    He is probably just riding a "new" old WR360.

    Why would Husky keep a new bike under the radar?

    You do, sort of let it slip, which is a great marketing plan and creates quite a mystery till they are released.

    150 Great

    250 Great

    350 Bingo

    200?

    From what I saw it is the same concept cylinder and power valves as the WR250. It might use the old WR 360 crank, piston kit, and rod though. I am sure we will learn more as the year goes on. I wouldn't be surprised if this is just the first shot at development and we won't see it in the new frame seriously re-designed for another year or so. Using the old 360 architecture isn't a bad thing. Great motor.

    All the pictures I can find lean makes it lean toward the 360 theory. It looks like the same engine platform as the current WR 250 / 300. I guess they found some old 360 motors in the back of the shop. [IMG]

    CH Racing/HVA must have spoken to Merriman again...funny how things come full circle with a "new" 348cc motor.
