[@Justcarlosdiaz]

​@iCarlyfan4534 it's a free bike, put in a little effort haha

[@Delaro420]

It a day before I I became 21 so I do it on the 5 of October

[@sn0wchyld]

moral of this story - matt needs to enter some hill climb events in the hayabusa... even if he doesn't win it'd be amazing

[@kasuraga]

would be really cool to put an extended swing arm on the hayabusa for those hill climb events too

[@farbrornilsson9709]

Love the Stark varg. Had mine since December, can't describe how much fun this bike is.

[@darinblomquist422]

I was just at the same hills yesterday, so much fun. I'm 58 and ride a XR400R. You guys make it look like a walk in the park. I was shaking going up those hills, but what a rush!

[@ckshreve]

That's a real mans bike!

[@MatthewBradley1]

The Varg sounds like a Power Wheels! Love it!

[@no_nuts]

It sounds like a high-speed fishing reel.

[@farbrornilsson9709]

It sounds way more badass in reality,. sounds like a super pissed off mosquito on the track. Love it

[@MatthewBradley1]

@@farbrornilsson9709I believe it! 🦟

[@wallflower15875]

The camera audio doesnt do it justice. It sounds a lot beefier in person. Its louder than a 50cc scooter lol

[@HansZuerner918]

you are 50% savage 50%legend. no gloves whole video on two bikes that have to be ripping outa your hands half the time is crazy 🙌🏻

[@MessyRides]

As always I’m loving the content brother! 10/10 and the Busa sounded sick on that first rip!!!!

[@Be4tJumper]

the sound from the falling rocks after the busa got to the top was so cool!

[@Be4tJumper]

@MattSpearsGiveaway lol a separate non verified account just for giveaways

[@dangareau]

It's been awhile since I've seen a guy with so much enthusiasm while putting up with the pain of hill climbing while sitting on such massive balls.

[@normangraber1047]

Peyton: "I'm not clinically insane". Pretty accurate assessment there Matt. Always look forward to your videos.

[@MichaelMassie]

Instant torque makes a huge difference.

[@boddysurfer]

Instant full torque at low RPM is the full on advantage of the brushless electric motor.

[@duhB0MB]

also the other bike is heavier also makes a huge difference

[@adrianio1000]

Did you know that gas motors are also capable of instant torque? Just rev it up and drop the clutch.

[@boddysurfer]

@@adrianio1000 Did you know that you don't have to rev up an electric motor, just hit the throttle and instant torque. 🤡

[@phillipzx3754]

@@adrianio1000 If you have to rev it up first, it's not instant. 🙂

[@fredsons2241]

Your fearless enthusiasm is clinically insane and totally entertaining!

[@ChainsawFPV]

As someone that uses FPV drones to chase uphill bikes at our local track, I am surprised you have not got someone to get killer footage of you yet. Most would do it just for the fun of it. Not hard to reach out to your local chapter and find a couple of good pilots to come hang out.

[@michaelw5468]

Dude another quality Video . Man you can ride that busa, I would love to see you do some road rider on a superbike.

[@BobbySonnNews]

5:16 Busa Wheelie up the mountain 😮😮😮

[@lanwickum]

The varg is an amazing bike. Sold my varg only because of run time and charge time. Such a fun bike. It was one of the first in Montana. The support and warranty of a Varg is unheard of good. Everything you mention on the Varg is true. Had to buy tickets just because I enjoy your crazy videos almost as much as I enjoyed my Varg.

[@Pickerelpete63]

How long was run time? Could you get 6 hours of had riding?

[@edhunter3838]

matt , cant even say how much of a good rider you are !!! riding that big busa on those hill is incredible , you are a beast with a great attitude and a contagious laugh !!! cheers

[@basementracer]

You can ride that thing bro, respect. I have owned a few litre bikes in my day and wore out many a pair of sliders. I have never thought of talking my passion for dirtbikes and my need for speed and putting them together. I see a nice line of liter dirtbikes in your future.

[@holdenbrougham1056]

Hi Matty love your busa bike build , especially because of your control of this wild bull bike , it's a rodeo angus bull on 2 wheels , the electric bike is mega convincing and is true performance as tested by both you guys and you are fear less riders especially you mad Matty 😅

[@A_OnTheGo]

Awesome video Matt! Love the content, spot on my man keep ‘em coming!

[@Sledneck1080]

The varg i think is the perfect second dirt bike i just couldn't take it for a multi day trip in the woods and try to keep it charged but ive ridden an electric arctic fox before and the combination of controllability on single track and power in the open desert is insane.

[@ni_wink84]

I wish those things were around when I could still ride! That looks like an absolute blast to rip!

[@ChrisMaveric]

Super entertaining video!! brings back memories of my time "free riding" with my moto buddies.

[@MatteoTortello_com]

Being electric is just a huge plus!!!

[@LouieLouie702]

11:15 not as dramatic and just all around not as much of a symphony in the ears as the busa. Hail to the king.

[@mortaljorma69]

Busa weighting about 150kg more than that e-bike. Now that makes it impressive.

[@thebeez9487]

Nice. Now if they could only make the battery lighter and nuclear. You know, so you never have to recharge it. THAT would be awesome 😎

[@lewieshepherd3492]

would keep you nice and warm in winter

[@wallflower15875]

Fallout style fusion cells would be so nice. Electric would overtake gas by a massive margin if charging werent needed.

[@Unitedstatesgov598]

@@wallflower15875 by massive margin if electric you never had to charge it would make gas bikes almost obsolete. electric's already ahead of gas in every way except charge time

[@wallflower15875]

@@Unitedstatesgov598 Very true. Thats why I use my 72v surron as a city bike. Once I can get my motorcycle license I'm gonna get a Honda NC750X for the freeway. Gas for long range, electric for power is what I say. Electric is perfect for street and offroading, gas is perfect for highway commuting and long distance enduro/adv

Haha go ahead Matt! You know you've made it when you've got scammers in your comments pretending to be you about the varg 😂

[@emmettboling7640]

Another banger of a video! Good job you savage 🤘🏻

[@basementracer]

Nice and if I may be so bold. Finally, I have a use for one of those POS bikes. This is epic.

[@staninokla]

I have some tye3000 dirt bikes and I love them. Nothing like the Stark Varg. I would love to ride that bike. You are amazing on that Hayabusa The Moab video is amazing

[@dicktrickle4197]

No shit, it sounds horrible

[@DarkSideofWA]

Great video! That was a lot of fun. I'd love to have that bike.

[@RealWorldCarReviews]

Most people don’t realise that while the electric bike might ‘only’ have 80hp, the torque figure will be huge, and it’s absolutely immediate the second you pull the throttle back. If you write off electric bikes as boring, this should prove otherwise.

[@foolonthrn]

The busa is still my favorite bike out there

[@AlmightyG1969]

New sub. Amazing video. Hill climbing with a busa is nuts.

[@XelaSnikliw-fg8wu]

Man back in the 90's BMC hillclimbs were legendary! Like Montucky Mardi Grass!😂

[@XelaSnikliw-fg8wu]

Billings hillclimbs were lit in the 90's. Like Montucky Mardi Grass!😅

[@isaacteague672]

You should ride the busa across some water. I have a debate going, I think it will do it.

[@GameMania-bp5rj]

still aprreciate hayabusa consider the genre of this bike still can compete with full time off road machine

[@whollymindless]

I think you guys need to take both of these to hillclimbs all over and just make people laugh.

[@hankyost2399]

One thing I have not heard yet 10 minutes 12 seconds in. Weight of each? Especially when hill climbing. Rear tire sizes?

[@hankyost2399]

Top speed of each?

[@kevinvesely2654]

This video popped up on my feed. Never seen y'all. It would be a pretty good video if it didn't feel like a commercial for your raffle.

[@juice9767]

Sweet Video. I just subscribed 💯

[@guywheeler4225]

ALWAYS QUALITY CONTENT. In your humble opinion, which one would you take if you could just have one?

[@Am3lie86]

Nice Vidéos Matt 🥰👍

[@jessybonsant5181]

What beta was that in the background? Still have the 200?

[@shadowwolfmandan]

It's obvious by the amount of dirt being thrown back that the weight of that massive 4-stroke works against it.

[@Insanity_Wolf]

It took me some time to warm up to PEVs. Honestly glad I did. Have a varg, a ventus one, surron, base falcon M, 88v super73. And probably many more to come. They can definitely be money pits. Also battery costs are wild still. But once battery costs go down they will definitely take over. I can't however bring myself to buy a electric car. I love my cars too much. 😂 But its mainly I dont like the aesthetic looks of electric cars.

[@LarryRichelli]

Gas bikes have like 10K moving parts. The Varg has like 20. You guys are great riders.

[@GameMania-bp5rj]

By the way, i'm corious in which mountain are you climb?

[@bcuzicancuellar5478]

Great vid. Got a ticket for the give away! Ride safe…🙏🏻🏍🙏🏻

dude this is so sick but GAS all the way!! (grom rider here lol)

[@priyadarshichatterjee3424]

watching it from india mate

[@russellzauner]

sand paddles on a varg yep that sounds correct

[@bigjay6743]

One of them's a street bike and the other ones a dirt bike just because it has tires on it doesn't make it a dirt bike. The street bike is way heavier..

[@airadaimagery692]

I didn’t even notice that! 😏

[@Alex-hv3ir]

And has way less torque at lower rpm’s

[@robertandersson2523]

Great content 👌

[@jamikes94]

5:45 me too, i already have a Eride Pro SS but I've been looking into Vargs, this can save me 15k & the whole search process tryna get one shipped VA.

[@chriswoxberg6419]

I saving for a Stark Varg

[@neil9184]

the stark doesnt make 80 lb ft of torque it makes 680lb ft 7:30

[@bgjames111]

Dang are you in Montana?

[@johneannetta2063]

Props to the Varg but that Busa is so cool

[@VroomNDoom2602]

This wasn't a question of bikes. It was a question of how much power your tires could put down. The busa is probably a couple hundred pounds heavier, making a huge disadvantage for going uphill. I'm amazed how well the busa did with that stiff, short travel suspension along with the weight. Dirt bike wheels and tires are designed with getting traction on dirt in mind. The street bike was expecting to grip pavement.

[@magirus1]

hayabusa with dirt tires is a crazy idea

[@bigtruccon2wheels617]

That stark is a beast

[@jerryfarmer5989]

Try that on if you can find one a 1974 Yamaha XT500. That Busa seems like it's a lot of "stuff" on it. I have had more fun on old enduros than any other bike.

[@BillOlson-ht8zj]

Take them to glamis. Put paddle tires on. You can’t put the bussa power down thru a nob.

[@Fany_penkyy]

Wowww hayabusa😮

[@since4everrr]

I can't believe you don't ride the gloves lol

[@GameMania-bp5rj]

Hayabusa much upgrade many thing to be able offroad and climb a mointain

That electric is badass, I grew up riding motorcycles there is no better adrenaline rush

[@MichaelWilliams-vb6wr]

I saw a guy at a motocross track had a electric dirtbike and was out running 250 2-stroke bikes no problem he said only problem the battery 🔋 only last bout 2 n half hours before it needs charged back up

[@theninja001]

You lost me at calling a Hayabusa with knobbies a dirt bike.

[@ΘάνατοςΧορτοφάγος]

80 hp (59 kW) at 12% state of charge? Doubt it. Still, the Stark is awesome

[@dragbikeJimmy]

The Varg Alpha is a beast 80hp. One of my cr500s make 82hp of 2 stroke craziness. Stark bends you over and gives it to you with no lube at $14,200.

[@cameronsmith717]

I’m watching your video right now and I had to get on my phone the comment, bro, one of the best hill climbers in the world the saying you can ride better than him and you’re on a fucking Hayabusa on a hill you should definitely start trying to ride professional, or enter some sort of contest, bro cause you can definitely ride and I’ve always known those stocks are crazy. I watched so many people that have them and they just fucking eat up everything.
