How cool is this Husqvarna Mille 3 Concept? Below you can see live pics from EICMA of the cross between a cruiser and a motard and as a pure design exercise, we love it.
The retro style is not all this is about, though, as Husqvarna has decided to use three cylinders from its usual range making a V-triple, 930cc set-up.
The chassis is a sleek, low affair with a central tube and then a twin-beam structure with aluminium support at the rear.
The cruiser look and big wheels might lull you into thinking this is a roughly put together concept but the guys at Husqvarna have bothered to include some supersports aspects like top-end brakes, adjustable suspension and twin exhaust.
And it looks very smooth and sexy despite its evident dirt bike inspiration.
The Mille 3 Concept deservingly drew quite a crowd – check it out in the pics below.
