Husqvarna took a brand new model at the EICMA: it is a concept called Moab that combines vintage looks with modern technology.
Husqvarna color scheme choice and many other details reinforce the idea that the manufacturer sees the Moab as present day version of the mighty H400 model ridden by Steve McQueen on a famous cover of Sports Ilustrated in 1966, a move that made that bike an instant reference point for all off-road bikes for years to come.
The name comes from a desert area in Utah which is very popular amongst off-road enthusiasts.
Husqvarna Concept Moab is equipped with a 650 cc engine fitted in a perimeter frame, progressive linkage on the swingarm, 17″ rims and semi-knobbly tyres which make it perfect for off-road use.
ncastonato in un telaio perimetrale, con monotrave anteriore e forcellone dotato di sospensione a progressività variabile.
