I sold the best equivalent to the TA, my Husqvarna Terra (maybe even better than the TA) over similar concerns. The one at the dealer had a bad CDI and they couldn't get a replacement part from the factory at all, so they had to have a new bike shipped in from Italy. For my inconvenience, they offered me any or all accessories (racks, GIVI cases, tank bags, etc.) for dealer cost. I got them all and rode the bike for over a year and was impressed with it a LOT. It did everything very well and some of my very experienced riding pals in the Pine Barrens agreed. But, when Husqvarna was bought by KTM and they cancelled the Terra because it made their bikes look bad, I figured it was only a matter of time until I'd be stranded with an orphan. So I sold it for about what I paid. I guess I'm risk averse regarding bike reliability and longevity. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">Milt<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Aug 26, 2021 at 12:05 PM J.
