    Maybe I will hang on to this one !

    I must say I had a lot of fun here on CH , was a great learning experience and too much fun at times . I will post some goodies for sale 4 the 449/511 that is left over from my divorce from my other two bikes.

    I never thought that I would be one of them :)

    What switch? Isn't this one of the new 2014 Husqvarna models?

    So what model is it? Do you like it? New, used, a different brand, it's always fun to get a new bike :). Have fun, I'm interested to see what you do to it

    It's a bran spanking new XC-W 300 , not much on the to do list on this one. Skid plate , hand guards, cooling fan and maybe bar risers. I havn't road it or sat on it yet :) It has only been fired during dealer prep. It will probably just sit in the garage like the rest of my bikes did lol

    The next thing our gov will do is pass a law against bike manufacturers who bait us old guys into buying bikes needlessly ! And file a class action lawsuit to help reclaim lost retirement money :) it's expensive to buy bikes :thumbsup: how's the new one ?

    I didn't even realize it was a 2 stroke lol. 300cc 2 strokes sound like a ton of fun, I'm not ready to leave the 4 stroke idea yet though

    Not completely sure what bikes you are getting rid of or keeping.

    Are you keeping a Husqvarna bike?

    That is a great bike. I see a 300 gas gas 2 stroke coming next year. My 511, and WR125 will be staying though.
    Have fun with that, I have been greatly entertained by your postings. Now that your a KTM man, hit the bricks! LOL!

    I really want to hear how the torque and weight compare. Everyone says they have loads of power off the bottom but is that compared to other 2 strokes or is it comparable to a 450 4 stroke?

    BMW should have swapped Husky for Husaberg. Much smaller investment and they could get out from under Husky lol. I'm sure Husaberg will be back before long, someone will want to revive it. Brand revival is a big thing right now :)
