Jesus H Christ...

Why? (kitsch Husky emblem "stamped" to end can? Mercy)

Moral: makes R12ST look like an inspired design.

Garage
dang, i was all set to rush out and buy one until i saw that exhaust canister.

it's just not big enough. way too understated for my tastes.

changed my mind.

ps: i know bmw bought husky, but didn't think they'd be dictating the license plate bracket so soon! did somebody steal the hp2s guy's sketchings while he was out to lunch?

radiator is behind the headlight cowling. husky says it won't come with the 450 bmw motor as shown, but instead will have a 610~630cc single.

I have a terrible idea

Get the thing and just add a second end can on the right (the thing is so ugly that nobody could/should/would notice the fake stuff).

What a visual atrocity!

How many people actually RIDE their supermotos around?
I know I do (2-stroke and all..I love the smell of race gas and nitromethane) but I'm weird, very weird as you all know by now.
I constantly see Suzi DR400SM's on craigslist, always several for sale.

When I'm done painting it, I'll post pictures of the ORIGINAL supermoto (H-D XR750)..in this case a clone of the original, but it slides like the geunine article...
