I received an e mail back from Stephan of Scheffelmeier Metall today and he said that all he needs to do is make an adapter for the front frame mount and Terra owners will be able to use his range of XChallenge bash plates.

Also said, " I will offer all parts I make for the G650X for the new Husqvarna 650 models too soon!"

http://www.bashplates.de/BMW-G-650-X...untry:::1.html

He also has started making an oil cooler for the BMW / Husky 650.

I used a lot of his parts on my XCH and can recommend them over Touratech etc confidently.

$500.00 cash back on all huskys starting today. Includes Terra!
Also comes with an "accessories" pack which would more accurately be called a merchandise pack as it has a mug, cap and key ring. Promo runs untill March.

I already had a test ride booked in for tomorrow morning and was notified of the current promo by the dealer....I'm going to end up being dog meat I think

Something interesting I noticed on the Husky website, they are advertising that a large fuel tank is under development

I wonder if it will be an exclusive deal with Safari selling a big tank through Husqvarna like they do with Yamaha or if it is coming from the factory?
