Some history When, in 1987, Italian Cagiva took over Husquvarna the Swedish engineers decided to design a completely new bike: Husaberg was born. Limited funds boosted ingenuity and a rather unusual bike saw the light. Mid 90's KTM was shopping around for new 4-stroke technology and decided to buy Husaberg. Fabrication of the bikes was brought over to Mattighoven , Austria . The development department stayed in Sweden . KTM used quit a lot of the Husaberg engine design for their EXC models that were launched in 2000. Even until today many KTM part numbers can be found in the Husaberg parts manual.
By the way, did you know that Husaberg came up with the "ready to race" slogan? (with thanks to Wickipedia, the online encyclopaedia)
Husabergs are finished with A-brands like: WP suspension, Twinair airfilters, Magura handlebars, Exel wheel rims, Brembo brakes, keihin carbs.
Algarve-Offroad has added a few extras: sump plate, Bark busters, Socks for the front suspension, 19" rear wheels.
In order to keep our motorbikes in top condition we don't skimp on maintenance. At the beginning of each week every motorbike is given a new rear tyre, clean oil and new filters.
It makes the bikes one of the lightest in the market. The Husaberg engineers went through great lenghts to concentrate all the weight of the bike as low as possible. The result is one of the best handling bikes around. Easy on novice riders, big fun for experienced riders.
