Nicely done. Are Husabergs still produced or were the absorbed by another conglomerate?

Looks like a lot of fun!

Nice score Pete what did you pay for it?

I buy husaberg parts from ktm

Signature update time :yay:

My prob now is....
how meany bikes do I need....
09 XT660R
06 TTR250
79 Montesa 125 H6 Enduro
77 Montesa Cota 348 Trials bike
CRF150F " boys bike really"
Now the Husaberg..
sell the TTR or put it back on the road , The rego is
still live as it's been on hold for like 4 odd years...
Or give it to the boy & sell the CRF....

but I want them all.......





..

Husaberg's are still made but they are just blue/white KTMs now..

getting off the layed back TTR250 & back onto a 2T is going to be fun





..

Is that BRAND NEW????

The Husabergs are serious badazz. Exotic offroaders.

Pete asked:

'My prob now is....
how many bikes do I need....'

If you had to ask you can't afford the answer LOL.

Oh, mama, come to papa!!! :D:D:D

I don't know how are these very modern 125 two-strokes, but for sure they are still quite "digital" in their power delivery: nothing, nothing, bam, everything! So, be careful, as I can foresee lots of "ouch"es in the future :D

yes... A brand new 2011 TE125...
seems no one wanted a 125 Enduro....



...

had a few 125 MX bikes RM & CR... PE175 / IT175 /KDX200 /IT400 and a IT465
the last one a few year ago was a Gas Gas EC200...
Even for a 125 the power is quite liner but there is still a good sized hit
high up.. The power valve is tunable for the type of power delivery

It will get a rekluse clutch and a fly wheel weight..

7 grand NZ,,

fyi, per google
 

7000 New Zealand Dollar equals
5020.75 US Dollar


pete...thanks for the $. i see you're not one of the type that get offended about revealing how much they paid for stuff. i have finally learned to quit asking since it seems to be a touchy subject with some. :hmm: you've always been an no bullshit member :tup:

took the Berg for it's first ride....
think I have become a lazy rider since
owning the TTR.... The Burg requires
you to be very aggressive to make it work..
At 94kgs you can change direction at will
move yer weight back it lifts the front.
Yer don't have to slow down for small logs
dithes etc
I havn't played with the suspension yet and it
just floats over anything... no jarring coming
though the bars from the front end..

I did put it down... I stoped on uneven ground
couldn't get a footing.. over we went... seat
hight is a bit high for me... when I get the sags
set it will drop 100mm when I'm seated..

rear brake has no feel.... off or locked rear wheel
the motor stalls very easy...locking rear brake makes
it even worse...



...

I bet it will get better as everything brakes in.

yes.. I will give it another easy ride... then I can realy start ringing it's neck...

I was running oily mix so that possably not helping the stalling..
there a couple tricks to sort the rear brake... grind grooves though the pads
to reduce surface area or interduce air into the brake system.
