Seemed to hold a lot of promise, then suddenly gone, like Cannondale dirt bikes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..... Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) Isnt getting rid of something BEFORE the company goes under, a good thing? Don't feel too badly, as you would have had to baby it and be too worried that repair parts would become hard/expensive to find. You got the best out of it tho. You got to ride it while it was new, sell it before it became worrisome, and still have pictures to look at. Pictures dont even need much maintenance and take much less room than a show bike. Just wait, I bet something better will come, as soon as battery tech increases by a good margin. Edited May 27, 2020 by ShanesPlanet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroThruster Posted June 2, 2020 Author Share Posted June 2, 2020 Yeah, I sold it before I honestly knew they were going under, they (Alta) are still sought after, especially for the off road guys, the guys over on the forum and pretty crafty at keeping things going on them but in time, they're gonna need some parts that'll be hard to source. I'm hoping one of the big 4 Japanese manufacturers do something, Zero is really the only one making anything obtainable and the closest dealer is 3 hrs away, and they're not known for their reliability.
