Husqvarna FE 501 2024
Overpowered? Yes, of course! But in the saddle, this also has its advantages. In many situations, you can save yourself over difficult obstacles even with the wrong gear. The 501 can cope with the lowest revs and chugs ponderously along the track when tired. Sporty pilots will probably avoid the FE 501. They will achieve better lap times with the 350 or the 2-strokes. However, the 501 is a good choice for experienced pilots who also like to ride long passages without racing stress.

Stand has to be folded out a bit fiddly
In downhill sections, the motor pushes noticeably harder than the lighter models
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.
