The newest track-ready Husqvarna FS450 guarantees loads of thrills

Following on from the large reveal of its newest batch of its MX and Enduro machines, Husqvarna’s received us sizzling below the collar with the discharge of its new FS450 supermoto machine.

It’s not road-legal, however in the event you’re out there for a brand new observe weapon that’ll be heaps of enjoyable, then it may very well be effectively price a glance. 

Sadly, Husky hasn’t launched figures for energy and torque, however contemplating it’s powered by a 449.9cc four-stroke single cylinder engine and suggestions the scales at simply 107.6kg (with out gas), anticipate it to be a punchy little quantity that will get pulses racing in a critically enjoyable method.

It will get a 7.2-litre gas tank; 16.5-inch entrance and 17-inch rear spoked Alpina wheels which come shod with some sorted Metzeler Racetec SM K1 tyres; whereas stopping is sorted by a set of Brembo brakes (with a four-piston radially-mounted caliper and 310mm disc up entrance, and a single piston caliper and 220mm disc on the rear).

Suspension is sorted by WP 48mm XACT forks; an XACT monoshock with 266mm of journey (and loads of adjustment); and there’s a very good suite of electronics to play with, too, together with a spread of throttle maps, launch management, traction management, and a quickshifter. Oh – and Husky reckons its new one-piece seat will present additional grip, making it much less probably so that you can slip again as you’re giving it the beans.

We wager it’s a hoot to journey, and though £11,249 is a number of money to splash on this form of bike, there’s little doubt it’s a critically succesful little bit of package.
