    Wasn't planning on looking at other Huskys today but I did. Also got a chance to sit on a DRZ400 Supermoto. The DRZ was very nice, however I wouldn't trade my 650 every day bike for a 400 since I commute on the highway.

    Anyways, I sat on and checked out a FE501 and I liked the way it looked and felt sitting on it. Would need a lower seat though. I put a pre-order deposit down on a 501S.

    Since I'm financing my '13 TR650 Strada and I'd have to finance a FE501S, would you all trade or sell the TR650?

    Depends on your ride environment and who you ride with?

    I wouldn't want to use a 501S for a daily commuter or for long distance. I've got a TE449 and while it's street legal, it's just not that great of a street bike but set up excellent for off road use. My Dad has a Strada and I've put a few miles on it and I can honestly say its no contest as the far superior street mount.

    Probably not the answer you were hoping for because I honestly think you should keep both! :cheers:

    Trade or sell...how much will your dealer give you for it? Those 501's are supposed to be a very sweet ride but agree with above not a long distance road warrior
