I'm curious as to how they insure that the crank bearings have adequate lubrication on start up (and running for that matter) being up at the top of the engine now. Maybe some sort of reed valve system?
For me...I'll take the last year of a production run over the first year of a completely new model. Don't forget that the factory bikes which preliminary testing are done on are treated to service the likes of which "Joe Blow's" bike never will be. There are also potential quality issues between making a handful of "hand made" prototypes and going into mass production.
If this new model does not have some "glitches" in it that need to be ironed out...that would be extremely surprising regardless of how good Husaberg is.
For some, the novelty and (perhaps) performance will outweigh the risks. Whatever floats your boat.
