It's time for a newer model this year, my trusty '04 FE450 has done me proud and is still going strong but I now want to upgrade to an '08 FE450/550. Not too many of them about though, a few have popped up now and again. Now that I'm serious about buying one, it's just a waiting game until the right one comes along. I hope to get one before May.
Would prefer to buy one from a dealer. Seen one from Midwest Racing on Ebay that looked just the job, until I saw it was a 380 - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Husaberg-FE380-20 ... 240%3A1318
One issue I'm having with my current Berg is my height and weight, and the suspension. I'm over the limit for it, being 6ft 4" and 15ish stone, so landing off jumps & heavy landings etc bottoms it out, forks sound terrible when this happens. Basically the front end is too low.
I'll have to look into upgrading the suspension, one things for sure though, I do want to stick with Bergs as I get sick of seeing a field of orange at the enduro's and like to show them all that Husaberg's are more than capable!
