to simply roost your buddies or want to
rely on backup power in the case of a
roosting opportunity/emergency, the FE
501 is probably the wise choice (fire-
works!). Click up a gear and twist the
throttle and the bike will catch what's in
front of it.
Likewise, if high elevation riding is
in your future, the FE 501 makes more
sense. It will have ample power at 10,000
feet where the 350 will drop off more so.
The FE 350 has easier-to-control
power and remains controllable through
tighter situations. It's the wise choice
if you want to use more of the bike's
potential in your quest for fun and going
fast on it through technical terrain argu-
ably uses less energy.
350 OR 501?
You can't go wrong with either of these
bikes but your primary riding condi-
tions should make your final decision
between the 350 and 501. Most people
that think they "need" the 501 would be
surprised at just how little you give up
on the 350, and the tradeoff in reduced
vibration with more manageable power
makes it the better choice for most rid-
ers, but if you prefer big fireworks, get
the 501 and blow some things up. CN
If power is most important to you,
the choice is simple: the 501.
