If you go to that page, Husky has a contest and the winner and a friend if I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, win a trip to Sweden to ride the new 701. That would be fun! So may be if you win Ken, you can take me and I'll shoot a video of you leaning it down and scraping your knee on the ice (as you fall! :lol2: )

Here's the words form the 701 website:
Husqvarna Motorcycles will take you and your friend to Sweden, where you’ll experience the pure essence of riding: the Ice Experience with the brand new 701 SUPERMOTO – on a frozen lake.

Just answer a few simple questions, fill out the form and you'll be one step closer.

PLEASE READ OUR TERMS & CONDITIONS BEFORE YOU START

I could go for some cold right now that's for sure. I think I've been pushing myself towards heat exhaustion again (which I did last year and took like 3 weeks to recover from). Putting a timer on my phone now to remind me to drink water...

That 701 looks like a lot of fun. One of these days I'll have a supermoto to play on. I suspect it would be easier to lose my license with a supermoto than with my cbr1krr though... ;)

I have a blast when I am out on my SM610. Once I put a Seat Concepts seat on it, it became so much more fun to ride. And yes, I find myself doing things I would never do on my litre bike. Love being able to jump curbs, cross dirt and off road areas easily etc. Definitely a blast when tooling around DC.
