Husqvarna TE 310 2009

Husqvarna has widened the Enduro range with the new TE 310. This machine has been created to meet the demands of a particular section of the market that wants a motorcycle that is mid way between a 250 and a 450 cc 4-stroke. As for the frame, the Husqvarna TE 310 has a completely renewed frame that is 1 Kg lighter than the 2008 models, is more rigid and offers the rider better feel and manageability.
The new Wave type brake discs have been specially designed to improve performance under extreme conditions and the engines also feature new plastic engine protectors on both sides.
The TE 310 has a new higher performance exhaust system and forged aluminium side stand. The suspension settings too have been modified to improve rider comfort. As for appearances, the new graphics have an immediate impact and serve to underline the aggressive character of the 2009 range with the overall look further enhanced by black anodised wheels.
The TE 310 also has a new more compact digital display that, though smaller, is perfectly readable and blends beautifully with the new headlamp unit that houses it.
As regards the engine, the TE 310 comes from the TE 250 but the bore has been increased to 83mm. (76 mm on the 250). Other changes have also been made: steel gear change linkage, steel fork drive shaft and new gear selector to ensure more accurate gear changes. Husqvarna chose to fit steel exhaust valves to ensure greater durability over time. The 2009 models now also have an oil circuit pressure relief valve to ensure improved performance including when starting from cold, a new more efficient oil filter and a new timing chain tensioner for improved reliability.

Husqvarna WR 125 2009

Husqvarna still believes in two stroke engines especially for the 125 class and this engine size remains the entry point for many young riders wishing to join the world of Enduro. The little two-stroke 125 now has a completely new frame whose geometry stems from the four-stroke models. This new unit is more comfortable, lighter and more reliable. The layout and appearance have been totally redesigned with 80% of the components being new. Great care was taken during component design so as to improve both ease of fitting and the machine's appearance. New components include tank and filler cap, seat, side panels, front mudguard, radiator guard, air filter box and frame protectors. The newly designed frame is made from oval and box section steel tubing that provides a stronger and lighter structure. The new frame also means that there are changes to the geometry, wheelbase, steering angle and weight distribution. The footpegs have been moved forward by 15 mm and the seat height has decreased of 10 mm. The seat is more comfortable and its new shape provides a better riding position and makes it easier for the rider to change position. The filter box too has a completely new, more compact design. The rear suspension has a new Soft Damp system with a new leverage ratio and progression curve. This means less load on the frame and chain tension effect is optimised as is traction. The new tubular aluminium swing arm features an asymmetric geometry extruded box aluminium centre housing an off-set shock absorber. New black anodised Excel wheels add to the overall aggressive look.
The 2009 WR 125 now has a five-port cylinder from the CR motocross models and a new 38 mm TMX Mikuni carburettor. The exhaust system and silencer are completely new.
