E-motorcycle manufacturer Stark Future recently revealed a pair of limited-edition motorcycles, the Stark Varg MX and EX Factory Editions, two bikes built on an off-road championship-winning platform, the same one that earned a gold medal at the 2026 X Games and stellar finishes at the 2026 Red Bull Erzbergrodeo.
Key features include race-developed suspension, reduced weight, and greater control. At the center of both motocross and enduro limited editions is a complete KYB Factory A-Kit suspension package, supported by titanium components, Dynamic Traction Control, a high-grip seat, and a series of detail refinements.
The Factory Editions will be produced in a single global production run, limited to 200 Varg MX and 300 Varg EX Factory Editions worldwide.
The suspension upgrades, Stark says, are the most significant upgrades on both Factory Editions. The result is more grip, greater precision, and improved control. The motorcycles remain more composed under braking and track the ground more accurately.
Its 3-D-printed and titanium components reduce weight by more than 1 kg, according to the company. The lower mass contributes to quicker direction changes, greater agility, and a more responsive connection between the rider and the motorcycle. The Dynamic Traction Control allows riders to fine-tune rear-wheel grip for different terrain, conditions, and riding styles.
MX Factory Edition MSRP: $15,990
EX Factory Edition MSRP: $16,990
The Barcelona-based electric-motorcycle manufacturer reported revenue of 86 million euros ($99.16 million) for the first half of 2026, up 46% year-over-year, and confirmed the business was both EBITDA- and EBIT-positive for the period.
EBITDA reached 5.3 million euros ($6.11 million), a 6.1% margin, compared with a 1.7 million euros ($1.96 million) loss during the same period last year. Gross margin improved 9.3 percentage points year-over-year to 39.6%, with per-unit bike costs falling as volumes scaled.
Stark says it delivered 8,124 motorcycles in the half, 45% more than a year earlier, and the second quarter set new records for monthly revenue, dealer sell-out volume and factory output.
“We set a plan, and we exceeded it,” says Anton Wass, Founder and CEO. “Reaching EBIT-positive while still investing heavily in new technology is the part that matters. It shows the growth is funded by a strong underlying profitability, real demand and disciplined execution, not by burning cash.”
Gross margin climbed month by month through the second quarter as purchasing and manufacturing gains compounded. Higher-margin revenue streams also grew, with spare parts more than tripling year-over-year and the company’s software revenue hitting new records following the launch of its patent-pending Dynamic Traction Control.
During the quarter, Stark strengthened its financial leadership with the appointment of Max Cichon as chief financial officer, bringing Tier-1 automotive experience as the company prepares for its next phase of scale. Financing discussions to support that expansion are progressing, with several institutions in due diligence.
Outside of financial performance, Stark’s electric platform also performed well in racing competitions. After securing the 2026 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship Manufacturers’ Title, it had several strong finishes at the 2026 Red Bull Erzbergrodeo, including two racers completing The Main Event.
“Every quarter we become a stronger company; not because the journey gets easier, but because our ability to execute keeps improving,” Wass adds. “We remain confident in our full-year forecast.”
Electric dirt bike manufacturer Tasaca recently unveiled the new T500 Pro, its latest EV, which the company says delivers the power, capability, and control expected of high-performance electric dirt bikes while remaining priced below $2,000.
At the heart of the T500 Pro is a 6,500W peak mid-drive motor capable of producing up to 365 Nm of torque (270 ft.lbs). Tasaca adopts a flat-wire motor design that delivers higher energy conversion efficiency and improved heat dissipation, and it can climb gradients of up to 45 degrees while reaching a top speed of 55 mph. Powering the drivetrain is a 60V 27Ah high-capacity battery with a riding range of 55 to 60 miles
The chassis is equipped with a 17-inch front wheel and a 14-inch rear wheel paired with off-road anti-slip tires. This wheel configuration improves ground clearance and obstacle-crossing capability while delivering stronger traction on loose surfaces such as gravel, mud, and unpaved trails.
Weighing just over 146 pounds, the dirt bike is significantly easier to handle than many conventional gasoline-powered dirt bikes. A low 29-inch seat height allows riders between 54 and 77 inches tall to place their feet on the ground more comfortably. Despite its lightweight construction, the dirt bike supports a maximum load capacity of 353 pounds, making it suitable for a broad range of riders.
Overall, Tasaca says the T500 Pro accommodates riders who still expect high top speeds, manageable handling, and a confidence-inspiring riding position.
E-bike manufacturer 101 Bikes recently launched its new Factory Edition e-bike models that the company says combine the attitude of factory motorcycle racing with the freedom, accessibility, and fun of electric mobility.
Available in two exclusive colorways, Race Red and Seafoam Green, the factory-inspired e-bikes are designed and developed with motocross legend Jeremy McGrath and freestyle BMX rider Bob Haro. The Factory Edition draws from decades of motocross, BMX, and Southern California riding culture.
“I got involved with 101 because I wanted to create something really fun to ride. We’ve built something pretty special, and everyone who rides one seems to come away with a smile,” says McGrath.
Powering the Factory Edition is 101’s Range-Optimized Torque Amplified powerplant, which combines a 500W motor producing up to 105 Nm of torque with a 48V lithium-ion battery and an estimated riding range of 25–35 miles.
The Factory Edition pairs electric performance with fully adjustable inverted moto-style suspension, oversized hydraulic disc brakes, and exclusive 101 Quasi-Moto puncture-resistant tires.
Motorcycle-inspired, the Factory Edition remains a Class 2 electric bicycle, with fully functional pedals and motor assistance limited to 20 mph. Its electrical system and lithium-ion battery are both certified, making it legal and compliant in all states.
Only 150 of the 101 Factory Edition e-bikes have been made, and the MSRP is $2,500. Both colorways are available at 101’s network of bicycle, powersports, and e-bike dealers, or at 101bikes.com.
