Hi,
I've just joined the site after buying a near new 2005 FS650e. I bought the bike from a dealer in Penrith Australia after they had bought it back from a customer who had used it for an hour at a track. The story goes that the customer bought the bike to use the engine in a road racing frame in a class called BEARS (British, European, American Racing Series), anyway the rules were changed so the frame he was using no longer qualified and that's when he sold it back to the dealer.
The bike is in near new condition and still has a large amount of the warranty left, the clincher was that the price was over a thousand less then the already discounted price on the 2005 models.
Anyway sorry for the long post put after owning a few KTMs (my son is racing KTM 50SX) I am blown away by the Husaberg, it's design and looks make other bikes seem dated and the sound it makes when riding is just unreal. But I guess everyone here already knows this.
I was hoping that someone could tell me, maybe one of the Australian members on here, is my bike meant to be fitted with the handlebar mounted 3 way speedometer switch? And is the tool kit meant to come with a tool for adjusting the preload on the front forks?
Thanks is advance.
