Kayaba 48 mm fork

The Brembo braking system has large diameter braking discs (front 260 mm), controlled by compact twin piston floating calipers (front), and single piston in the rear

The best of all worlds

The engine is directly derived from the engine developed for the TE250 ¨C the lightest in its category at just 22 kg! But its compactness now has greater torque and power with an increase in cylinder capacity to 302.4 cc (bore and stroke 82 x 57.35 mm), and a new specially developed exhaust system, to further improve performance. The basic design is unchanged: single cylinder dstti , twin cam, with 4 titanium valves, Mikuni electronic injection with 45 mm throttle body and double CDI mapping, selectable by a switch on the handlebars. A practical system for changing engine performance to match the terrain and running conditions, selecting between "hard" for top performance, and a "soft" setting for less aggressive power delivery. Reliability is ensured by the high specification cooling system, with a thermostat and electric fan to prevent overheating in the tougher and slower trials.

Husqvarna TE449: Evolution of the Species


The experience gained over the last year has made the new TE449 an even more competitive bike. The basic profile is unchanged, the 449 is still the bike that inspires love at first sight, with all the innovative technical features that put it amongst the market leaders in the sector. It was already exclusive, now it has become more streamlined and efficient. Aesthetically it is more pleasing, the chassis is now black, the rims anodised silver, new graphics emphasise the flow of the lines that express functionality, lightweight and style. The ergonomic side panels allow the rider more freedom of movement, the integrated in-mould graphics are guaranteed to last. The days of "adhesive" graphics that come off with the second power wash are gone.

But races are won by the stopwatch, not on the catwalk, and the changes in handling and mechanics make the new TE449 a more reliable bike, tough and competitive enough to win and keep winning!

Stronger frame, lower profile

The new version uses more 25CrMo4 chrome-moly steel to reinforce the steering head, the seat rail and engine mounts. The rear section ¨C now a single piece rear fender ¨C is stronger and more streamlined and the entire electrical system has been simplified and lightened. The styling and layout have been completely redesigned; it has better balance, with new suspension settings and the Kayaba rear shock is shorter by 4 mm, further reducing seat height.a leading company in the thequicksilverscreen printing industry,

The top of the range rear suspension uses Kayaba components (adjustable for rebound and compression) and an upside down linkage, combining the advantages of progressive linkage with a sheltered location. The front suspension (48 mm diameter forks) has been improved with more progressive damping. The rear shock is better shielded for additional protection. These modifications are the result of the collaboration between the Husqvarna R&D team and the official racing team, further streamlining the frame, designed to concentrate weight on the bike's centre-of-gravity and minimize chain-torque. The steel tubing perimeter frame was designed for the CTS - Coaxial Traction System ¨C which on the TE449 reduces to a minimum the influence of the final transmission on dynamic handling and steering. With the gearbox output shaft coaxially aligned with the swingarm pivot, the torque generated by the powerful 450cc engine now has almost no influence on the handling, and above all allows the engine to be placed as far to the rear as possible. This optimises the wheelbase and enables the forward slant of the cylinder head, which lowers the centre of gravity and allows straighter inlet tracts for the engine.

The braking system is the trusted Brembo. The front braking disc has a diameter of no less than 260 mm, with a twin piston floating caliper, while the 240 mm rear disc has a light and compact single piston floating caliper.

More linear power delivery

The single cylinder, four valve, twin cam titanium valve engine is a recent design and needed few modifications, just some minor changes to the power curve. To better access and exploit all the power of the TE449, the designers concentrated on the mapping of the Keihin injection,Buy from Reliable acrylic honeycombpanels Wholesalers. which controls the action of the twin flap 46mm throttle body. Fine tuning included the balancing of the engine thermodynamics with the light steel Akrapovic exhaust, developed in collaboration with the prestigious Slovenian manufacturer. The efficiency of the cooling circuit was improved with change to the radiator, introducing a new WP component.

Unchanged are the six gears and clutch with soft and progressive hydraulic action. Weight is saved by eliminating a kick starter, which has proved to be superfluous, given the efficient and reliable electric ignition with high-power battery.

Husqvarna TE511: The Engine That Pulls No Punches


The TE511 is no toy and horsepower is one thing the TE511 does not lack,loseweightfastonsale in fact the problem is keeping the horses in check! This is why all design aspects of the machine have been studied and evaluated with one thing in mind, making the TE511 easier to ride. Like its almost twin stable mate, the TE449,offers various oilpaintingsupplie such as pet food, the high power bike has also seen mechanical and engine changes. These are aimed at making the big brother of the Husqvarna 2012 range easier to ride and more appealing to different types of rider.

Aesthetically it has the same updates, black frame, anodised silver Excel rims and the new integrated in-mould graphics - no more adhesives that peel off under the power wash. The tail section has been redesigned as a single-piece, sleeker and more robust, but the most important new features are the engine settings and the layout.


The two-stroke 250 cc school of thought

Two-stroke engines typically have a less linear power delivery than big four stroke single cylinder engines, but they offer 2-stroke fans a riding experience that can not be found elsewhere. After many years of continuous development, Husqvarna technicians have transformed aggressiveness into effectiveness. This is thanks to fine tuning of the thermodynamics, the cylinder, exhaust expansion chamber, and the adoption as standard issue of the parts specially tested by the CH racing team. The Mikuni TMX38 carburettor, V-Force reed valve,A poloshirts is an abrasive grain bonded to a flexible substrate using adhesives. Ducati Energy digital ignition calibration of the exhaust valve and the crank shaft with the right compromise between inertia and reactivity.

The evolution of the WR250 engine aims to be perfectly balanced between easy control and explosive performance, essential in the more extreme enduro trials, where only five gears are needed to tackle every terrain. The advantage of the two-stroke's lightness and manoeuvrability.

WR300: the winning alternative!


One thing is sure: the Husqvarna CH Racing Team riders like to go against the grain. The WR300 is the bike of choice for Sebastien Guillaume. A choice that might seem daring, but the French champion ¨C surrounded by big, powerful 500 cc four-stroke machines - has for years taken his place on the podium of the E3 class at the International Six Days Enduro Championship.

Guillaume likes his enduro tough, for real men, and that means the Husqvarna WR300, designed specifically on the basis of his experience at the WEC. No longer is the Husqvarna "300" a kitted up version of the WR250 but a fully developed production bike in its own right. In 2008, when the WR300 model launched it was immediately taken to heart by professionals and fans alike.

Mechanical design in common with the 250

The WR300 and WR250 share the same mechanical design: same steel tubing chassis, same swing arm and linkage, same suspension. The 48mm Kayaba forks are adjustable for both compression and rebound damping, the rear shock is a Sachs. The 2012 version benefits from the same updates common to the range: chassis painted black, anodised silver Excel rims and redesigned graphics. A new look for a bike that remains essentially the same and technically unchanged, which says a lot about how much work has already gone into fine tuning, testing and finishing in the past. The WR300 and WR250 also share a common layout and all component parts: Brembo brakes - large diameter (260 mm) front daisy wheel braking with twin piston floating caliper - while the rear disc (220 mm) is floating and solid, as preferred by Guillaume and other riders, to ensure maximum control on muddy terrain.

Maximum two-stroke power

The new WR300 is the largest engine capacity 2-stroke in the Husqvarna range, yet it has a surprisingly linear and progressive power delivery. The engine is powerful, always ready and responsive to minimum throttle changes, but not so explosive as to be demanding to the point that only a pro can handle it. In fact it immediately became an alternative - light, manageable, and more economic - for E3 class pro bikers and fans of extreme enduro. The engine is closely based on the crankcase of the WR250, but uses a larger bore cylinder (72 mm, giving an engine capacity of 293.1 cc). All component parts are top of the range: Ducati Energy digital ignition, Mikuni TMX38 carburettor and V-Force reed valve are just the more obvious examples. The five speed gearbox performs well across the engine power range.
