2024 HUSQVARNA FE 501s, 2024 HUSQVARNA FE 501s

DESCRIPTION:

Enhanced with the latest technical innovations and producing more power than the previous generation, the FE 501s continues to be the most powerful machine in Husqvarna Motorcycles' dual-sport line-up. A new engine for 2024 produces a broader spread of controllable power and by positioning the engine shaft arrangements at the ideal center of gravity, maneuverability is vastly improved. Aiding this agile feel is the new chassis, which has been developed and manufactured using advanced engineering techniques. Together with new WP Suspension, enhanced comfort is assured. Expertly assembled with high-quality components throughout, the FE 501s is finished with new functional bodywork adorned with white, yellow, and blue graphics inspired by the Swedish heritage of the brand.

FEATURES:

INNOVATIVE ADVANTAGE

• WP XPLOR FRONT FORKS: Each of Husqvarna Motorcycles' enduro machines are now equipped with WP XACT Closed Cartridge spring forks. Designed and developed for the rigors of enduro riding, the forks offer consistent performance thanks to the closed cartridge spring design, which optimizes oil flow and prevents it from foaming. The addition of a new hydrostop, effective in the last 68 mm of travel, is highly effective on heavy landings to maintain maximum forward momentum. Additionally, riders can alter the compression and rebound settings quickly and easily using the tool free adjusters found at the top and bottom of each fork leg.
• WP XACT REAR SHOCK: The all-new WP XACT rear shock is 100 g lighter and 15 mm shorter than its predecessor, yet the travel remains unchanged at 300 mm. With rebound and both high and low speed compression adjustable by hand, setting changes can be achieved quickly and easily without tools. Complete with a CFD optimized shock piston, low friction SKF seals, and a revised linkage system, consistent damping, comfort, and traction is guaranteed.
• HYDRAULIC BRAKES: The highest level of performance is guaranteed with the latest BRAKTEC braking systems which are specifically designed for enduro riding. New calipers, new brake pads, new levers, and new brake lines together with the GSK wave discs (260 mm disc front and 220 mm rear) result in a sensitive and progressive feel ensuring enhanced control in all conditions.
• HYDRAULIC CLUTCH: The high-quality BRAKTEC clutch system guarantees even wear, reliability, and near maintenance-free operation. In addition, the lever design is updated providing a comfortable feeling in every condition. Play is constantly compensated so that the pressure point and function of the clutch remain identical in cold or hot conditions, as well as over time.
