First Look: 2023 Husqvarna Enduro range – minor updates for the white bikes

Husqvarna Motorcycles has presented their 2023 enduro range, a seven-bike line-up – three TE (two-stroke) and four FE (four-stroke) models – developed from the race bikes that catapulted Billy Bolt to become the Hard Enduro and SuperEnduro World champion.

“Riders of every level will find a machine in a line-up unequalled in its sector for technical advancement, and race-winning reliability and durability”, that’s how Husqvarna Motorcycles introduced their 2023 enduro range.

As happened with KTM and GASGAS, we’ll have to wait one more year to see any substantial changes on the Husqvarna enduro bikes. The 2023 enduro range from Husqvarna maintains a seven-bike line-up – TE 150, TE 250 and TE 300 two-stroke models, along with the FE 250, FE 350, FE 450 and FE 501 four-stroke bikes – with no major updates in the chassis or engine. Just new “dark blue with electric yellow” graphics.

A very minor change, although not to the bikes, is that Husqvarna Motorcycles have ditched the ‘i’ in the model name for the two-stroke bikes which is probably down to them being fuel injected for many years.

In the suspension department, Husqvarna retains the WP XPLOR 48mm fork with split damping function and easy access preload adjusters. At the rear, the linkage remains with a WP XACT shock offering 300mm oftravel which will “absorb every surface change” Husqvarna says. The TE and FE models continue to use Braktec hydraulic braking and clutch systems.
