Husqvarna TR 650 range

Husqvarna is expanding its road bike portfolio with the launch of the TR 650 Strada and TR 650 Terra.



Both share a liquid-cooled, single-cylinder 652 cc engine borrowed from parent company BMW’s G 650 GS. However, Husqvarna has managed to squeeze an extra 10 bhp (8 kW / 10 PS) out of it, due mainly to a recalibrated fuel injection system, a higher compression ratio and different camshafts. The result is an output of 57 bhp (43 kW / 58 PS) at 7,250 rpm, while peak torque is 60 Nm (44 lb/ft) at 5,750 rpm.



A tubular steel backbone frame, 46 mm diameter upside-down front forks and a steel rear swing-arm are common between both TR models, too.

The TR 650 Strada - an evolution of last year’s Concept Strada - is meant purely for street riding, and it features cast aluminium wheels and standard-fit anti-lock brakes.



By contrast, the Terra has been designed for light off-road use, and it comes equipped with wire-spoked wheels, knobbly tyres and a higher front mudguard. Anti-lock brakes aren’t part of the Terra’s specification, although they can be ordered as a cost option.



Pricing and market introduction dates have yet to be confirmed.
