Husaberg
On none of the travellers boards do I find a mention of Husaberg. No, the Husaberg products are not distance-machines, but they do make excellent machines for North AFrican excursians.
I ride a '99 400 Enduro myself and find it ideal: the lightest by far, measerly fuel consumption, simple mechanics.
Weak point is 1 litre engine-oil contents which means you have to watch the level ánd replace this litre regularly. However, you'd take some engine-oil along anyway and a 2,5 litre can will give you two services ánd top-ups to span them.
As the bike is a pro enduro bike, all parts are TOP-quality and no mods are needed to make it take unimaginable abuse. Because of its origin, lots of accessories are available and alo most Acerbis stuff simply bolts on.
I have a 9 litre and 21 litre mains tank and a 5,5 litre aux. that replaces a side panel. All are original factory options.
Also fitted an automatic clutch; reliable, fool-proof and no clutch lever to break!
