New Dual Sport

I picked up a 2010 Husaberg FE390 from a buddy. It will hopefully fill the gap between the Gas Gas woods weapon and the big 950. I'm thinking it will be the bike I use on dual sport rides where I ride from the house. It will also be the bike I take out west to ride in the Rockies since it has fuel injection.

Look for this bike in an upcoming video.
