Great to see a pic of my workshop at 2:20.😊
I had an FE501E back in 1998. One of the riders in the enduro club was an engineer and an ex ISDT medalist. He was fascinated by the Husaberg. YZ400F's had not come out yet. The Husaberg was so far ahead of the other bikes at the time (XR400's etc) it was like an unfair advantage. I remember stalling in theis deep rut. No worries. Pull in the clutch, hit the starter button and launched out on the back wheel. Got the lap record on the short enduro course not really because I was the best rider. It was because the bike was so easy to ride.
Well, the name is not really the name of their hometown. It's a part just outside Askersund, which is the name of the town. The camping area, located there, is called Husaberg camping. It's on the right hand side, approaching Askersund from south. Nice place!
Husaburg best bike I've owned in my 27 yr riding do it try one there fierce
They are very cool bikes
Loved my 501FE 👌🏻😎
The engine was designed and built by Folan.
Spot on with Yamaha shouldn’t get the credit for the High Performance 4T. Everyone knew these Bergs were the real deal. Yamaha had the power to get into AMA racing with a top rider (Doug Henry) and make the 4T splash.
Definitely
...it's peculiar that the AMA would bend the rules for Yamaha to allow a non-production bike to race in AMA motocross and supercross.
@@1969cmp in fairness there is a rule for it. What bugs me is you still can't race a 2T without a huge displacement disadvantage. They should at least allow 150s and 300s in the class... and even then they're damn near 10hp down.
i just got a old FE501 Husaberg and its a strong Bike! Kickstart only!
Anders Erikssons book havet good information about one of the engineers (Thomas Gustavsson) and The early enduro years.
I have a FE 390 and it is a Beast !!
Husaberg never equipped there bikes with Mikunk carbs. They started with Dellorto carbs and from 2004 MY they used Keihin carbs. But it is not a big deal to convert, I always equipped my old Bergs with keihin carbs which makes them much more reliable.
6:39 the 70-degree engine was the best engine of all time!
my FS570 is now 11 years old and runs like new 🙂
How many miles or km on it now? I just bought a 2011 FE 570 with 7500 km. I've wanted one since seeing the 2009s.
@@shavedape Congratulations, buddy!
made an engine overhaul at 300 hours, now I have about 500 hours on the clock ..
@@Amonzi what do you have for km at the overhaul and how many km on it now at 500 hours? It's pretty nice to have the hour meter but I'm so used to judging things by kilometers.
@@Amonzi was your overhaul involving new piston/rings and valves? Anything else (crank or bearings)? Did you find things were out of tolerance to inspire you to overhaul it or just for peace of mind?
@@shavedape sorry, I don't remember the km at 300 hours, but now 26k km at 470 hours
Nice vid, very informative.
P.S. Already subscribed, too bad I don't ride trials - I wished it was proven to drop lap times though.
🤣It does. That's what I use in the Cagiva video.
I remember whatching Jimmy Eriksson at the Sixdays in Walldürn/Germany. We were totally blown away...and a few years later I owned a Husaberg myself. Its a shame what KTM does to all these "Names" like Husqvarna, Husaberg, GasGas...different Names and equal Bikes. But I understand that thes brands would have vanished long ago, if KTM didn't do so.
Going to be interesting to see what they do with MV.
Husaberg was called "Husaras" in Sweden bacause they broke down a lot, but they was fast s hell!!
😂😂
🤗🤗❤️💯🏅🏅🎉
Öhlins was and is the best Suspension you can buy...not WP. And the rear Suspension of the older Husaberg's was Öhlins...
You did not say how Husaberg was performed and got ready for Joel Smetz to win. Vetemati brothers in Italy made the job.
You should do a video on the defunct Highland motorcycles that used the Folan engine.
Interesting. I will look into this.
@@johnsmotorcyclemania7039 It's a heartbreaking story. Many Husaberg developers were involved in Folan and Highland.
I always like the idea of husaberg but I never took the leap!
They are not for everyone.
Italian delorto crabs
Husaberg aint coming back swedes tried new brand husagren and it went bust.
@okok-gg5fl KTM won't do anything with it. Would be nice though.
very very expensive parts, welded subframe to mainframe, reverse engine design, snapping shaft left hand Kickstart, offset rear hubs, crappy carbs that pop off from compression. yes I've had a few to my dissapointment.
But cool 😁
i am left handed and i think im stronger with my left leg so i can easily kick my 450 berg, but i was strugling with my exc 400
