new 125?

[gasgas200]

Does anyone know if it will be likely that gasgas will use the Husky engine in a 125 next year?

I thought it was only the 4T technology they bought from KTM. But I could be wrong

They did buy the 125 tech.

It will be interesting to see what shows up next year. I like the husky 125 engine, plus they have the 144 option.

and the 165 bb kits

The husky 125 based engines really are sweet little buzz bombs. They just need to ditch the cable clutch. Other than that, they're the best there is.

I have a couple friends who have the Husky 125 built to 165 and they love them. These guys also have the Husky 501`s.

The 125 Husky is a great little motor. Its bulletproof as well.

According to what the new distributor posted here recently they will be using Husky 125 T and 250/310 4T engines next year on some bikes.

I have a Husky WB165. There's nothing wrong with their cable clutch. In fact, it has a very light pull (single finger). Much lighter than the hydraulic clutch on my previous GG EC250. Why do you say they need to ditch the cable? Just curious.

Haha, I'm not getting into that debate! Some folks like their cables, I don't like them. Both have their pros and cons.
Try the clutch pull on a 2012 and newer GG. The cables can never even come close to that. I've ridden enough Husky 125s to know how good & bad their cables are.

No problem. I guess that my bike was fortunate enough to get a good cable and actuation system.

It looks like there could be one in the pipeline then. When gasgas got the engines did they also get the rights to use the Husqvarna frames?

I'll take a gasser frame over a husky frame any day.

Sorry, I didn't mean that some bikes are good and some aren't, but rather that there is pros and cons to a cable system on every bike that has them.
There are also pros and cons to juice clutches as well.
