It seems that brands do not have vacations at any time before the barrage of premieres that we are having these months. And it is that the arrival recently of the renewed Honda CRF250R and CRF250RX of motocross now joins the Swedish brand Husqvarna, updating heading into the 2022 season its supermotard range.
Today we are talking about the Husqvarna FS 450, a motorcycle created by and for competition (whether amateur or professional) that releases Brembo components and that are added to the excellent base created in 2019. And it is that having elements as effective as its WP XACT suspensions with AER technology or its excellent 449 cubic centimeters engine capable of producing 63 CV of power, it was difficult to do better.
New hydraulic clutch system
However, Husqvarna is a company that always seeks to improve its products, even with small details as on this occasion. The most significant novelties of this model designed for the 2022 competition involves the use of some new graphics as well as the replacement of the Magura hydraulic clutch by one signed by Brembo.
For its cycle part, it continues to rely on a combined chrome-moly double-beam chassis with a carbon fiber subframe that not only gives it more resistance but also considerably lightens the weight of the set. Their suspensions come signed by WP, using a 48 mm XACT fork at the front with AER technology, while at the rear it mounts an adjustable WP XACT monoshock.
Mechanically, it uses a 449 cc SOHC single cylinder thruster capable of delivering 63 horses power. Thanks to its internal construction, with the camshaft located as close to the center of gravity as possible, it has significantly improved handling and agility when racing on the circuits.
For its transmission it relies, on the one hand, on a Pankl Racing Systems five-speed gearbox and on the other in a new hydraulic clutch signed by Brembo, guaranteeing its optimal use at all times. But Brembo will not only take care of your clutch, it will also take care of your braking thanks to the use of a radial four-piston caliper for the front 310mm disc and a single caliper with a 220mm disc at the rear.
In addition to the new hydraulic clutch, another of the novelties that this model debuts are some black Alpina wheels in a size of 16.5 inches for the front and 17 for the rear, they have been dressed with Bridgestone brand slick tires for exceptional grip.
The set is finished off with other premium elements such as the Pro Taper handlebar, a Suter slipper clutch or mechanized control plates. In addition, as optional elements we can have a progressive damping system for the handlebar (called PHDS), an FMF Powercore 4 silencer or an Akrapovič exhaust pipe, among others.
The new Husqvarna FS 450 2021 from supermotard with its new graphics is now available in all the brand's dealerships for a price that starts at 11,079 euros.
