Review

The 2012 Husqvarna SMR 630 represents the tail end of Husqvarna's supermoto era before their acquisition by KTM. This model continued the legacy of the SMR line, offering a raw and unfiltered supermoto experience. It directly competed with bikes like the KTM 690 SMC and Aprilia SXV 550, aiming for riders who prioritized agility and responsiveness over long-distance comfort.

At the heart of the SMR 630 lies a potent 600.0 ccm (36.61 cubic inches) single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. This powerplant provides ample torque for aggressive acceleration and wheelies. While not the lightest supermoto available, its dry weight of 151.0 kg (332.9 pounds) contributes to a planted feel on the road. The fuel capacity is 12.00 litres (3.17 US gallons), which is adequate for spirited rides but may require frequent refueling during longer trips.

The riding experience on the SMR 630 is characterized by its aggressive ergonomics. The seat height of 910 mm (35.8 inches) places the rider in a commanding position, providing excellent visibility and control. Its supermoto design features a flat seat that is better suited for track-focused riding than long-distance touring. Suspension is firm and responsive, allowing for precise handling and confident cornering. The upright stance and wide handlebars give the rider leverage for quick direction changes and navigating tight spaces.

The 2012 Husqvarna SMR 630 is designed for experienced riders who crave a visceral and engaging supermoto experience. It's a bike that rewards skillful riding and excels on twisty backroads and supermoto tracks. While its limited fuel range and tall seat height may not appeal to everyone, its raw power and agile handling make it a thrilling choice for those seeking a pure and unfiltered riding experience. Its focus is on providing a fun, engaging experience rather than practicality.
