Sandracer_uk here on the yz400 with the silver frame.

was wondering if you had decided on the husaberg yet,, i saw your bike for sale in trials and motorcross.

i also looked at the hussaberg at the show in the nac, my main concern about what looks on paper like the ideal bike is the choice of ignition used, apparently the same make as was used on early KTM's and the cuase of many problems.

Did you see the husqvarna's at the show
they seemed light and is certainly on my short list of 3

1] ktm520
2] husqvarna
3] crf [tho i suspect i'd be back at square one]

hello Mark

i know they had trouble with them last year and as you know that's what went wrong with the TBM bike that was tested. i went after the one advertised in TMX and he had 15 calls for it. oddly enough it was the very same machine as was tested.

i thought that they'd sorted it for this year. how bad was the problem on the KTM's?

i must try and buy a used one as i don't have the dosh for new. it's still the bike i want to get. i did see the huskies and was very impressed with them. very narrow tank. however they need an early report to say that they've DRAMATICALLY impoved. they're well behind the opposition as far as racing them goes.
