Design and build your own custom off road bike, in the US!

I posted this on ADV, so same stuff if you saw it there.

US Highland Motorcycles
I was reading about these in the current Dirt Bike magazine today. Pretty cool. Husaberg/Husky roots to Sweden design, built in the US to your order specs. Here's the real kicker, a SE like bike you can get in 750/950 and a 1050 in development. All top notch specs and components.

They will custom build a dirt tracker, Motoard, Enduro or Rallye bike and of course a Dual Sport! I'm sure they cost alittle more, but you woulnd't need any performance parts.

saw this on the NVTR mailing list too - man, that is sweet! If I read the specs right, their 950 v-twin is only 281 pounds!

All I need is another obsession.... They look really cool too...

....For those of you familiar with Highland, you might be saying, "Hey, wait a minute, Highland is from Sweden." Well, "from" is the operative word since the company has been reorganized and relocated to Tulsa and established as US Highland. The Chairman of US Highland is Bengt Andersson, former CEO of Husqvarna, the President is Mats Malmberg who founded Highland Motorcycles AB of Sweden in 1997 and who, along with former motocrosser, Chase Bales, formed the new US Highland. The company will be building a range of singles and V-Twins for both off road and street applications. V-Twins are 750, 950 and 1050cc, singles are 350, 450 and 507cc.

I'd be real interested to see what their 750 is like... It could be the right blend and a good all arounder...

A 750 Adv bike could be pretty darn cool.

If you put a value on your time, that has to be way more cost-effective than building your own medium-displacement ADV bike!

I hope the motors demonstrate reliability!!
