Thank you all for this forum!
Although Husaberg is originally a Swedish product, the support and SOUL lies out HERE. You are a very essential source of knowledge and inspiration to me. You would think there is more of a national brand awareness over here, but quite the opposite. "Hey there goes another brand that couldn´t make it." ..or.. "Well, they sold it to (the lesser), so now it´s all crap". This goes for both Husa and Husky. (And Saab and Volvo). Ofcourse there is the occasional "Better let them do it, cuz we can´t produce".
Well, Swedes are neither lazy nor counterproductive, but our taxes are.
All of my buddies ride either Yams or KTM´s.
Husabergs are quite rare in the woods and on the mx-track these days. Mostly they are seen on the street as motards. There is a trend among recreational enduro drivers to go towards lighter more agile 250cc 4-strokes. I believe this has to do with the rough terrain we are blessed with. There aren´t that many situations where more power is needed for the recreational user They Say.
The Volvo Mentality. Utility, Safety, No ***.
So thank you for upholding the excitement and the joy of having something forceful between your legs... (I tell it to everyone).
And for creating a living legend.
Regards,
Pete
P.S. A few years ago, living in Blanding , UT, I thought the only thing going in Moab was MTB´s... Now it would be a stretch, though Taffy made it there from U.K.? Gotta be really expensive shipping the bike?
I´ll check it out though.
