t's been a few years since the buzz of an electric dirt bike has made any real waves in
motocross. Alta certainly shook things up and gave us a glimpse of possibility into the
electric world, and events like Red Bull Straight Rhythm really put the bike and that
technology on the map. A few of them still float around local tracks but after the brand ran
out of juice, nothing all that new has come down the pipeline. Yes, Zero, LiveWire, Ener-
gica and a few other niche brands continue to excel in the street scene but nothing in the
off-road space. That is until December 2021 when a new brand, Stark Future, revealed its
race-specific electric motocross bike, the Varg. A few months after the press release, we
attended their global launch just outside of Barcelona, Spain, to ride this new machine.
