Engine

Arguably the best combination of power and weight, the TE 250 engine is a longstanding favourite with enduro riders. While technological advancements mean the TE 250 features a pioneering fuel injection system, it remains a low maintenance workhorse of an engine. Additionally, the TE 250 engine has an advanced construction featuring shaft arrangements precisely positioned for greater mass centralisation, a counter balancer shaft reducing vibration and a twin-valve controlled power valve for smoother power delivery.

Cylinder

The 66.4 mm bore cylinder in the TE 250 features a twin valve-controlled power valve system which delivers smooth and controlled power throughout the RPM range. Optimal exhaust port timing is achieved with the combination of an state-of-the-art, adjustable power valve drive. The cylinder also features two inlet positions at the rear of the cylinder where a pair of fuel injectors are mounted. This ensures efficient combustion resulting in reduced fuel consumption and emissions.

Exhaust

Tailored specifically for each model using an innovative 3D design process, the header pipe on the TE 250 offers an advanced geometry and performance. This allows for improved ground clearance, while a corrugated surface makes the header pipe resistant to impact out on the trail. The muffler also features an aluminium mounting bracket and advanced internal construction for excellent noise damping and weight saving.

Frame

The chromium molybdenum steel frame is expertly crafted using laser-cut, robot-welded, hydro-formed tubes, ensuring the highest level of precision and quality. The specifically crafted geometry utilises advanced longitudinal and torsional flex characteristics, for unparalleled rider feedback, energy absorption and exceptional straight-line stability. The cylinder head mountings are made of forged aluminium, improving handling and comfort. The premium grey powder coated frame features standard frame protectors, providing extra durability.

The carbon composite subframe is unique to Husqvarna Motorcycles and showcases advanced production technology and innovation. Using 70% polyamide and 30% carbon fibre, the 2-piece subframe has a total weight of just over 1 kg. With the help of computational dynamics, specific rigidity was engineered into the light and robust subframe, delivering outstanding handling and rider comfort.
