    I had a TE510, Loved that bike, but it was a dirt bike that was street legal.
    That pretty well sums it up.
    Great for Commuting.:thumbsup: Weekend tours (maybe some exploring) :thumbsup: And any real offroading...well that's for the dirt bikes right!
    My feeling is that the TR's and Nuda's will be dropped. SP already told us that by saying he wants to take Husky back to its roots.
    But I'm sure some how we will be 'looked after' one way or another.:cheers:

    Besides be the "perfect" all around or middle of the road bike, it is a BMW at the core. As mentioned here more than once, BMW moss tool works, the parts are all virtually BMW with minor exceptions such as bodywork. I would buy one right now if I did not have one before you can't. It is a shame if the bike is not continued under new ownership. It would figure that someone gets it right and it is short lived. An instant classic. Be interesting to see where this all goes.
