Is bigger always better?
Depends. Husqvarna's FE 350
and 501 make that question

DO 150-PLUS CC'S REALLY
MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
F
or 2020, Husqvarna's FE line of four-stroke,
single-track-slaying woods machines are no
longer just street-legal beasts. In line with
KTM's enduro offering, there are now trail bikes in
the lineup without license plates.
In our KTM XCF-W vs EXC comparison a few
weeks ago, we showed that the concept of com-
promise between bikes with license plates and
those without is weak. And if you don't need or
want a license plate on your dirt bike, you should
save the cash and get the one without. That's
simple enough, right?
Here, we're skipping that debate (thankfully)
and going straight to the hottest question on deck:
