the obvious answer is because hes laying on the throttle in a lower gear out of the turn.

240lbs is really optimistic, Just like my KTM525 it is supposed to be 240ish as well, in reality it is 275-280.

I have ridden the husaberg 650 before but it was in dirt trim not SM. Crazy pull down fire roads and shit.

its 240lbs dry, add gas and oil and you get your extra weight

shock oil, air in tires, trans oil coolant ect. It ads up quick.

Sounds kinda like me before I go riding. I'm supposed to be like 210lbs, but add beer, some steaks, riding gear, mud, water, and it starts to add up quick...

one wierd and kinda lame thing is the engine only holds 1qt of oil. so you're supposed to change it every 300miles

It is the same other then it has knobby tires, and a smaller front brake, and some bark busters.

Its a race bike so its pretty Unpractical for street use due to the maintenance but it will be fun. Enjoy the high cost of everything to own a race bike.

i don't think it will be that bad (i hope)

the thing is badass, except i think my ass fell off about 60 miles into my first ride.

ridiculous power wheelies, pretty good front brake. its really fun to ride and it being so light it inspires a lot of confidence in corners, only after a few corners to get used to it i was carvingv pretty hard. power wheeling out of corners is fun i guess

i've gotta ride this bitch side saddle

how much did you pay for this?

random-strike · « **Reply #23 on:** May 29, 2009, 11:43:55 PM »

why does it matter how much i paid for it? the original owner paid 13k after buying the wheels, and some of the other stuff... has the heated grip options and the fan option

I was just wondering how much, some day id like a Race SM but after buying a CRF450 + Wheel's and Tires Its probably close to the same price as a used KTM or something like ur bike.

the guy wanted 5700 for it. brand new after you buy the wheels, and the options its about 13k. i think they want too much for the ktms and other high end SM or dual sports... like the betas are about 10k
