[QUOTE="70 marlin, post: 669499, member: 19522"] [U][B]Note: 02 Husaberg FX470E New, excess inventory, never rode.[/B][/U][B][/B] [URL="http://www.husaberg.com.au/bikes.jsp?bike_id=2220&subcat_id=2219&cat_id=2196"]http://www.husaberg.com.au/bikes.jsp?bike_id=2220&subcat_id=2219&cat_id=2196[/URL] This bike was a huge jump from a kdx! Better suspension, better everything. Going from a two stroke to four stroke took some getting used to! Being brand new she was still getting broke in. So the idle keep creeping up. In turn it made me push into the corners? Both days were short 40-mile runs in adverse weather conditions. Rainy, snowy, tight, hilly, sandy, rocky muddy, slimy and rooty trail" [B](It was a great day!)[/B] Over all this bike felt very stiff & fast! The bike felt bit tighter than the old kdx. But I think adjusting the handlebars will solve that. The suspension felt a bit harsh. Minor adjustments will be needed. The motor had XR stump pulling qualities. But scary fast top end. The bike felt very stiff and turned very fast [I],"I had a competent tuner/racer ride it, he said it felt like a 200 exc. in the way it handled, and that he could work with it. Coming from this guy that's a thumbs up!"[/I] Over all I'm very happy with it. It took a leap of faith to go with a Husaberg :ugg: with the lack of dealerships and a history of poor parts delivery service? With the price of $4800 I just couldn't pass it up. My dealer "Euro Motors" assured me that the parts issues were history. I ordered a lighting kit and had it was in four days. Time will tell? I'll keep up dating Husaberg's over all performance and services! [/QUOTE]
