What makes Huskys so good.

[XR250_RIDER_14]

I have been thinking about either a CRF450 or a Husqvarna 450. I saw one on supermoto the other day and it looked pretty neat. What makes the husky so good. I want to here it from the proud owners.

102 years of history. Malcolm Smith rode a Husky. So did Steve McQueen.

It is paid for. Makes me like my Husky.

When I was shopping for a supermoto I wanted a race bike that I could plate and I had to have a button because my lower back is fused in several places. The Husky fit the bill.

As it turned out the Husky has been a pretty good bike.

nice avatar Irondude. I bet the thumperette forum appreciates that.

If you can, ride both before you choose. Thats the way I did it and the Husky just fit me a lot better and the thing is so easy to work on. The Husky comes with all top quality parts, chain, pegs, brakes, etc... I also liked the fact that they were different but I think thats all going to change now that they are platable in all 50 states.

Hey sharpeman , how ya doing? hope things are going well for you. Hopefully you can ride in the spring again.

You see Husky's of all years still out and about in the desert, you don't see that many old Honda's out and about.

And you will see 20-40 of them together in Baja next April too. All owned by their owners, not rental bikes from a tour company. Steny
