Show Nordic

[VäinämÜinen]

salutare,

sunt nou pe acest site, adica abia acum mi-am luat inima in dinti sa imi fac un cont, dar citesc cu mare atentie toate topicurile. voi posta la coltul enduristilor deoarece simt ca asta e ceea ce imi place. vreau sa incerc deocamdata sa vad cum se misca, daca reusesc sa incarc si poze, iar dupa aceea voi reveni cu detalii. mentionez pentru inceput ca este vorba de cea mai mare expozitie moto din tarile nordice, a avut loc timp de 4 zile in Suedia la Goteborg, si a adunat aproape 150.000 de vizitatori(dupa spusele lor). voi reveni cu detalii. Pana atunci, ma bucur ca ma aflu printre voi.

VäinämÜinen e considerat in mitologia nordica drept creatorul pamantului, potrivit unor surse, iar conform altora e un batranel simpatic care calatoreste mereu fara incetare. Evident ca mi-am ales nick-ul pentru al doilea sens.

oare Husaberg sau Husqvarna de ce s-au "nascut" in Suedia? ma gandesc ca or fi vrut sa faca ciocolata , bere sau ceasornicarie, da' le-or fi luat-o altii inainte si nu le-a mai ramas decat sa reinventeze roata?

era doar o gluma, nu-i asa?

depinde.. ai gustat-o?

 

mi se pare ceva retoric :... la coltul enduristilor, sa iei Suedia peste picior, parca nu prea da bine!

@dirtbike - vezi ca galbenii nu stiu de gluma cand vine vorba de cea mai mica aluzie la obiectul lor de cult

lasand cultele la o parte , gluma n-a fost a mea:

 

"QUOTE(bside @ Feb 1 2008, 10:14 AM) *

Se pare ca a ajuns incalzirea globala si la voi. Cam cate zile aveti de sezon moto in Suedia ? "'

 

asta mi sa parut o ironie, si poate ca n-am fost eu prea explicit. pe scurt, pana nu se zburleste nimeni : belgienii fac o bere excelenta si o ciocolata la superlativ, elvetienii ceasuri (sau faceau odata) , iar suedezii se pare ca au

o mancarime pt drujbe.. probabil au fost primii care nu si-au pus problema sezonului in enduro .. de aceea le-o fi iesit asa bine, nu?

Have you ever wondered why your Berg engine looks so similar to the Huskie ones?

 

Let's learn a little bit more of Husqvarna history.

 

Husqvarna was born more than 300 years ago. Swedish King Charles XI ordered the construction of a factory on the banks of the Husqvarna River, in JĂśnkĂśping to produce muskets. Water power was harnessed from the Huskvarna River to create the water-powered plant. The name Huskvarna was derived from "house mill", "hus" meaning house and "kvarn" meaning mill. The word itself can be traced back at least to the year 1529. (credits goes to husqvarna.com)

 

Since then they have made sewing machines, outboard power plants, chainsaws, bicycles... and what we love: Dirt bikes. They began making bikes around 1903 and until the late eighties they achieved great success with several world championships having been won.

 

They made some of the finest Enduro bikes of this century and also the mother of all (or many) today's 4 strokers. The 510's watercooled engine.

 

 

................................................

 

And now Mr. Thomas Gustavsson

(and some former Husqvarna's engineers) contribution to the motorcycle history.

 

In Husqvarna facilities these guys were re-inventing the 4stroke concept. By this time, husqvarna financial figures were bad and the bike section losses worried Swedish group Electrolux who was seeking a buyer (like BMW had done with Rover). What happened if, as I said above, they made good and competitive machines? It happened to Bultaco and Montesa and many Spanish dirtbike factories. The japanese, too old facilities, high prices, recession and lack of flexibility to survive. They were integrated (non-integrated) inside a large industrial group with a wide range of products, serving diferent markets and this is against one of the non mutable laws of marketing. FOCUS.

Husaberg Motor is founded

 

 

And so they did. They founded Husaberg Motor AB (officially registered in January 1988). Why they called it Husaberg can be found on the factory web page. For those of you too lazy, here it goes:

 

"The name of the company is actually borrowed from the place of the first pre-production plant; an old cow-shed, situated on the peninsula Husabergs Udde. Although moved from the original location years ago, the company is still in the neighbourhood, just some 30 km Northwest of the northern peak of the lake Vättern. A surrounding more or less designed for dirtbikes (and moose) and in the heart of the Swedish race tracks and clubs."

 

Although Husaberg was the name they finally registered it was not the first denomination. This was HMA ("as opposed to HVA with is Husqvarna" Ove remarks).

PS: mie imi plac toate bicicletele cu motor, dar in special cele care nu merg pe drum asfaltat

Hei trupa,

 

Nu mi-am dorit un ton ironic. Si eu am vizitat Suedia e drept era septembrie frig si noaptea lunga.

Imi cer scuze dar nu mi-am dorit sa ofensez pe nimeni. Speram doar sa gustati gluma.

[floricel]

dada, las' ca stim noi... ai vrut sa ne ofensezi.
