I had this Husq. TE511 for a few months - loved the feel of it. Big lung weighing in at 250 lbs.
Didn't buy it to dirt it, just to chase around on it. Traded it in on my Ducati Hypermotard EVO SP 1100.
Even on a 65 degree morning of scooting around, it puked-up on my patio. She just overheated too easily and I chose to not phuque with it.
.
I want a 250 lb. motorcycle with ~70 hp and good torque, and I'll be tickled.
So far, my Hypermotard is a blast to ride and a keeper. Probably the last Ducati I'll have.
.
I'd like to see motorcycles go lighter rather than more hp.
Not interested in having a motorcycle that's not a motorcycle.
If I want A/C, I'll buzz around in my Abarth.
.
YMMV.
