Introduce yourself here!

Hello ?? I dont know if anyone will ever read this . I am looking a site for general chat

Sadly or....... I am the owner of a Husqvarna 650 TR Terra.. Yes I know.. Well anyway it has kept well until recently . Just wondering if anyone here has some experience to chat about these. Regards all.
 
Hi, I'm from Melbourne, Australia. Picking up my Norden next Friday. Currently own a KTM640 Adventure and 1960's Royal Enfield bullet. Unfortunately the KTM has to move on to make room in the garage and to help finance the Husky. I'll post some pics when I get it I guess.
 
I've had my Svart 401 for a week. I'm good friends with "neutral" now, although she hid from me at the beginning. I've been riding motorcycles for 60 years, and too many bikes to even remember. I seemed to always have a bike in the garage, regardless of where in the world I lived or what I did. Recently, I have been living in the highlands of Mexico, and I just sold a small electric motorcycle (SuperSoco TCMax) to get the Husky. When I lived in town, the electric was perfect, but I moved to the country and the electric was not enough. Not wanting a big bike again, I found the mid-range 400cc interesting and decided on the Svart. I really love it. What I don't like is the slow speed handling -the jerkiness while in first in city traffic. I guess that comes with the single cylinder doing all the work.
I'm not a wrench so I don't even know where to start my mods. I do want to change most of the things mentioned in the forums, like the mirrors, rear mudguard, add sliders, and so on.
Thanks for the great info that you provide and to everybody who contributes to the forum.

I’ve had my 2020 for almost two years and it is firmly at the top of my all-time fun bike list. I started in the dirt in the early 70s, then went through a series of Japanese sporty bikes (KZ650, GS750E, XV550). Went through a prolonged boxer period (R100/7, 1150GS, 1200RT). Still have the RT, but bought a last-gen Interceptor for fun when they came out. Landing on the Svart as my daily ride to complement the RT is best bike decision I’ve ever made. Like a Labrador puppy on two wheels.

Wow, this is sick! Is it wroth ~$600, though?
 
It is a big improvement on the old dash I just hope I don’t have any problems with it because I have no confidence that bad winners would help given the trouble I had with them breaking delivery promises and not replying to message’s . The original order went in in February and I think I only got now because I was insisting on delivery or a refund

I dont want to defend Badwinners, although I would like to point out that everyone who uses chips has bigtime issues delivering on time since a year or two, especually hard for the small fishies.
