The FE 350 is known for its versatility in all types of terrain. With a lightweight chassis and enhanced all-round performance, it possesses 450-rivalling power-to-weight ratio, while keeping the light and agile feel of a 250. Already a preferred choice for those wanting a perfect balance of weight and power, the motorcycle combines premium WP suspension, innovative electronics and comfortable ergonomics. Along with a host of other innovative refinements, the FE 350 ROCKSTAR EDITION features the same advanced technology with added colour, graphic and part updates to replicate the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory race machines.

Highlights: 
- Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing graphics
- Black powder-coated frame
- Blue CNC machined triple clamps
- Black seat cover with additional ribs
- Front disc protector
- Blue Supersprox rear sprocket
- Blue chain guide
- Grey ODI grips

ENGINE
When it comes to versatility, the DOHC 350 cc engine is second to none. By sharing much of its architecture with the 250 cc engine, the FE 350s delivers a fine balance between 450-rivaling power and lightweight 250 handling.

CYLINDER HEAD
A new casting with a lateral coolant outlet gives the cylinder head a new layout, and 200 g weight saving. Internally, the DOHC layout also features new camshafts with optimized timing and low-friction DLC coated finger followers. Lightweight titanium valves – 36.3 mm intake and 29.1 mm exhaust – a new cylinder head cover, spark plug, and spark plug connector all aid in delivering optimal performance.

CYLINDER AND PISTON
Featuring a new cooling architecture and paired with a lightweight forged bridged-box-type piston, the 88 mm bore cylinder is refined to deliver exceptional power. These updates also result in lower oscillating masses, higher revs and a very wide power band. The piston crown is also optimized to fit perfectly in the high compression combustion chamber and together with a new cylinder head gasket increases the compression ratio from 12.3:1 to 13.5:1.

CRANKSHAFT
The crankshaft has been upgraded to improve overall reliability and guarantee long service intervals of 135 hours. This has been made possible by a new bushing-type bearing at the connecting rod and two force-fitted bearing shells at the big-end bearing. Additionally, a new oil supply to the main bearing is integrated within the engine casing.

FRAME
The new chrome-moly steel frame is expertly crafted using laser-cut, robot-welded, hydro-formed tubes, ensuring the highest level of precision and quality. While retaining the advanced geometry of its predecessor, it features an increase in longitudinal and torsional rigidity, for improved rider feedback, better energy absorption and increased stability. The cylinder head mountings are made of forged aluminum, further improving handling and comfort. The premium blue powder coated frame features standard frame protectors, providing extra durability.

INTEGRATED COOLING AND RADIATORS
The radiators are expertly crafted using high strength aluminum with CFD (computational fluid dynamics) to channel air through the radiators more efficiently. The cooling system is intelligently integrated into the frame, eliminating the need for additional hoses. New for 2020, is a 4 mm larger center tube running through the frame. This reduces pressure at this point, allowing for a more consistent coolant flow. Additionally, the new radiators are mounted 12 mm lower, closer to the center of gravity for improved handling agility. A radiator fan is fitted as standard.

COMPOSITE CARBON FIBRE SUBFRAME
The carbon composite subframe is unique to Husqvarna Motorcycles and showcases pioneering technology and innovation. Using 70% polyamide and 30% carbon fiber, the new 2-piece subframe saves 250 g for a total weight of just over 2.2 lbs. Light, robust and now 50 mm longer, the new subframe delivers improved rigidity, handling and rider comfort.

EXHAUST
The exhaust system is expertly designed to deliver class-leading performance at the lowest possible weight. The header pipe is designed and manufactured in two pieces, to be as compact as possible. It also features a new joining position, which allows it to be removed without having to take out the rear shock. Further innovation allows for a shorter, more compact silencer without increasing noise levels. The component is crafted from lightweight aluminum and is stylishly finished off in a new coating that highlights its premium quality.

WP XPLOR FORK
The WP XPLOR 48 mm front fork is designed specifically for dual-sport riding. Its open cartridge layout has a spring in each leg with split damping functions. Compression damping in the left leg and rebound damping in the right. Adjustment is via easy-to-access clickers (30 clicks) on the top of each fork leg. For 2020, the standard preload adjusters allow for easier adjustment without the use of tools. The fork’s updated mid-valve piston delivers more consistent damping, while a new setting allows the fork to operate higher in the stroke for improved rider feedback and bottoming resistance.

WP XACT REAR SHOCK
Featuring a new main piston and updated base setting to match the new frame and front end, the WP XACT shock provides advanced damping characteristics to the new range. The compact and lightweight shock features a pressure balance inside, ensuring consistent damping and superior rider comfort. Using the same linkage progression found in the Husqvarna Motocross range, the rear end now sits lower, for improved control in extreme conditions. The fully adjustable component delivers 11.8 in rear wheel travel, as well as unrivalled traction, feeling and energy absorption.

MAGURA BRAKES
The Magura braking system is designed for high sensitivity, providing a modulated feel while delivering superior stopping power. GSK wave disks (260 mm disc front and 220 mm rear) complete the high-quality braking package for complete confidence.

BODYWORK
The FE 350s features new bodywork which clearly showcases Husqvarna Motorcycles’ pioneering approach to off-road motorcycle design. The ergonomics are specifically tailored to deliver greater comfort and control. As a result of extensive testing, the contact points have been slimmed down, making shifting between riding positions easier and allowing the rider to flow with movement. Thanks to the improved packaging of the wiring harness, the new seat profile reduces the seat height by 10 mm and together with the new seat cover, delivers superior comfort and control in all conditions.

TOOL-LESS AIR FILTER ACCESS
The airbox is designed with precisely positioned inlet ducts aimed at preventing air deformation and ensuring maximum airflow and filter protection. The air filter is easily accessed, without tools, by removing the left side panel. Easy maintenance is guaranteed by the Twin Air filter and filter cage design that features a simple fail proof mounting system for safe and accurate filter installation.

EMS
The FE 350s features a 42 mm Keihin throttle body optimized for throttle response. The injector is positioned to ensure the most efficient flow into the combustion chamber while the throttle cable is mounted directly without a throttle linkage. This provides an immediate throttle response and improved feel.

ELECTRIC START AND WIRING HARNESS
The FE 350s comes standard with an electric starter. The system uses a compact and lightweight Li-Ion battery which is 2.2 lbs lighter than a conventional battery. With several years of experience developing and perfecting electric starting, the proven reliability on the 2020 models is second to none, ensuring a quick and seamless start in any condition. Additionally, for 2020, an optimized wiring harness improves the packaging and concentrates all needed electrical components into a common area below the seat for easy accessibility.

TRIPLE CLAMPS
The black-anodized, CNC-machined triple clamps offer premium quality standard on all Husqvarna enduro models. They have a carefully calculated 22 mm offset and are designed to provide the perfect harmony between the new frame dynamics and updated fork settings. Expertly crafted using superior techniques and materials, they provide the highest levels of quality and reliability. They also offer 2-way handlebar adjustment as standard, allowing for customizable ergonomics.
