New 2022 Husqvarna FX 450 Dirt Bike Motorcycle

2022 Husqvarna® FX 450, 2022 Husqvarna® FX 450

The pinnacle of Husqvarna offroad competition, the FX 450 uses advanced engineering techniques to not only draw massive power figures from the 450cc engine, but also position the engine closer to the center of gravity to vastly improve handling and maneuverability. The addition of launch control means perfect acceleration off the line, while class-leading ergonomics and traction control keep the rider in full control.

Features may include:

• POWERFUL ENGINE

The SOHC engine is the perfect example of the advanced engineering techniques used by Husqvarna motorcycles offering class-leading HP at an overall weight of just 61.3 pounds. Mass-centralization is key in the engine design, enabling chassis engineers to position the engine closer to the center of gravity for optimal handling and maneuverability.

• CRANKSHAFT

The crankshaft is specifically positioned to harness the rotating mass in the ideal centre of gravity resulting in a lightweight and agile handling feel. As such, the inertia produced by the crankshaft is carefully calculated to deliver optimal traction and rideability from the powerful 450cc plant. A plain big end bearing comprising of two force-fitted bearing shells ensure maximum reliability and durability, guaranteeing long service intervals of 100 hours.

• FUNCTIONAL BODYWORK

Clean, Swedish-inspired design and ergonomics are tailored to deliver exceptional comfort and control, enabling riders to perform at the highest level for extended periods of time. As a result of extensive testing, the slim contact points make shifting between riding positions easier and allow the rider to flow with movement. The flat seat profile, together with the seat cover texture, deliver superior comfort and control in all conditions.

• MAP SWITCH

Designed for easy, one-finger operation, the map switch is standard on the FX 450 and serves multiple functions. It allows the riders to easily select between 2 engine maps, activate the launch control or toggle the traction control feature.
