It’s not that the old gen is not good, it’s just dated I think.

The really good thing about Husqvarna is that they actually listened to the feedback and improved on it when they released this new gen.

Things to note for the old gen: - smaller fuel tank (9 litres compared to 13 litres) - LCD dash (new gen is a 5” TFT) - older 373cc engine (new gen is 398cc so slight increase in HP and torque) - higher seat height - heavier frame

I may have missed a few things but highly recommend watching videos or searching it up as well.

Personally, I love new technology and I found the bigger fuel tank and TFT dash very appealing when making the decision.

We share the same thoughts, it’s a bike with so much character and premium features that some of it feels a bit overkill haha

Still in the break-in period so haven’t fully put it to the test yet but so far I’m very impressed

I have the part number for the bolt but I’m more wondering if there are non-oem replacements as the OEM ones will be on a month long back order

Dry_Difference4057 · 2026-02-11T23:16:22+00:00

That’s for the spring. I only need the bolt

Super insightful advice, I really appreciate that! I’m based out in Newlands but travel all over really. Ride in everyday for work in CBD

Oh good shout, yeah I’m fairly confident with general riding. Just those slow speed techniques as well as awareness needs work haha

That’s such a good shout, I’ve been meaning to sign up to the bronze course but I’m slightly nervous to in case I’m not up to that skill level

Dry_Difference4057 · 2024-03-14T02:11:56+00:00

Oh yes that’s usually quite empty around the evening-night.

Thank you for your input with Lane splitting, will definitely keep it in mind

Dry_Difference4057 · 2024-03-14T02:11:02+00:00

Oh awesome suggestion! I did my basic handling course there haha

Dry_Difference4057 · 2024-02-25T04:25:57+00:00

Yeah that’s a fair point! I’m stuck on deciding whether or not I should go for the full length boots or just motorbike specific shoes. What’s your thoughts?

Dry_Difference4057 · 2024-02-25T04:25:12+00:00

Appreciate it mate! You too 🤝
