Husqvarna FE 450 2015

Still the golden mean. Much easier to ride than a 350. Not quite as nervous, but just a tad more ponderous. It has no end of power and torque. The 501 is frankly superfluous. This bike is not too weak for anyone. Probably not the coolest choice, 450 was "mainstream" for years, but in the course of a hard enduro week the best partner you could wish for. The few extra kilos are quickly forgotten on the leisurely connecting stages. During the test we also rode it with a Rekluse automatic clutch. This worked great and saved power.

The Yamaha WR 450 F is a great all-in-one package. Its single-cylinder engine provides powerful propulsion while remaining easy to control. Thanks to the high torque, the power unit pulls the rider up even the steepest hills. In terms of chassis, our testers could only rave about the great responsiveness and easy handling. Only the brakes of the Yamaha WR 450 F could be a little sharper for one of our testers. A great all-rounder for ambitious enduro riders.
