Those TM's are also nice
https://www.powerwheelie.de/index.php?/ … ment-95540
The SMR 450 has 63 PS and the 530 70PS.
(The 530 has 33KW in the vehicle ID Card, but then you can pull out the Throttle blocker and you have 70 PS on the Backwheel).
Hehe, the TM 125 Smr, ... that little beast

Nice and entertaining video.
I can feel how much more fun he had riding it than anybody watching this video.

A Husaberg FS 570 (Original Monobike, 70HP).
And a Husaberg FE 570 (Enduro rebuilt to Monobike, 70HP).

STILL have my "old" 1989 KDX (Kawasaki) I bought brand new. Runs well for its age, starts in 1 or 2 kicks every time. Added Boyesson Rad Valve, Quick twist throttle, high performance ignition, expansion chamber and a few other goodies. Have a set of Trelleborg tires for snow. Can keep up with some snowmobiles, if less than a foot of snow. Over a foot and sleds blow me away. Got a box-o-tacks (ICE tacks) for running on the ice. NOTHING in the world, equals the feeling of going into a corner at 25 miles per hour on the ice, at the apex, twisting the throttle and riding the rest of the turn with front wheel up, on the ice, completing the corner on rear wheel only. NOTHING like that feeling. Its an adrenaline rush for lovers!!!
We also spent our cash on Cam II fuel when riding Enduro runs. That was some expensive fuel. Today I just use 93 Octane.

Yeah, right
We all know your O'Lady aint gonna let you have a bike

Today i let a friend drive my Bike.
When he came back, i swear, he was 5 years younger
...

And now you're recruiting for a motorcycle gang, SMH

...
Yesterday i was testing this Bike.
The Bike was completly rebuilt, Motorrevision was made, every other technical thing too.
But sadly to drive it was not as i thought before.
The Tires are dangerous, and the power sobering.
My Husqy plays in a complete other Liga.
But to admit, ... the carburetor of this 640 was not very good adjusted and the nature of the Motor is anyway different.
Anyway, the Bike looks great, you sit very comfortable, but the technology difference is huge, compared to the 510 SMR.

lol Tookie, what's with the asterisks?

Btw. If some of you also think about a Bike, you should try an SWM SM 500 R.
It's exactly the same bike like the Husqvarna SMR 510, but new it's only around 7000 Euro. (510 SMR was 14.000 Sfr. in 2012)
Open you have 43 KW and 49 NM at the back Wheel and it's a durable Bike not like KTM's EXC or similar which cost 15.000 Sfr.
(SumoWheels, brakes etc you have to buy yourself at KTM's and they are not that durable.)
And it's a little Beast with its 109 KG. It goes off like a Racing Bike.
2020 Modell
2019 and older Modells

I drive with Heidenau K73 Sio2
It's a Rain Tire, made with Silicon instead of smut.
It's a great tire, it holds from 4° Celsius, ... sadly it holds just 1000km (With the Husky)
Except if it's really hot, then you should perhaps remind it.
I drove the whole Winter when it was more then 2-3 + and i had never problems.
No need to warm up the tires.
But the best thing is, ... it looks totally cool

how do you call that awesome statue? It must have a name.
...
Sherco has a finally a Supermoto too. (11560.- Sfr.)
And if you want to buy a KTM Exc 500, you have to buy Wheels, Breaks, etc and it will cost 15.000.- Sfr at the end for a Bike which is not that durable like the 500R/510.
...
The other thing is, that at KTM's EXC you have ~12-14 KW in the vehicle ID and the Sherco is, i guess not much better. (In the best case 22KW or so, like the TM's. Ok the TM 530 has 33KW in the ID.
That means if you get controlled by Police it's not that easy as with the Huskys/SWM. (Nobody drives around with just ~13 KW )
The 2005 of Husqy SM510 have 43KW in the ID, and all others later 22-25KW, also the SWM. (Open 43KW).
The only thing you have to make on those is to remove the GasWireBlocker.
...
The TM are also Beats, ... the 450 has 65PS and the 530 75PS. (2020 the 530 is disappeared).
But they are also not that durable like the SWM/Huskys.
https://www.tmracing.it/supermoto/

I guess i will test soon a KTM/Husky 300 2T.

That's just a thief.
I catched her, when she tried to steal my Bike.
...
...
The only ugly thing at SWM's is the number holder and the back.
But that's easy to fix.
Cut or remove that useless plastik and put the number directly under the backlight.

Just saw that the Sherco Motor Technology is also newer.
They have i guess more KW in the ID as the KTM's
...
...
Btw.
Here is a really good site.
You can find all Occassion bikes in Europe per country if you like. (Choosable in the Search-Mask on Top)
Here an example of a Husky SMR 510

Do you also have street bikes Arkos?
Btw - MotoGP is scheduled to return July 19 in Jerez.
The good news with this short season is that there will now be a race nearly
every weekend, rather than the normal every-other-weekend pre-Covid.
...
Arghh.. now i got it.
You asked about street bikes not Tires
I had 30 years ago a 1100 GSX-R with 142 PS.
But it is not that funny like a low weight Supermoto.
30 years ago it was somehow more then 8 times less traffic then today. But even then, ... in the 1st gear that tool made 120.
Too dangerous.
A light Supermoto is just great and i don't go on the Highway, where you can drive 120 here.
Usually max is 80km/h, that means you don't loose the license up to 112.
With a Bike like mine you have the fun from 15KM/h and the Acceleration/Handling is just great.
That Package fits for me.

Here a short vid with a Modell before 2016.
There's one difference. Mine has legally 92 DB. Those newer SWM's not. They have NoiseBlocker installed.
I miss a little bit the sound. Perhaps he didn't remove them.
Nope, that Bike is not opened i guess. Just 22KW.
Wrong, they wrote opened.

Mine sounds more like this.
https://youtu.be/CI616wR20OU?t=33
I made once a vid too, but that crap had no sound. ( iPhone 5 )
I guess this is also a 2009 Modell, like mine.
But the best is anyway the Intake Noise.

Ok, now i guess everybody got it.
I really like my Bike
...
...
Tomorrow i go test a TM 530 2016.
Somewhat over 70 PS.
...
...
Ya, ... that was nice.
I was driving today those two bikes.
First was the TM 530
But it was the 2016 Model, (450 Chassis, (same as the 530), but with a 530 Kit Motor).
https://www.motoscout24.ch/de/d/tm--occ … 26page%3D2
It's a Monster
...
And this Caballero 500.
https://www.motoscout24.ch/de/d/fantic- … id%3D67046
That's a Bike, you can just buy and drive. Good for everything.
The handling is great, it's easy to drive and comfortable, makes really fun and you can go easely on the Highway with that one.
...
I told him if he sells the TM 530 for 7000.- i would take it. A new one is around 11-12'000.- here.
The Bike is standing at this Moto Dealers place but it's a Privat Sell.

You know, accidents can allways happen, yes.
As example, ... an oncoming vehicle cross your side or someone crashes into you an other way.
The rest is in your own responsibility.
I was talking with a friend some days ago. He mentioned all those guys, (in our age, from those old times), which are not living any more or have some heavy sicnesses.
If im right, there is no one, who was killed by accident.
Sucid, yes, by train, or guns. 2 of my closest friends killed themself by Guns, (when i was 24).
There are some others too but they were not that close.
And between the past years you hear allways again from someone who died because of a Lung infection (in Hospital) or other sicnesses.
There was one case of a friend, ... his 20+ year younger Girlfriend went to the Work, Monday Morning, ... did not watch the pedestrian stripes and died instantly when a car catched here.
(You know, here the pedestrians have the right of way, ... but that does not mean, you have not to watch before you cross the street).
As i said, you can't control other peoples actions in the road traffic, but at least you can drive foresighted. By foot, Cycle or Moto you are the weakest part in traffic.
But if something happends, ... ofc i would want to sit in that moment in my old, 2050kg S6, instead flying of my bike, i do not know into what.
...
Btw. The first of those 2 when i was 24, shot himself with a Magnum 44, borrowed from another friend, (the other guy thought for testing), and the worst thing is, ... i just drived by the place he was, in a restaurant, late night , i just came home from work in the montains, was driving 3.5 hours, had an intuition, i should go inside, he will be there for sure, did not listen to my thought, (i was only at home for somehow 12h before i went again to the mountains), and the next night a friend was calling me at 2 am and told me what happend.
He payed to everyone inside a drink, said, "tomorrow i won't need any money anymore", went home and shot himself.
I thought, what if i would have listen to my inner voice, met him that night, ... for years.
(But, ... between the past 2 years, from time to time, he tried to get info, which kind of weapons it needs to be sure it kills yourself.)
The other guy could not handle that situation very well, like most of us, but when he had some serious problems with his Girlfriend some months later, he shot himself with his own STGW57.
