Go figure! The new KTM boss of Husky just got rid of the Husky TR650 Strada and Terra. They are bikes BMW just put $3B into developing with a 1000 cc hot rod that never made it to USA. But the TR650 smoked the KTM 690 and the KTM boss would have nothing to do with that when he first bought Husky from BMW.
He said no more street bikes for Husky, lol. You can get a brand new Strada with mags and USD forks and more for less than $5K (since then), but they are a little naked. Still, they are faster than a KTM 690 and rides like a BMW. Anyway, I would never trust the KTM boss or his bikes again. Integrity rolls down hill from the top, and his word is (ego) crap. KTM's are a little rough on the edge race bikes, but Husky's were always a nice respected exotic bike. Too bad. I think he really wants to trash Husky;s eventually after he gets a few grins first: bastard. It's a macho-European motocross thing I have read. Buy your better competition companies and then trash them. Karma will catch up to him.
