The latest news coming from Husqvarna motorcycle manufacturer, which is a subsidiary of BMW, with the launch of a sport-cruiser motorcycle concept, named Mille 3, which will fulfill the dreams of Husqvarna motorcycle enthusiasts.
Mille 3 uses 3-cylinder engine with a capacity of 933cc with a standard crankcase. But because this machine uses a separate cooling system (two cylinders using one system, and the other cylinders positioned vertically), then impressed that the machine used by Mille 3 is only using single cylinder.

Body shape inspired by the off road Husqvarna motorcycle, while its wheel and brake devices as applied in supermoto, but there is a difference is the use of wide tires like a cruiser. The chassis is made of steel as if recalling memories of Husqvarna design central "tubone", which formed a single chassis. And aluminum swing arm will shore up the back of the bike so that the chassis remains elevated.
Distance between the two wheels on the concept bike is far enough, and saddle position also quite low. But the sophisticated braking system, adjustable suspension, and a powerful dual exhaust system, makes Husqvarna Mille 3 withdrawal like a true motor sport. The position of the footrest in place slightly to the rear, and handlebar-like off road motorcycle handlebar make rider posture looks energetic and aggressive.
