  • Husaberg ditches supermotos after selling 7 in 2010

    Husaberg has ditched the last of its supermoto models after selling just 7 in the UK last year.

    The innovative FS 570 four-stroke was the last of the Swedish supermotos to remain in the 2011 lineup, but in spite of favourable reviews and its novel laid-down single cylinder engine, it was able to shift only four units.

    More encouragingly Husaberg has used its now 100% enduro-focus to refresh its entire 2012 range of two and four strokes. It's hard to believe that in a country like UK, only 7 units of their Supermoto were sold.

    Date: June 1, 2011.

      I doubt even those 7 were sold. Maybe they gave them away to some of there employees.

          Husaberg is a swedish company formed in 1987, my year of birth! Their focus was to ensure good off roading, in the forests on sweden but eventually the company improved and expanded.

          Their speciality is the selling of 2-stroke off road only bikes even in today's age, where four strokes rule almost every bike category, including off roaders too.

          Right now, KTM owns Husaberg and so its production continues in Austria too. However, Husaberg's innovations were not stolen and the brand was not diluted and merged into KTM, as experts predicted. Even today, Husaberg stands in the market as a separate brand.
          Wish I could get one of their 2 strokes in India. But that won't happen though.
