Hello all,
I am new to the forum although have been watching for a while. I am a Husaberg dealer in Australia and thought you might be int erested in my own personal bike, which I like to call an FE550c:
2007 FE550e with WP twin chamber forks, modified shock and custom colors. The engine is the interesting part: electric start removed, head porting cleaned up, 13:1 450 high comp piston, genuine slipper clutch, FC CDI & flywheel, powerblade, RAD fuel bowl, oil breather/catch tank, 2004 FE650 exhaust system with Akropovic muffler. Some time has been taken to carefully jet the bike now that the engine fumes are no longer in fuel system. The bike starts easily, is totally reliable and is an absolute rocket ship, throttle response is instant. It is still very rideable and makes a standard 550 feel as though it has some major restrictors in it. I also run the 2008 7.5 litre fuel tank, which gives the illusion of even lighter weight than it is. Overall a great, fast, fast bike.
