There are plenty of ways to prove an electric motorcycle is quick. Stark has apparently decided that simply showing us a fast lap wasn't enough.

Stark has taken its road-legal VARG SM, covered almost everything in black, added the alpha setup, and built just 500 of them.

The biggest news from Stark Future this week isn't a new bike. It's the fact the company is finally making money. The Spanish electric motorcycle manufacturer has reported its first profitable half year, another sign that the business is growing up and building something that could be here for the long haul.

The Stark VARG has gone Factory. And that's a bigger milestone than the new parts list. Rather than unveiling an all-new bike, Stark has done what established motorcycle brands have done for years: refine a proven platform with a higher-spec factory model.

The VARG already has more power than most riders need. Now it’s getting better at putting that power down. Stark has given riders traction control through a free over-the-air update, now owners have a new way to manage the bike’s instant electric mayhem.

Electric bikes came to Erzberg with one question: can they survive the Iron Giant? By the end of the weekend, they didn’t just survive, they finished.

The Stark videos coming out of the Red Bull Erzbergrodeo have definitely grabbed riders' attention. Now it's time to see what the team and the VARG can do when the mountain starts throwing proper punches.

Built around a lightweight chromoly steel chassis, high-voltage battery and proprietary electric powertrain, the VARG combines motocross race-bike geometry with fully adjustable power delivery and one of the most advanced rider electronics packages available. Available in MX, MX Alpha, EX and EX Alpha variants, the platform is designed for everything from closed-course motocross to road-legal enduro riding.

Electric just took a major win in the off-road world. Stark Future has secured the 2026 FIM SuperEnduro Manufacturers World Championship, marking the first time an electric motorcycle brand has claimed the title in the indoor enduro series.
