Husqvarna 900R video

#1 Unread post by QuietMonkey »

promo vid for the Husky 900R Nuda ... a little more interesting than there chainsaws...



but then again if it was a 900cc 2-stroke it'd be a great reminder of the full power of a chainsaw with wheels... but they're probably building 4-stroke chainsaws now too... :sniff:

Damned if this one isn't starting to grow on me too. Another bike that looks better is straight black though....

Not the prettiest bike by any stretch of the imagination but compared to the Diavel, it almost looks as good as a NR750 or a 916. :laughing:

pardon me.. i was just dreaming of the good ol' days :-) and the rare moments when they break through into the present, like when Renault F1 engineer used a 2-stroke 700cc (or was it 800cc?) Polaris snowmobile engine as the motor for his Formula Extreme class racing bike... his name was Tulie and he called it a Tularis... let's see...

hmm.. vid from a fairly recent issue of MCN:

I always thought the H2 would get the starring role if they ever made a movie called "The Attack of the Killer Chainsaws". :mrgreen:

So much for a Husky Nuda thread ;-) since i remembered a nice 2-stroke Kawi Triple (H2 750) in a '90s era ZX7R chassis featured in Cycle Canada a few years ago. A great blend of 1970s crazy engine with solid '90s chassis.

let's see what google finds... yep, here's a zx7 with h1 or h2 engine:
