Probably the first modern version.
In the old days, trail, enduro or adv bikes weren't needed - you just took all the breakable bits off of yer big single road bike.

Yep, that's Simon Pavey. I followed his run in this years Dakar - he had trouble with it overheating tho - had to install additional fans on it!

Maybe Pampa should "Dakar -out" his X Challenge!!!!

Absolutely!
Really looking again at the X's. After while the styling grows on me.

Also quite like the Hoooosaburger 450 (I think - the one with the plastic gas tank/ subframe thing)even though it is a trail bike - a 650 would be awesoooome (spoken in Swedish accent)

Apparently. AND, I think there is team entered for the Dakar 201o.
Husaberg is already riding professionally in Austrlia too for Rallies...
Have a look at www.husaberg.com lots of riders reports....AND the trails and tribulations of the 2009 models.

Pah, I KNOW my 990SM is sub-zero... ok... at times...

Monday night / Tuesday morning, going home around 2am, in the suburbs of fricken East Auckland, I found out the temp gauge can read minus!

Lowest temperature read so far, -0.1 degrees C
