BS-BATTERY EUROPEAN OFFICE Paris, FRANCE Tel: [phone] [email protected] www.bs-battery.com GPR for ‘Husky’ GPR have developed a range of exhaust options for the recently launched Husqvarna Terra Tr 650. The product line-up includes a dual slip-on, available in different materials and colours, and a full line to change the Terra Tr 650 to a single exhaust. The single exhaust is the key feature in the product range, offering a weight saving of between 6-8kg, dependent on the material selected; stainless steel, carbon fibre or titanium. A second benefit is a power increase of 1hp in road legal configuration, and more importantly without remapping the GPR full line removes the stock ‘hole’ in the low rpm range. The noise is in the European limit and the db killer supplied with spark arrestor for the US market. GPR is working on a storage case to fit the right side of the bike where the stock exhaust has been removed. GPR ITALIA SRL Cerro al Lambro (MI), ITALY Tel: [phone] [email protected] www.gpr.it
