WHAT HUSQVARNA MOTORCYCLES TECHNICAL ACCESSORIES WILL YOU USE ON YOUR TRIP , AND WHY THOSE PRODUCTS SPECIFICALLY ?
“ The Technical Accessories range contains a lot to customise and upgrade your bike , but keeping in mind we really want to keep the weight of our bikes to a minimum , we try to focus on the essentials that really make a difference to the kind of riding we are doing .”
LONG RANGE FUEL TANK :
“ This adds 12 litres to the fuel capacity and extends the range to easily over 500 km . This is a no brainer for us , as the standard 13 litre tank is just not enough to make it to the next petrol station in some remote areas . Also , when a track turns out to be blocked , you want enough fuel to make it all the way back .”
FORK AND SHOCK SPRINGS :
“ We specify stiffer front and rear springs to make up for the extra weight of the tank and the luggage on the back .”
PIVOT PEGZ :
“ These allow for easier gear shifting and braking while sitting down on the bike .”
