stark Varg came back in May 2022, riding the Varg MX in Barcelona. At the time, it felt like a glimpse into the future, fast, quiet, and completely different to anything else in the paddock.

Now, a few years on, that future has arrived in enduro form with the Stark Varg EX, and we have one from Stark Australia to try out in our own backyard.

Electric dirtbikes have been talking points for years, but very few have landed with the intent to be ridden often and ridden properly. The goal with this Stark Varg EX is simple: ride it as much as possible, see what it’s truly capable of, explore the doors it opens, and work out just how much fun an electric enduro bike can actually be.

From the first interaction, the Varg challenges everything you’re used to. No clutch. No gearbox. Near silence. Instant power delivery. Add in options like a hand brake rear brake, selectable power outputs, and tyre choices straight from purchase, and it’s clear this bike is designed to be personalised rather than tolerated.

The first impression video dives into those early experiences. Learning the controls, adapting muscle memory, discovering what works, what surprises you, and what genuinely puts a smile on your face. It’s honest, a little self-aware, and focused on riding feel rather than theory.

If you’re curious about electric dirtbikes, considering a Stark Varg EX, or simply want to understand how different this bike really is, the full Always Moto first impression video is live now.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll go deeper with setup changes, real-world riding, maintenance, and performance-focused content to see where the Stark Varg EX truly fits in the off-road world.

To learn more about the Stark Varg EX, visit starkfuture.com, or head into your local Stark dealer for a closer look and a proper conversation.

And as always… we’ll see you at the track.
