Husqvarna Baja concept set for production

Husqvarna has shown this Baja concept bike which is almost certainly tipped for production within the next year – much like the similar Moab concept bike shown last November.

The Baja uses the 650cc single-cylinder engine from the BMW G650GS and shares many of its components with the Moab. The Baja, however has a more off-road focus, with knobbly tyres, an engine sump guard and dirt-bike-style front mudguard.

Although Husqvarna is officially making no announcements about the production future of either concept at this stage, company spokesman Martino Bianchi told MCN at the Milan Show that the Moab was a year away from production.
