Husqvarna TE 300 2024
The 300 2-stroke is always a pleasure. Sure, it's exhausting to move the bike over longer stages. At the end of the day, it still requires more concentration and energy than a 4-stroke. But the 300 is heavenly light downhill and as strong as an ox uphill. With the new 2-stroke engine, it has become even better and will certainly collect some trophies in the extreme enduro sector.
Practical chassis setup for a wide range of uses
Low vibration level in the saddle
Robust overall appearance
Great ergonomics in the saddle
Lots of room to move on the bike
Unbeatable balance between handling, weight and performance
2-stroke engine with really good engine tuning
Very great running culture from the engine
Very great performance on steep slopes - good traction, surprisingly low tendency to wheelie
Plastics in the boot area quickly look very worn
Prices are normally always a matter of opinion - in this case, however, the whole range seems good but expensive
The recessed grip on the seat is too far forward
Stand has to be folded out a bit fiddly
A bit tiring to ride on longer passages
Husqvarna FE 350 2024
At the end of the day, the FE 350 is the golden mean of the 2023 model year. After several test laps, there is no room for criticism. In the saddle, you can take full advantage of all the strengths of the 2023 model year. The machine precisely follows the rider's line and the engine has sufficient reserves in every situation. On the other hand, it appears light-footed and agile. A really good Sporteduro.
