THIS BIKE SUCKS.. STARK VARG (replacing the water pump)

[@Rylalex92]

You are definitely doing something wrong in bleeding process. My stark had a small leak and pops that coolant pump error. It took me a while to properly bleed the cooling system. The official tutorial didn’t work for me so I had to improvise somehow. Leaning the bike from left to right, removing the small return line, while pouring coolant into the radiator worked for me .

[@redwolfracing]

Appreciate the insight yeah I've done it 3 times now and exactly how the videos says. I'll try what you did and see how it goes

[@DSHoss]

Man, that sucks. You are having crappy luck with the Varg. I hope they take care of you so you can start using the thing. One question - did you bleed the system like Stark recommends? If you did that, I I think you have no choice but to go back to Startk and have them try to figure it out what is happening again.

[@redwolfracing]

Yeah unfortunately I have had bad luck. And yes, I bled it 3 times exactly how the videos say, so now they're sending me a conversion kit for it

[@DSHoss]

A conversion to what? Also, I presume that means they won’t just give you another bike, huh? You’ve been done for a long time with a $14,000 paperweight. Sorry man.

[@redwolfracing]

@@DSHoss thsi is what they told me it is - "G1 to G2 cooling conversion kit that autobleeds the cooling system constantly. We are really hoping that by replacing this component this situation will be solved." And yeah I mentioned that and they ignored it, I imagine if I have more issues they'll do that 🤷 who knows.

[@107honda]

My varg had the same warning water pump the bleeding process has to be perfect or the issue will not be resolved .

[@redwolfracing]

Gotchya, I'll give it another shot then

[@bwhaskell]

Brand new pump and it's instantly throwing the error? Are you sure you bled the coolant system correct? If you can hear the pump flowing coolant, the only other reason is that there's air in the system. Otherwise, I've heard about a few bikes having bad temperature sensors. In any case Stark needs to get you situated. You've been dealing with issues for way too long.

[@redwolfracing]

Yeah I bled it correctly, I followed there video to a T, I can hear the pump working like turning on, but not the fluid moving. I emailed them once again trying to get answers. I'd like for them to just send me a new bike and take this one to re-inspect it cause it seems to be be always something so we'll see I guess 🤦 I'm over it though.

[@mxoudi]

At this point they just need to ship you a new bike and send a delivery team to pick up that bike. It's obviously a lemon that was put together by the summer intern lmfao. You deserve a brand new one now.

[@redwolfracing]

Haha yeah seems like it. Hopefully they can do that I emailed them to see what can be done

[@dpooo4304]

Electric is the Problem!! Thus the same crap with Electric Cars! Junk!!! Go back to Gasoline Bike

[@redwolfracing]

I still have my gas bike! Thankfully I've been able to ride it all year. I'd be pissed if I only had the electric bike, my season would have ended in August 😕.
