Some of us are just more confused than others so there might be a few posting errors from time to time ... -- A fast-forward button to 2015 might give us a much better clue to the Husqvarna brand dirt bikes ... Until then, it might be best to strap the helmet on tightly and ride what we have ... at least that is my plan to ride more... (Your x-bike has turned out pretty well I'd say after the first ~75 hrs here ... After that cam swap, all I've done is changed the engine oil and rode it ... It was the go-to bike for a while here.)
A time is what you make of it........Like they say.........God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, The courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference. My translation reads "I did not buy Husqvarna and have no say so in what happens, I have both Swedish and Italian Huskies that I regularly ride and compete on and will continue to do so, and I will not buy nor even ride one of those re-colored orange turds!"
I really see this as no different from when Huskies became re-branded Cagivas, they evolved into something I LOVE. I'll remain open-minded towards future Huskies ..... While I stockpile parts for my bitchin '12 CR144 which I will never sell!
I remain open minded as well but one color I do not wear is orange and while that's pretty superficial, a motorcycle, car, boat, etc... are all chosen by a variety of criteria, color always being one. Now if KTM was red maybe I'de be on one but marketing choices lost me as a customer. Mostly since I tend to own what I buy for a very long time. I don't chose lightly. I also tend to own things that might suprise others, when they increase in value down the road, not depreciate, as many presume. Who knows.... Maybe the '13's will eventually re-escalate in value. The pinnacle of the 310 line. As long as there are parts and the bike doesn't mysteriously begin to fail, it's part of the long term stable for me. It's very happy next to it's sister, the single shock '06 Ducati Sport which has been selling for close to and more than new recently.
Seems to be the color of the garden equipment industry... http://www.husqvarna.com/us/home/ http://www.stihlusa.com/ http://www.tanaka-usa.com/ http://www.blackanddecker.com/Recharge/
When you do can I PLEASE PLEASE take a test ride please I want to ride one I will have to get a new bike sooner or later till then I am waiting for something new to show up from Husky
My best friend recently bought one! It is an absolutely awesome machine! I'm looking at buying one or maybe the Orange equivalent?
Aftermarket pipe and silencer puts the TE at 49hp which is plenty. The orange one has linkage and pds on blue, but after feeling the the redesigned pds on this, I'm all in, especially for rock crawling.
ZTR is a GT dealer, rock crawling? Install the FIM pattern type 140/80-18 Gummy with a drilled mousse!!! you can climb the side of the shop buliding!!
