A lot of fun, but it looks homeless?
It would make a good commuter in heavy traffic.

Well, where does it belong?
It looks like a dirt bike but isn't.
It looks like a road bike, but isn't.
It would be fun on the mountain twisties tho'
I think it was made for 'blasting' around 'somewhere' for short periods of time.
Maybe that's all the reason needed to build it.

I had a great time on the F800R and it looks like the Husky is based on that bike. Not as practical as the BMW but should be a blast to ride.

With a Dunstall type fairing and a bump stop seat and some clip ons it could appeal to me.
