2024 Husqvarna® FE350s, Engine
The newly designed engine is tilted 2° backwards and therefore comes with a repositioned sprocket, which is 3 mm lower compared to the previous generation. The big benefit of this new design is improved anti squat behavior of the whole chassis.
Service markers on the engine (?) clearly show where to use washers, making maintenance and servicing easier than in the past.
• All major components and shaft arrangements are carefully designed and placed to best suit the performance and handling characteristics of the overall package. The 350 cc engine is not only light at 63.4 lb (28.8 kg) but also remarkably powerful.
• Light and compact engine design for optimized mass-centralization
o Weight of 2024 engine 63.4 lb (28.8 kg)
o Weight of 2023 engine 61.7 lb (28.0 kg)
? Including oil, shift lever, sprocket, and vent hose
• Outstanding, high revving performance engine with 11,500 rpm rev-limit
• Low friction design, reducing overall drag and vibrations
• Engine tilted 2° backwards with repositioned sprocket (3 mm lower)
• Improved serviceability of engine internals with added service markers
Cylinder head
The fully redesigned DOHC cylinder head features finger followers with a Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) coating, resulting in minimal friction and optimal performance. These actuate large steel valves (36.3 mm intake, 29.1 mm exhaust) which at the 11,500-rpm rev-limit open and close multiple times each second introducing fuel/air mixture to the carefully designed combustion chamber delivering efficient and optimal power throughout the rev-range.
The 29.1 mm exhaust valve is a result of the redesigned engine to deliver an optimized gas flow. Valve timings work perfectly in harmony with the redesigned and new camshaft.
For improved serviceability and maintenance works within the engine, the redesigned camshaft bearing bridge is screwed and increases stiffness.
• Fully redesigned cylinder head for improved durability and serviceability
• Finger followers with DLC coating, reducing friction and guaranteeing optimal performance
• Large steel valves (36.3 mm intake, 29.1 mm exhaust) for optimized gas flow
• New lightweight valve cover with reduced number of mounting screws (only 2)
• Redesigned camshaft and adapted valve timings
• New camshaft bearing bridge increasing stiffness and improving serviceability (screwed design)
Cylinder and piston
The 88 mm bore cylinder houses a forged bridged-box-type piston made by CP. Both the cylinder and piston are professionally engineered from high strength aluminum resulting in outstanding performance and reliability. The compression ratio is 13.7:1.
• Large 88 mm bore and diameter optimized exhaust valves for high-revving and quick response
• Forged bridged-box-type piston guaranteeing high performance and reliability
