Making a timely return to the Supermoto sector Husqvarna launches the FS 450 – a technologically advanced machine based on the FC 450 motocross bike. Featuring numerous lightweight, premium components in its construction the FS 450 sees Husqvarna step forward with an exciting new machine. http://www.mxlarge.com/2014/09/04/husky-fs-450/
A headlight tail light street legal version would be cool. Either way, with this being launched maybe parts to convert a 501/450 will be available?
Nice to see we got the SMR. Can't wait to see if these pop up on usa pro Supermoto next year. Reveille, just order some warp 9's and tell us how awesome your 501 is . From what I remember these really are purpose built with a shorter swing arm and different offset triples
Is this clutch anything new or have these devices been around? The APTC slipper clutch by Adler prevents rear wheel instability and hopping when braking hard into the apex of a turn, for maximum control and perfect supermoto-style drifting. The Brembo hydraulic system guarantees perfect clutch modulation.
Not sure when they started putting them in SMR's but it has one too. They've been around for awhile but are about a grand if I remember right buying aftermarket. This was a big deal with sport bikes awhile ago to. It prevents wheel chatter while downshifting for a turn. It's like you rekluse, it controls clutch slipping.
I'm sure someone else can give a more technical reply . I'm really not even sure if I ever had a sportbike with it.
here- state of the art STM brand for example http://www.stm.to.it/site/en/index.php and state of the art Adige brand as well (both Made In Italy) Adige has been the OEM source for KTM for years along with other EU motorcycle companies (Red Husky as well) http://www.adige.eu/public/ENG/products/aptc.asp
