21.01.2022 CHAD REED: IMAGES TO MATCH And here are the images to go with that whopper Chad Reed story below. The two fresh images of Reedy are from yesterday when he met the CDR Yamaha team and all the staff of Yamaha’s Sydney HQ thanks Col for the pix. Meanwhile the classic podium pic is from 2001 at the Supercross Masters grand final at Homebush at the very same venue Reedy will race at this weekend. The legend’s been at it for a fair while, yeah!

17.01.2022 SWM RS 650R TO HIT THE AUSSIE ADV MARKET AND THE PRICE IS RIGHT Did you ever wonder what happened to all that technology that was invested in the Husqvarna brand when the bikes were built in Italy, before being taken over by the Austrian KTM Group? Well, the once famous SWM brand that was a major player in the world enduro scene many, many moons ago, is being resurrected and with former Italian Husqvarna staff onboard, it’s little surprise the latest SWMs bear more than a p...assing resemblance to Husqvarnas of a few years ago. SWM’s new RS 650R adventure bike has just landed in Australia and yep, it’s more than similar to the former Husqvarna TE630. Equipped with quality components such as Brembo brakes, GET ignition and Mikuni throttle body feeding the 600cc liquid-cooled engine that drives a six-speed transmission, the RS 650R is quite the performer. The ample power on tap is supported by a Sachs shock and Marzocchi fork providing a comfortable ride both on and off-road. The Husqvarna heritage in this SWM RS 650R is a great thing, says SWM Brand Manager Stephen Tuff. Not only are there plenty of old TE630 fans out there looking to update to a similar machine, there’s already a number of quality accessories available for this bike including a 25-litre Safari Tank, bash plates from B&B Off-Road and Force Accessories, and mufflers from Barrett Exhaust. The SWM RS 650R tips the scales at 144kg and with a DOHC engine that can pump out strong, usable power you have a bike capable of munching through endless miles of adventure. Whether it’s the bucket-list ride around Australia or weekend escapes or running to and from work, the RS 650R is the perfect multi-purpose machine. The SWM RS 650R is LAMS approved and is available now at an introductory price of $8,990 including GST plus on-road costs. The introductory offer will run until the end of January, 2016.
