Husqvarna
Concept MOAB
The
Husqvarna Concept MOAB is the modern re-interpretation of the scrambler, the
bike that lies at the heart of the Husqvarna history and its unique style.
Tradition, style, and performance. These are the features that captured the
identity and shaped the history of the brand that became the model and
reference point for all off-road bikes in the sixties and seventies. The
Husqvarna MOAB can trace its origins to our models from that period, legendary
bikes that are milestones in the history of off-road biking, especially in the
U.S.
This
is one reason for the name MOAB, after the evocative desert in Utah, which
every year draws huge numbers of offroad bikers and provides the eerie
background for the sets of many cult movies. The red tank, the spacious seat,
the yellow side panel number holders, the simple stripped-down frame these all
form the essence of the new incarnation of the Husqvarna spirit. The Husqvarna
Concept MOAB has a 650 cc engine on a perimeter frame and progressive linkage on
the swingarm. The wheels are 17 inches and the tyres are semi-knobbly, and
therefore suitable for off-road use.
