This is exactly what I rented a couple of years ago to ride around Morocco.
Prior to that I wasn't even aware of the brand.
It proved to be comfortable, reliable, economical (with a very long range) and very capable on remote Atlas Mountains tracks.
Recommend.
I absolutely love the design that Husqvarna had pre-KTM. Sad that they changed it completely, but now with SWM I might get one of their bikes.
I just bought a KLR 650 2016 in the gray digital camo and I love it. But this is really interesting.
Trouble is it’s like the end of the world and there’s like no bikes. New or used. And I’ve been buying extra parts just to be ready. And those are starting to get delayed.
Some of the nicest looking Huskies are the CR500 from 85 and 86......the same for KTM, the 500MX is beautiful.
A couple years later the Husky based off the Cagiva was really neat.....in fact the Cagiva WMX250 around 1987 to 89 was a weapon.
@@whereswaldo5740 Almost positive the klr or x is better but I think the xr650 is the last bike you can buy aside from scooters that you only need too put money into for filters, chain/belt, tires, pads and fluids.
@@1969cmp lol
@@1969cmp Do you know the Cagiva Elephants? Wish I bought one of those years ago. These Ducati engines run so beautiful.
My Husqy WR250 was an absolute thriller to ride on the trail, single track, 12hr races. Everything. I would have no qualms about owning any of the SWM machines. Especially the TE. The old TE series were awesome and they don't look like they've changed much.
God bless you brothers. ✝️
I had a hisky wr250 1st trail bike.. Great bike loved it.
My brother used to have an Elefant 125 "lucky explorer", he bought it from Portugal, it's similar to the WR250
He has now a Husqvarna TR650 Strada and a Husaberg Fe
I love it! This is the only bike that's ever tempted me to sell my tricked out wee strom! Thanks for the great vid - it's not what you ride it's where you're going!
Sean, your idea of "words of wisdom" is brilliant and they are AWSOME!!!!!!!
Glad you are enjoying it for what it is. The barkbusters and double taker mirror are PO additions; also Givi boxes. The rest 100% stock. I have put 13.5k miles through 19 countries on similar SWM Superdual back in 2019. It is in the storage in Asia, cannot get to it because of pandemic.
myself and 2 other Lancaster County boys had SWM trials bikes in the late 70's and early 80's. were air cooled piston port 2-strokes and pretty decent bikes. kind of a stop-gap measure between Bultaco and Montessa purchases. the one cool thing i do remember about the SWM that i owned was it's model name: Jumbo!
"they gave permission to drive through the field"
*The next day*
farmer: yesterday I saw a hooligan ride through my field, you know anything about it?
Sean: uhmm..... no?
"Well, what had happened waaaaas......"
"They gave permission" means "they didn't say I couldn't!".
That was definitely an "oh wait this is for a video" moment
Karen already called police
Video editing is on point,
Audio is much much way better.
This video here representative of why I started watching SRK Cycles a year ago.
Sean, I really enjoy your videos, you do an excellent job with putting out good information and in a well presented format, very personable. Keep them coming. I am looking for a good candidate for a motard conversion in a 500+ CC format (I don't want an off the rack Ducati or Aprila), do you think the SWM would fill that bill?
I’m so glad that I will have parts supply for my 2008 Husqvarna TE450 now.
Very cool that you reviewed these bikes. I had heard about these awhile ago, and that they were essentially identical in most respects to the Cagiva manufactured Husqvarnas. As someone who has owned several of the Italian-made Husky's, it's awesome that they are back in the form of SWM. My 2006 TE610E is hands down the best dual sport I have owned to date. Very capable on and off road, super reliable and bullet proof design. I've been half temped to further dig and see how many parts actually swap right over, since parts availability for my older ride is really the only downside I've run into yet :)
I really wish they still made the 610. I had a 630 I really liked
4:30 also guys don't worry that field is pretty much "dead" until the farmer does something with it. It isn't planted or anything, like a fresh crop
Yea that field needed some attention anyway
If there was anything planted, i would ride trough it even more
@@the.communist I have shot at people who don't stop trespassing. Dont find the wrong farmer. Corn seedlings especially...
@@the.communist well you're a Communist who doesn't understand ownership probably never owned a thing in your life
I have been riding Husqvarna bikes for decades. I would recognize the sound of that engine from a distance.
The SWM is the most honest proposal in the dual sport segment. I got to ride both the KTM 690 and the Husqvarna 701 just six days ago. They are both great bikes, but too expensive. I 'd be more than happy with the SWM.
Greetings from Greece.
P. S. No offense, but you need to work on the Husqvarna pronunciation.
The Swedes would laugh. It’s a city, too.
i would love to hear a Greek pronounce Husqvarna. ;-)
I've been hoping a local shop will start selling these. I've been watching SWM since they entered the US market. I want one of these bad! If more shops start picking up these bikes, this may be my next dual sport! Planning on getting at least next season out of my DR650 then it will probably be up in the air between the SWM Dual sport or a new KLR... The new KLR's are super sweet too!
Good to see the name back , would like to see a comparison with the 'new' Kawasaki KLX650 , over mixed road/off-road conditions etc.
I have one, it's a great do it all DS bike. Had many Italian Huskys. Recently had a Africa Twin and KTM 790... This bike is more versatile for me as I like to do a lot of back roads and a few trails. Been solid so far.
Love my Husky TE630. Same as this bike but stripped down a bit. I would absolutely consider a SWM.
These SWM bikes fill a really nice spot in the market. I personally have a 2012 Husky TE310 dual sport that is very similar to the RS300r. They're a kick ass bike with very high quality components, a little on the heavy side compared to the current Husky/KTM but for $4k cheaper, its a no brainer if you ask me. I really hope these bikes catch on over here.
I wonder what the maintenance intervals are, is it as much as the new husky fe’s
@@garrettblaster no. These are based on the old “big block” Husqvarna engine. My TE250 has 750 mile oil change interval. The bigger engines can easily go 1500 miles. Valves…. never move! It’s a great motor.
I love the video. Glad you had a chance to take it offroad a little.
I fell in love with this bike when I spotted it at a bike show in 2019. Sadly there is little to no dealer network or I would absolutely own one and prep it for the Trans America Trail. I went with a 2019 KTM 690 Enduro R.
Now that looks like the ultimate all rounder trail/touring bike I’d like. Great review you have my sub from the uk 🇬🇧
I am stuck between buying one now or waiting to see if the KTM490 will be worth it
@@Mereshot101 yeah KTM are getting pretty serious at last
A little better than factory stock tires that are made for dual sport or adventure bikes with greatly improved the highway characteristics, and also making sure your tires are aired up fully to street pressures help a ton as somebody who almost exclusively rides to dualsport
Where did you order this bike from. No retailers in the usa.
Thanks again for your time work and scripture
My CRF250L is surprisingly squirrel-y on the highway as well, still a super fun bike. Thanks for the introduction to SWM
I had a Husky TE610, same motor,but how did they add 100 lbs?
If it had a kicker as a back up would be nice. Hey I’m old, had several kick starts over the years. But it’s pretty cool.
You can also buy a hill or mountain. A push start is a lot easier going down hill.
How is getting it serviced and repaired?
How can I get some of m1 gloves?
Looks like it has the same motor as the AJP 600.
Looks like a good option. 6 speed and efi, with minimal tech to go wrong.
It is the same motor
Love how easily it pops that front wheel up. Popping the odd wheelie is so tempting when you're riding something that loves to do it :D
Watch out not to hug a tree at 70 mph, doing your wheelie in a hairpin. Your friends prefer you alive and making jokes.
@@voornaam3191 And watch out not to do a wheelie at 200mph heading down a wharf that ends in 50 ft.
I think Harley was already in on it long ago. I used to be into flat track racing back 70, 80s. Bikes were Harley 750s But as a life long Desert rider. I would prefer the Honda XR 600. A life lasting motorcycle. I have The last production year bike
Harley is really late to the Adventure game. Baja ready Sporsters have been home made for years.
When Harley finally made a 1200 Street Tracker, it was going to be Europe only.
Ridiculous since the XR750 was the winning flat track engine for decades. Complaints caused HD to have a USA release.
600 were killers. Wish they still made them. A pair of 36mm Electrons and a shot of nitrous some XRs only goodies and a little Poweroll work. SOB was that bike quick! Wish I had that one back!
Sean, I think you should become a GPX dealer. Another hidden gem bike that I cant wait to get my hands on. Awesome video!
Husqvarna translated becomes ”Housemill” and pronounced ”Huskvarna”. Greetings from Sweden
You should be embarrassed to say your from Sweden
@@hurricane8634 WHY?
@@hurricane8634 Why he should be embarrassed? Care to elaborated?
@@tacomas9602 bc America is the best
@@tacomas9602 no one compares
Appreciate the review and the Words of Wisdom - keep the faith
Looking for best bike to out on back of the Motorhome. Two seater. Ideas? Been riding 40 years. The MG Stelvio i rude is too big for a rear hitch insert rack.
Do u still have this bike and is it foe sale
Can you get parts for it in Whitehorse ,Yukon Territories ???
I want one but where do i get one?
I always said those bikes are best for versatility. I live in WV so you could come home from work and go straight to the trails and hit the mountains. And yet go to the downtown or interstate. What else can go on a little trail and the interstate?
Take the givi cases off then take it down the highway, curious if that’s the cause of the wobble?
My Tenere 700 will get pretty shaky at above 87+ with the factory (givi) side luggage. And possibly the high fender added? Maybe it lifts and transfers even more weight?
It's tires and the soft suspension mainly plus everything you mentioned
Sean I Would love for you to do a review of a 3rd gen 750 magna and compare it to the older ones
Some gd new on off road tyres. Perfect. Nice bike. I'd get this over the other similar type bikes. Great video Shawn Thank You.
will you have the Super Dual for sale?
This channel makes this disabled vet want to learn how to ride! Keep it up! God is good.
Man, had to part with my tw200. I'd love to have this. It looks awesome! In time. Family first. God bless.
Where can I buy one in the US & A?
Hello Sean, do you have any tips for cornering heavy cruiser bikes? I remember you said usually the limitation is the skill of the rider and not the bike. I keep it pretty tame while cornering because I don't know how far I can push it
Cruisers dont corner well by design, so youll need to reduce speeds compared to other bikes.
This is really nice , now i want one !
where and how much ??
This looks to me as an interesting bike. But i would be the best if it woukd weight something like 160-175 kg.
That is why i am opting for the CRF300.
How does the weighthandling feel ?
Wonder how hard it is to get parts for it here in the US
Abe's Sports Center in Strasburg is loaded with SWM parts for this bike.
About the same as every Italian bike.. you go to the dealer. They blame covid for “not having anything in stock” and you go home and order it from the dealer and wait two months for it to show up.
Oh.. and 4 months and counting for a seat from seat concepts
HOW READILY IS PARTS AVAILABLE ?
Swm is a good brand here in italy, they make great supermotos, i personaly ride the SWM SM 125R it's a great bike and i've had 0 issues in 2 years of riding and proper care of the machine, but the other types of bikes in their lineup often suffer from rust or stupid issues like sensors going bad or a just little bit of fuel spilled to ruining entire decals.
They use some old Husqvarna projects to build their bikes, my swm sm 125r for example shares a lot of parts and is very similar looking to the Husqvarna 510
That thing sounds great! Nice machine
How much is that bike and is it sold in the US?
That is one angry sounding thumper! I love it!
5:15 Shawn doesn't stop at a stop sign, what a mad man
Love your videos Sean !
Yes tire pressure is huge on knobbies. The less knobbie it is, the less freeway speed wobbles show up. I went from a MotoZ desert HT front tire which anything over 60mph was a nightmare. So I swapped out for the very slightly less aggressive MotoZ Adventure tire. Zero wobbles and only slightly less aggressive. And run about 25psi helps too.
are those ram mount mirrors??
Can y’all make a video on the 2020 kayo t4 pls:)
saw these a couple of years ago but couldn't find anywhere to pick one up... I understand they are great bikes, especially for the money
would you suggest this bike as a first bike for everyday use?
Currently have a 13 BETA 520RR/S ,,gr8 bike and also mimics husky,, but would seriously consider one of these,,,,
Hey Shaun, I'm trying to find a good way to tow my motorcycle and I saw you use a hitch carrier sometimes. It would be great to see a video on how to properly tie down and use this method of towing.
Good question, surely must be a way of towing a bike that doesn't involve a big trailer
Little do most know those hitch things are dangerous and mostly illegal because it obscures the entire rear of vehicle particularly license plate
I hitch carried my KLR all over the country on the back of a rig where I couldn't see it, always scared me. I had like 20 tiedown straps going evry which way, even put a second back up cam just to keep an eye on it. But over 10,000 mikes and never lost it.
What tow plane do you have? The ones that do the banners? Or do you tow behind a military cargo plane? In the mountains a helicopter can pick you up anywhere. Fly safe!
@@yamanator10 I know this is 2 years ago, but you can get lights for them. And you just put your license plate on it.
One question: what’s your camera & Mic setup? Your riding videos are crystal clear for video and audio!
I don’t even like motorcycles but I watch because this guys soo funny and positive. It always makes my day
I just picked up a 2020 Model a few weeks ago....it is Amazing!!
What's your top speed
@@keithherb6016 I haven't tested that out...have been breaking it in.
@@keithherb6016 it's over 100 mph, haven't gone above that yet.
Do you guys have honda astrea or kawasaki kaze r or Yamaha kripton x in America if not try get a kripton x 135cc from EUROPE and see how good are those bikes .
Hey Sean I have a Kawasaki vaquero and I’m looking for a second bike. Something like an adventure bike. Would you suggest this or do you have any others for sale. Please let me know. Thanks,big fan!
This looks like something I’d like to get next bike ever since the accident in dec I haven’t rode anywhere it sucks so much
Nothing beats my old XT 500 thumper with the 14:1 pop-up piston bigger valves and a cam. That was a my fun commuter. Wack the throttle at fifty and she would come up effortlessly. I miss my ole girl. Any YOU brought back those memories.
Love the dual pipes. For once a bike that looks symmetrical mufflerwise.
Have you checked out the yamaha xt660r?
That is a super cool looking bike!
Thanks for introducing us!
Is this based on the TE630 or TR650?
However is as much maintenance as the KTM?
Is the front wheel straight? Even before you said something about the wobble I noticed it on the on ramp. I think you did a great presentation of it. Top notch.. but the BMW Keychain got me...I don't know it something about BMW Keychain with me.
Thanks for the Words Of Wisdom .I can thank My Departed Parents WoW Looks good! . I need to go back to my Roots Riding a 'Dual Sport'.
Words of wisdom??. lol. How much money can I make from selling a bike would be a better explaination. Jesus always liked to make a profit right? The good book says that.
Luv the show. Do you think a 1992 yamaha tdm 850 with 40,000 miles on would be ok
Except it’s big heavy and tall meaning awkward and if u dump it it’s heavy to pick u and since it’s heavy dumping it will mean more damage
Looks like a slimmed down gs, that head shake on the freeway either tires or bad fork geometry
Will you ever do a video on 50cc motorcycles?
That was a solid yellow you ran, totally legit.
That’s a really nice motorcycle. Love it!
Hey im a fan of the old huskys. Nice review.
Less aggressive tires would stabilize the bike nicely. Perhaps you could do a vid on 50/50 and 80/20 tires and the differences in handling in different terrains if you haven't already.
Huskavarna 😂 I love it! Awesome vids
Great video but how does this bike stack up to the Honda XR650L and the Suzuki DR650S
I hade a xr650l and it was a great bike. Definitely going to check the stats on how they both compare.
The Honda is 10 years and the Suzuki is 20 years behind it in tech (esp the Suzuki) and one step less premium, WHEN they came out. Hope I covered your question.
I saw one of these the other day here in central Oz.
When I finally step up from my beloved '07 KLR 650 ... SWM's 650 Superdual is on the top of my list.
Hopefully if I do I will remember that there is a sixth gear. lol
I look for 6th gear on my KLR every time I ride it. Probably not the KLR's fault, I look for 7th gear on my wr250r too.
@@RadRob84
Yeah... Done it :-)
This bike looks great.
Sean, I just got my first bike in 45 years. '21 HD SportGlide. I'm floored by this bike. However, I want to thank you for taking the time to honor the Lord God before each ride. I just subscribed but have watched most of your videos. Before my bike got delivered I promised myself to read the Word before I leave. I think of you now each time too! All riders should ask the Lord for His protection. I find myself thanking Him each ride. I find riding a time where I pray a lot. Every rider that rides by.... I'm lifting them up. I feel really strongly about this: we should all take time to just briefly ask God to protect other riders we see. They have no idea I just prayed for them and that's what I love ! We need as much protection as we can get. Praying that everyone commenting here sees some answered prayer. We all have things going on in our lives. All of us have needs. I'm just so thankful to be riding again. I'm thankful to Sean unashamed of his Faith and inspiring me to follow suit.
Carry On.
Bruh your 45 this isn't high school no need for the essay
@@MoaiHeadEmoji then why the need for your policing?
@@bebopredux lol
Summary: OMG, this man has bought a Harley!
Hi I got a question where are you located in Pennsylvania I would like to go to your place and purchase a motorcycle Appreciate if you can answer me back
I rode across Oz with 13 riders on various bikes in 2013. Two riders had the RS650R SWM ( with Safari tank and a small screen added). They did pretty well until about 2/3 the way , when one died due to a modification failure ( owner said it was his fault), the other one finished the ride. Two 690 KTMs failed to finished the ride. If I didn't have a fully sorted DRZ400E for adventure riding, this would be my next bike. We have had them in Oz for a few years now and they have a loyal following.
cool pointless comment dude... one guy fkd his bike on purpose one was ok! ok sick great info that changes a lot
Road an SWM Mx 250 in 79. It was a ‘78 model with a rotax motor. Preferred it to my ‘78 RM Suzuki.
What's the price and do yall ship?
I've seen SWM recommended on lists that include European market bikes, so definitely heard of them. I'd like to see more of these and Husq in the US with more coverage like you just gave them. I feel that dual sports like this really fit an important niche in the US given all the open land we have. Manufacturers just need to advertise them more and get them to us!
SWM is owned by Chinese company.
They are being built in Italy at the former Husqvarna factory, that’s right, but made of Chinese parts, like the engine.
Keep that in mind.
oh good to know....
Exactly. Overall, not a great bike. Rather have a husky, beta, or gas gas.
I've read that it's Italian-owned with Chinese seed money. The bike is literally a Husqvarna TE630 and the plastic is the only Chinese addition...Rode one yesterday and the components are all high quality...Mikuni EFI etc. I thought it was going to be junk and it's identical to Husky's I've ridden
Of the bikes I have owned the most fun was the honda XL 125 trials. Those things are super light good on road great off road and so much fun :D
Great video. Keep up the scriptures!
