Engineered by Husqvarna for the super motard motorcycle segment, the 2011 Husqvarna SMR 449 pairs a 449.6 cc (27.4 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 98.0 x 59.6 mm (3.9 x 2.3 inches).
Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 915 mm (36 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control.
