A tweaked Rocket 3. Hitchcox pipes.

Not bad looking for a huge lump of a bike.

I think the newer 2.5 is a hell of a better looking bike than the 2.3. Heavy though.

I think it's rare to see a bike ad which is so much just a list of red flags - every word and every picture. Also an outrageous price for a bike in that condition / mileage.

This is for sale on Friendface marketplace, the description says it's a "Classic Husqvarna Enduro tribute".

I don't get the Husky thing, but imho it's a pretty cool looking thing (for a Himalayan).

I remember the Hillman Husky.

Now there’s a Himalayan Husky.

Those tyres would be shite on the road unless you're piddling about. There's absolutely no redeeming features on that thing for me.
