For Sale (reluctantly) I'm having to fall on my sword and sell my custom built TE449 SPR. I purchased the bike last year after it was built for me by Si Pavey and the guys down at Off Road Skills. I had intended to enter some local and Uk Rallies before exploring events further afield with the ultimate aim of a Dakar entry but to no avail. I've recently started my own business so there's no chance of me getting out and enjoying this bike and it upsets me to see it sitting in my house not being used. Below is all the juicy information on the bike that has come from the guys that built it. ? Husqvarna?ˆ™s latest E2 class production bike forms the basis? for our rally special. Building on the revolutionary G 450 X built? by parent company BMW. the Husqvarna has been developed? and refined into a fantastic race bike. The bike? starts with a very good basis for a rally machine. and with much? improved ?–hlins suspension. frame design as well as the? excellent electronics that BMW introduced. it results in an? extremely reliable and tough machine. Using the experience Simon gained from the 2011? Dakar rally. the bike has been refined and redeveloped? to create what will be one of the strongest and most? reliable race bikes in the field. The team are working closely with Safari Tanks of? Australia and Bianchi Prata Racing from Portugal to developing unique tanks that remove the? sub-frame to solve the major issue Simon suffered? from in last year?ˆ™s Dakar rally. The similarities of the? Husqvarna allow for us to continue the development? from last years bike to create a strong. reliable. comfortable and rideable? race bike that can only come about from years of experience. The bike is one the lightest. most nimble and easy to ride rally bikes about and with a strong. reliable six-speed gear box it?ˆ™s a proven finisher. With one Dakar of testing by former factory rider Pedro Bianchi Prata and Simon?ˆ™s time spent on the BMW the knowledge gained on the bike has shown that it is incredibly strong in stock? Tramadol 50mg? trim and needs just a few minor modifications to be Dakar worthy. The addition of Factory ?–hlins suspension takes the bike to another level too. In an environment where your suspension can be the difference between finishing and going home on an aeroplane there is no better option than to use best suspension you can afford. With settings straight from the factory. that have been gained through their own testing with riders such as David Casteu and the best steering damper on the market. ?–hlins really is the best privateer choice. This truly is one of the best prepared privateer bikes. the level of detail that comes from the Simon?ˆ™s expertise and considerable Dakar experiences have culminated in a Dakar bike that is fit for purpose. Strong. fast. reliable with fantastic suspension and great looks. the TE 449 SPR is as good to ride as anything else on the market. On top of this Simon and Chief mechanic Evan Davies have worked extremely hard to produce a bike that is as easy as possible to work on. by making the entire bike incredibly simple. The TE 449 SPR is a work of art. So as you can see this no ordinary bike and would suit someone with ambitions of the adventures I had when it was purchased. ? Since its purchase it has been kept in our house. much to my wife's annoyance and has genuinely only covered around 20 miles. none of which were in the wet. It is showroom condition from front to back. The bike was not cheap. and I have no intention of giving it away so please do not waste my time or your own. The bike is in Suffolk and if you're generally interested in looking I'm more than happy to arrange a viewing but please remember it a viewing with an interest in buying. not to make a ridiculous offer. If you live a fair way away and purchase the bike I've no problem in meeting you somewhere in-between. ? Spec Sheet. Make: Husqvarna. Model: TE 449. Capacity: 449cc.
