Not many. 1,321 of the models TR 650 Terra and TR 650 Strada. https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/pres...=9&id=T0135943EN_US&left_menu_item=node__2201
Note that report is for 2012. Since the TR was introduced in, what, Oct? Then that's sales for a single quarter. Not sure how many were for 2013, you'd have to get that number from the new owner.
Hard to quantify the numbers. Of those numbers, much would have carried over into 2013, as they did not all sell to a customer that year, that was to the dealers, if I read it correct. Either way, not many. Probably less than 5000 total.
Not many, anyway.. Thanks for the link.. i will keep it. We should ask, BMW how many SERTAOS.. no dates about it , in press sales news.. curious!. 1.321 Terras and I guess husky has beaten BMW GS and sertao.
The 650s were not available for very long in 2012, yet the sales were approaching the 449/511 sales numbers for the year. My guess is without the buyout, and hurricane Sandy interrupting incoming shipments into the USA, sales for a full year would have been huge (compared to the other Husqvarna bikes):
Talking of the buyout and tr sales.... has anyone seen any speck of info about 2014 replacement ( if that is what it is). The BMW agreement with the chinese builders of the motor means that it almost certainly won't have this motor if continued. A Indian made ( Bajaj)690 KTM motor perchance and and maybe a 17" front wheel...or will the TR's just fade into obscurity except for those of us lucky enough to have owned one. Any credible rumours or reliable statements been made by those in the know recently?
Nothing really known yet. See these and read to your hearts content. Likely it'll be 2015 before the real 'New Husky' will start to take shape. http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/actual-news-on-the-ktm-purchase-of-husqvarna.31057/ http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/2014-husqvarna-line.33060/page-12#post-337737
I think a more relevant question is: "What side will the shifter be on, and will a model be made for the USA?"
Just for comparison. In 2011, worldwide, Husqvarna sold 9,286 motorcycles. Total. If they sold 1,321 TR650s in 1 quarter, or if they only shipped that many to dealers in one quarter, then that represents a huge number of bikes of a single model for Husqvarna.
As you can see in this prototype presented in MIlan salon, diferent frame and very small skidplate, also diferent brakes..
Yea, that's the old Strada prototype from a few years back. It had a lot of BMW G650X parts on it which got swapped for the less costly (and available) G650GS parts in our production versions.
It is the strada, which they present new model to come, two years ago.. of course. Just i posted to see diference..with stock model strada. Anymore diferneces, the Seat.
