the OSSA looks COOL Bimota (KTM) weird... 4 st Fantic, very cool Also check this out... http://www.befurious.com/ossa-presenta-en-milan-las-novedosas-ossa-enduro-250i-y-300i/ Whats up with the swing arm not meeting the frame on one side? unfortunately this is what Husky managed to cough up...
I know I saw that 2 different BiMoTa dirt bikes!! Yes that OSSA is a lovely senorita and very logical in design, check the rear linkage, of course the inboard rear chamber is great the machine is super skinny with no pipe to hit anything. The color looks great. I like.

I like the MOAB. Not too keen on the fork and whole front end setup actually....but from the steering stem back, I love it. It is a "scrambler" bike...supposed to look part MX, part stripped street bike, and part 1940's Soviet Ural Farm tractor!
Re the OSSA- The linkage uses the right side as its main pivot & the front of the rocker attaches to the frame below the SA main pivot. The swing arm goes right to the right side of the frame at the SA pivot, above the rocker- it just doesn't appear to in the pics. It's anyone's guess how this will actually work out in real life. Looks like it would be easy to service though....... They need to give us a few of these bikes along with a couple of engineers & we'll ride the Corduroy enduro course a couple dozen times over the season. If they can survive that without issue, they can survive anything.

Both Triumph and CCM came out with retro look scramblers. They didn´t sell. Who wants to be (or be seen as) a pseudo?
