Husqvarna FE 250 2015

Husqvarna FE 250 2015

During the test, we rode the FE250 in standard condition and then also with the Rekluse automatic clutch. The automatic clutch really suits the FE250, which is easy to ride and easy on the eyes. The accessory is probably also perfectly suited to the bike's target group. All in all, the FE250 is a motorbike that can do much more than one would expect at first glance. In very hard sections, however, it is the less talented riders who would like to have a little more torque.

Very easy to ride

engine responds well over the entire rev range

light and manageable but not nervous like the 350

high-quality components.

When it comes to riding errors on steep slopes or in front of large obstacles, the 250 cannot work magic

although the 250 likes to present itself as an entry-level enduro, it is logically almost as expensive in the price list as the big enduros.

The KTM 790 Adventure is still one of the sportiest mid-range touring enduros - if you are looking for a touring machine that is brutally nimble on and off road, you will find it here. At the same time, however, the chassis and engine offer sufficient comfort and good manners to keep the rider from going mad even on longer liaison stages. The engine is wonderfully powerful for this class, fuel consumption is surprisingly low and the driving aids are even on a higher level than usual. The ergonomics are fine on the road, the off-road ergonomics could even be a little less radical. Overall, however, the 790 Adventure offers a really good price/performance ratio and great riding performance.

Rev-happy engine with impressive power

low fuel consumption

excellent traction control regulation

effective wind protection with a wide range of settings

logical controls

agile handling

precise ride

effective brakes

comfortable on-road ergonomics

well-dosed clutch.

sporty Quickshifter+ only at extra cost

chassis adjustment range not too wide

handlebar position too low off-road
