2015 SWM SUPERDUAL[edit | edit source]
The new SWM SuperDual has more than just a passing resemblance to the 2012 Husqvarna TE630. Underneath the new bodywork is the same water-cooled and fuel-injected 600cc DOHC single pumping out roughly 50 horsepower, with a wide-ratio 6-speed to match — the same motor to be used in the new AJP PR7. The SWM SuperDual runs on Marzochi front forks and Sachs rear shock, providing 8.3 inches (210mm) of suspension travel in the front and 10.6 inches (270 mm) in the rear. SWM has confirmed that the SuperDual will first become available in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, then in the second half of 2016 it will arrive in the USA.
2016 SWM SUPERDUAL[edit | edit source]
The Superdual is motivated by one of these engines, namely the one that used to power the 2012 model year Husqvarna TE630. Without fuel, the new SWM tips the scales at 350.5 pounds (159 kg), and adding 5 US gallons (19 l) of fuel doesn't make it excessively heavy, either.
