Here in English with Picture no less.

Link changed again. They seem to be hiding these and changing the links. Better view it fast.

 

[HUSABERG 501]

Nothing less than superb. :) :) :) :) :)

 

[CRGuy]

Does that thing have a long enough silencer?

[Wolf]

That's not a silencer, that is a periscope(sp):)
Looks pretty sweet.

 

[Scott in KC]

Hopefully they put a descent carb on it.....LIKE EVERY OTHER FOUR STROKE. Dellorto's suck pure & simple, nightmare to keep tuned and they crap all over themselves if you change 20' in elevation, 2% in humidity or 2 degrees in temp. They could alleviate probably 50% of the customer complaints & problems with this bike by dumping that junk carb and using an FCR pumper like every other 50+ hp stroker. And maybe, just MAYBE one would resell for HALF of what was paid for it. These bikes are a no brainer on the used market, total bargains compared to any other ride. I personally would never buy one brand new....but then again I don't buy anything brand new!:)

Awesome looking bike! Gotta agree with that silencer comment though!

I sat on a -02 Berg last sunday:)
At Uddevalla Moto GP in Sweden.

Nice bike, it looks exactly as the spy pic..

 

[Shaw520]

Decent bike I'm sure, just cant seem to get past those foo-foo colors!

 

[gasgasman]

The silencer is made from recycled SCUD missile casings.:eek:
Did Husaberg split from KTM?

 

[yarbonwick]

Nope. Still owned by KTM.

I dont know if i could ever get used to a kickstarter on the left side though....thats wild.

Actually, getting used to a left sided kick is not that hard. After about 25 right sided kickstarter bikes I got the Husaberg. It took about a month to get used to this. Now it's as easy for me to start a left sided bike as a right sided bike.
