Default My New Ride, 2011 Husky TE630

Here it is, with some accessories pre-installed and ready to ship from Hall's Cycles in Springfield, IL!







Installed: Uptite skidplate, Cycra handguards, OFG radiator guards.

Now, I just have to drool over the pics while I wait for the shipping company.

I am now making loan and insurance payments on a bike I don't even have. Oh well, payments are cheap, I paid cash for about 40% of it.

What's the Y pipe for? Getting rid of the charcoal canister? I figure I'd just vent it straight down.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see what it does. I'll probably see how hot the bike runs first.

I don't think I'll miss the 100hp hit I'm going to take from the ZX-10R.

The July, 2010 issue of Motorcyclist magazine has a one-page test of the Husky. They gave it 4 out of 5 stars. I didn't know that BMW bought Husqvarna in 2007.
