I just ordered a 2008 SM610. Can't wait to get it, but apparently I will have to wait a week or so. Good thing, I need a new helmet. Any suggestions? I am so excited. Can't wait to get on it and go.
Yeah, I've got a suggestion: You might as well sell any other streetbikes you've got lying around in your garage, because they're just going to be collecting dust from now on Congratulations on the new bike WoodsChick
I wonder what do you get extra for the R model that I didn't get for my regular 08 610 model??? Hell, I didn't even knew Husky made an 08 610R model..... Congrats buddy you're going to LOVE IT As far as helmets goes I had to get a new one too first thing, as my Schwantz replica was way to old I got a modular ZOX svs it has some neat features and the price was right Good luck with your purchase and welcome to the club (nice angle on the pumpkin...)
Oops...sorry for assuming, "New Guy" on your "New SM610" As far as helmets go, I'm very happy with my Arai XD. It's gotten to the point that I wear it even on my full-on streetbikes. My Arai street helmet doesn't have a visor like the XD and I miss it greatly. PS: Your roadrace roots are showing :-) WoodsChick
Just yanking your chain... They actually do make a 08 610 "R" model, I believe its called the 08 510 --> Here's some good read on helmets if you have a minute or two; Blowing the lid off ( <--click it )
I solved the helmet issue today, I bought another X-Eleven. This time a white one, I am sure it will work as well as the last one. I augered in at 60 face first in the dirt with mine. Did well, just bruised a bit.
