New less slippery and more grippy footpegs. Gone is the Suzuki-yellow, we do not want to associate with that manufacturer. Pump up that AER fork and the bike is no longer undersprung. The new spring itself is probably softer, but the whole rear end is definitely stiffer. The result is a ~10% motion ratio change. The latest WP shock replaces the older WP shock. The bike's "fueled" weight is now 259 lbs. The latest venerable WP air fork replaces the 4CS fork. The riding range is the same, but you can now drain that battery faster and charge it faster. And the re-charging now takes only 1.5 hours from a 240V source. Additionally, reportedly, the new battery has no thermal issues of the old battery, this is why it is possible to discharge it so much quicker, producing more power. The 147 ft-lbs of torque is greater than in most 2.0L passenger sedans. The power and the hit of a 250 2-stroke with the delivery, the traction and control that is superior to that of a 4-stroke, and the holeshot acceleration that is faster the fastest 450. Thanks to this, the bike can now produce 50HP, a whopping 20% increase.
Same 5.8KW capacity, but it can now be charged and discharged much quicker. So much that Alta had to introduce the MXR moniker. Q: WHAT DID ALTA CHANGE ON THE MX(R) FOR 2018?Ī: A plenty of things that matter the most. And the most important change is the white plastic. A whopping 20% increase in power, quicker charging, latest and greatest WP suspension, proper MX tires, grippier footpegs. Q: IS THE 2018 ALTA REDSHIFT MXR BETTER THAN THE 2017 ALTA REDSHIFT MX?Ī: You're damn right it is better. MXA has never written an Alta review, so I will write one for them. I got to check out and ride the 2018 Alta Redshift MXR.
Yesterday Alta Motors had a demo day at Hollister Hills SVRA, south of San Francisco.
