We got to take the FC250, FC350 and FC 450 away with us for extended testing, but the two-strokes were unfinished prototypes and we had only limited time on them. The Husqvarna line will only have a TC250 and […]

They knew that the YZ would probably return unchanged, and they knew it wouldn’t take that much to close the gap. All […]
The Honda CRF250R, Husqvarna FC250, Kawasaki KX250, KTM 250SX-F, Suzuki RM-Z250 and Yamaha YZ250F meet in the 2019 Dirt Bike 250 MX shootout. We have been looking forward to this for some time, but the new Suzuki RM-Z250 was late and so was the moderately revised Honda CRF250R. The Yamaha YZ250F was the most heavily […]
RIDING THE 2019 HUSQVARNA FC250 Our 2019 250 MX shootout has been on the back-burner for some time now. Two bikes are still to come, and both are very important.
