Is interesting to me how much the Husky is varying from test to test... Some 2/3 or some 5/6.... And yet really similar to the KTM.

Mind you, pretty funny in the highlights for the YZ they highlight highlight the rearward reversed cylinder cylinder

I thought Kawi was gonna grab second spot.

The relatively small gap in HP between them really is a non-issue for 99% of riders.

Yeah, 5 years and a redesign has done a lot for that motor configuration. I remember people calling it the worst idea ever conceived, but now seem to like it.
