RUST magazine: 2017 Husqvarna Special

RUST tests the 2017 Husqvarna enduros. The new model season continues, this time it’s the turn of Husqvarna. And so RUST travels to Husqvarna – the town – in Sweden, to connect with Husky’s heritage and to test its future. It’s all new engines, all new chassis for the 2017 enduros, so there’s a lot to discuss – and to evaluate. Do they make the grade? Only one way to find out... Happy reading!
