I got a wiggle from that

That's basically a white 690smc, right??

[reks95]

Yes, with different colors.
My wife told me orange is a powerful color.

[maxim_X]

it's on the radar.

[Kurlon]

Supposedly next year it gets the motor the 690 is getting this year, dual counter-balancers and hotter cams, etc.

i think KISKA did a poor job designing the bodywork and graphics on this bike, the side panels are hideous.

I agree although I'd prob buy it anyway because it's all set up and ready to go. Wish the gas tank was in the traditional spot...

I'd rather have this Husqvarna FS 450 2016 with some lights on it.

[breakdirt916]

like!

interesting how the main pic for marketing is ice

I just bought a husaberg fs570 - all the 690's I found were overpriced. Great bike, nothing like top shelf components and light weight!

That is friggin nice. Comfort racing.

I flogged a 690 for 5 years. Light. Powerful. Tall. And stiff. Dead reliable.

Ride Review: Sell Whatever You Own And Go Buy The Husqvarna 71 Supermoto

Says there are some reasonably worthwhile deltas.

..I would love more stopping power up front and noticed some significant brake fade after my long day of canyon riding. If this were my bike, I’d be eyeball deep into some dual disc options on Thumpertalk.com.

How the fuck do you not get enough brake out of a Brembo 4-pot grabbing a 320mm disk on a ~320lbs machine?!? Wonder if this cat has considered that the OE pads may be a compromise and that it may be worth trying some aftermarket pads first.

Price tag is => my DRZ + 32 track days.

That said it is also more powerful than my SV while still weighing the same as the DRZ.

And far better looking than either of those choices

I just called my local dealer on one, apparently a very limited number of these coming to the states. My dealer is not one that will be getting any.
