Let’s forget for a moment about the Husqvarna Nuda 900R and get back to its offroad roots, checking out the Husqvarna dirt bike range for 2012.
These Husqvarna cross bikes follow the enduro range with a few updates, but nothing revolutionary for the new year.
The range kicks off with a few changes to the Husqvarna CR125, with a new molybdenum chrome chassis, which has been strengthened around the steering zone to optimise the Kayaba fork.
The CR125 also gets new graphics and uses InMould paint technology to better protect the design from wear and tear.
The CR125 single-cylinder, two-stroke engine gets some updates with a Mikuni TMX38 carburettor, V-Force pack and the four-stroke TC250 clutch.
The exhaust and silencer are lightweight components and the six-speed transmission gets improved protection from the air filter.
Moving from the high-performance two-stroke, we come to the Husqvarna TC250 which borrows some MX2 championship experience.
The production model TC250 gets the same chassis updates previously mentioned, but uses a tubular steel frame, new steering components and once again new graphics.
The Husqvarna four-stroke engine is a recently developed project, and is still the lightest and most compact in its class.
The whole camshaft setup has been redesigned and now we get four valves in titantium and new pistons which contribute to a ten-percent increase in power and torque.
The TC250 also gets new Keihin injection technology with 46-mm throttle valve and Kokusan electronic ignition.
The range-topping Husqvarna TC449 continues its development and keeps its under-seat tank and high airbox for better balance, but improved cooling system.
New pins on the fronk fork have been designed to reduce the chain pull effect, and the steering and chassis is now more rigid with Kayaba suspension.
The rear shock has been updated to improve its smoothness and a new progressive spring and protection adds to better control.
The 449 gets electronic ignition, new WP radiators to improve the cooling circuit around the motor, and a larger air intake has been included.
The fuel distribution system has been tweaked to improve performance and the piston rods have been treated with DLC high-resistance finish.
Bringing up the final changes to the 2012 Husqvarna offroad model range is the Husqvarna CR65 for teenagers starting their motocross experience.
It has a water-cooled 65cc engine with two radiators, and a Mikuni 24 mm carburettor is included.
A six-speed hydraulic clutch is fitted and overall the small bike weighs just 55 kg (dry).
