IN THE WIND P52 The all-new TE 150i gets fuel injection for 2020. Husqvarna Launches 2020 Off-Road Line H ighlighting Husqvarna's range of 2020 FE off-road bikes is the all-new TE 150i. The two- stroke off-roader is fitted with an electric starter, updated frame and WP suspension. Husqvarna says the TE 150i "features the latest two-stroke fuel injection technology, giving it all the con- venience of modern four-strokes at a fraction of the weight." Returning is the TE 250i and TE 300i fuel-injected two-strokes. The more trail-rated, or en- duro, FE (four-stroke) and TE (two-stroke) lines bridge the gap between race (TX/FX) and dual sport (Fes—street legal) model range. Available will be the 2020 FE 350 and FE 501. Unlike KTM's comparable XCF-W model line, the Husqvarna FE range features linkage rear suspension, while the KTM XCF-Ws use non- linkage PDS rear suspension. Two dual-sport models will also be available from Husqvarna—the FE 350s and the FE 501s. These are basically the same motor- cycles as the off-road-only FE models but with lights, blinkers, mirrors and a license plate. All of the FE models (dual sports included) feature new frames with increased longitu- dinal and torsional rigidity and updated carbon-fiber subframes. They get engine, suspension and bodywork updates, as well. The 2020 TE range is said to be available in July, the FE and FEs models in September. CN
