Euro 450 Husqvarna Supermoto Build.

Yes, the brake itself is a little better , but the rotating mass reduction is noticeable, changing direction feels a lot easier , especially in the faster stuff. We ran a BrakeTech Carbon Rotor on an Aprilia a few years ago , and that was unreal, was 300g lighter than the stock disc and made a lot of difference.

It was our first dry test this weekend and we were happy with the outcome. Bike is planted , and the feel from the tubular chassis , as opposed to the Aluminium TM frame is better .

Yes, the pipes are very nice, welding is good, but not ridiculously so, which tells me the penetration is good, and they fit real well



Filter is swapped out for a 3D printed inlet trumpet and a K&N filter



Headers are the same both sides with a plenum added for good measure.



Also added is a Vertex ignition with custom maps for the DVR developed by EvoTech.

Its a way better bike than me, but i reckon we are going to give the lads at the front a bit of grief again, after not making the podium at all last year , after 2 years of being on it pretty much every round.

A little... in the UK it has been in decline for a long time, levelled out now , but tracks are hard to come by... by way of comparison, the test day we just did in Gemany at 235 riders, and 3 weeks ago the first round of the BeNeCup pulled in 187 riders from Belgium and Holland ( and a few brits ).

Just released. new billet Swingarm , fits KTM / Husky 450, SM only.

The racer in me thinks mmmmm, but the engineer in me isnt so sure. And the extra stiffness isnt always what makes a guy at my level faster. Will get some feedback on it though, i know the guy that helped test it.

If you have to ask how much, it isnt for you.. or us either lol

A bit of footage from the weekend test

We will wait and see. Might be a few cheap Suter ones kicking about.. the team that tested them , one of our bikes was ta WC bike of theirs, the other was supplied new by them . Interestingly, they ran stock arms last year , preferring them over all the shortened and strengthened they tested.

So currently sat in the back of the boy's car somewhere in Belgium, on the motorway, watched the SX on my phone , and thought i would update this... first pic is the bike at tech, second is my team colleague , with the new swingarm fitted, and the thirfd is a view of the sand oval part of the track, we come down this straight , on sand ' which they water between races...on slicks, its basically tapped out in 4th , you would be on limiter on MX gearing.... good day for us, had some new guys move up, as they are now 40+ , i passed the guy that won the aeries last year in race 2 .. went 6-5 on the day, which for our first dry race was cool.. the twin discs set up is on point, made paases wher nobody expexted on the brakes on thw asphalt, even with factory Brembo stuff we couldnt do that before. Will hopefully have cam upgrade for next race ao we will ha ve a bit more speed. As a reference, the guy who won the Pro Class who has won WC races , was 8 seconds faster than me, we are within 1.2 of the front guy in our class.

Its very healthy in Europe, maybe not at the top level, but the club level has picked up.. 160 riders for the weekend, over 5 classes, all very competitive, German series is doing well, Swiss seems strong too, out next race will be a street circuit in St Wendel, always a good weekend.

Yeah, A mate of mine has been and done it a couple of times, the double disc front end we have is from his French Championship bike.
