The future is bright (again) ...

.... but still not orange!

I collected my new 2011-spec Husaberg FE570 today. It's just a shame that I can't ride it until 1 September - but there's a box of bling to be fitted first!

Why bother with the bling, they're a race bike straight out the packet....unless of course you mean fitting a heavy duty rear leaf spring

Very nice btw,

 

[Greg Masters]

Why bother with the bling ...

• Gutbucket rear spring
• Mousses
• Fan kit
• Engine mapping selector switch
• Fork bleeders
• Handguards
• Sumpguard
• Steering damper*
• GPS mount and wiring

* I don't think that any of what I had fits (apart from the damper itself)

Have you forgotten

heated grips
bar risers
optimate
pivot pegs


Whats the point of buying one of these then getting a mapping switch ! just leave it on full power.



this is one reason why i could bring myself to swap my 450 for a new bike as I have to bling up again !


When are we going out to get it dirty ?

When are we going out to get it dirty ?

My thoughts exactly....

I was thinking of a pre-Spain trial ride, how about 4th or 5th September? Nothing too wet , maybe the Plum Pudding route....

Heated grips?? I think you're confusing me with Timolgra.
Bar risers - come with the steering damper mount.
Optimate - fit the plug tonight
Pivot Pegz - ready to be fitted

You can't get full power without the mapping switch.

and neoprene ? there is no mention of neoprene. there has to be neoprene

You can't get the softest setting without the switch either!

All the bling except the steering damper is now fitted:

• Gutbucket rear spring
• Michelin Desert front and AC10 rear
• Michelin mousses
• Fan kit
• Engine mapping selector switch
• Fork bleeders
• Handguards
• Sumpguard
• GPS mount and wiring
• Pivot Pegz
• Exhaust wrap
• High level rear end
• Optimate wiring

Today, being after 1 September, I took it for a gentle ride down a couple of lanes this evening.

I managed to rip off the Optimate socket with my boot buckle (have got 3 x new plugs in garage but no new sockets ) and I need to move the bars up and forward. Now it gets an oil change and it's good to go to Spain!

I had a blast on RickA's 570 yesterday, if you want to see one blinged up then his is the one

Rox risers, Vapour trail, steering damper, extra fuel tank, mapping switch, heated grips, fan, etc etc etc....very nice to ride
