2022 Husqvarna FC350 TESTED - Motocross Action Magazine
Спорт
#motocross #dirtbike #outdoors #motorcycle
The 2022 Husqvarna FC350 was delivered to the Motocross Action Wrecking Crew, shot in the studio, and loaded out to the track for a full day of testing. Husqvarna has recently been known for its lowered suspension on their 250,350, and 450 models to the front and rear of the motorcycle. This gives a more planted feel while riding. The Husqvarna FC250 and FC450 won Motocross Action's 2021 Shootouts just several months ago. Husqvarna has made some changes for 2022 that might surprise you! We break down all the details, give you some feedback, and show you some tricks if you end up purchasing an Austrian brand motorcycle in the near future.

I love that the subtitles say "music" when it's just the motor of that 350 revving out.
Purchased the 2020 model new a while back still only on 12 hours FANTASTIC BIKE. Race it in vets here in Australia.
I really appreciate you speaking of which bolts and fasteners to keep and eye on. Great video, all the best Josh.
awesome vid legends keen as to see the fc250 one
This is a great review, thanks josh 👍🏻
Have a 2021 FX350 and it is by far the best bike I've owned over the last 40 years. Go up a tooth in the back, put 7oz weights on the clutch and now it works great on moto and in the woods. Great bikes!

Does the FE350 have that already ?? I just put some coin down for a 21 FE350 Rockstar Edition myself... In Australia we get the unplugged versions... I've only ever had MX bikes since I was 9years old Now that I'm not racing MX anymore and on the wrong side of 40 I wanted a road legal dirt bike, so I went with the FE... Waiting for this bike is killing me 😟 The 350 just seems like the best decision that I've ever made when it comes to engine size on a bike... Not too hot... Not too cold... But just right !! 😃

@@scottyd2262 The FE will be stoved up with street compliance additions, such as smog equipment. Not sure of the gearing. I also have an FE501, I'm 55, been riding since I was 9 and these bikes are great for folks like us. I can do moto (playing) on either bike, but the 501 is my street/dirt solution whereas the 350 is a fun little rocket ship that does great in woods, GP and moto. Strictly off-road.
The 350 is such an amazing platform.....they fly off dealer floors too as soon as they arrive....finding one is like finding a unicorn, better hop on it if you have the chance

You guys did a great job, one of the best reviews I've seen. I really appreciate the "what to watch out for" advice, very helpful. 👍✌️
How can you test the suspension on a smooth groomer track!?
My friend has a 21 rockstar edition and can’t make it feel the way you seem to talk about. Any tips?
Funky throttle cable routing in the back of the bars
Got the 22 250f , such a great bike , compared to my 08 sx 125

I'm in the same boat. I would kill for a CRF350...but I think Honda is about to lose me to Husky or even Gas Gas...
Easy way to take the air box cover off is to do it by front frame with no tools reach behind the frame pop off the cover not hard at all lol
I have lost a shifter off my xc250, and a kick starter off an older 250sxf :) blue loctite for sure on those things.
If you reach near bottom near the engine to removed air box cover it’s super easy lol compared to the top
Sangat keren.
Rippin that bugga
One question can it race with 450's
A little blue Loctite will fix the loose bolt problems…

Ktm always wins the 350 shootout
So basically just keep an eye on every single bolt on the bike because everything will come loose 😂 That’s pretty much how I would sum up my old 250sx, every week I was at KTM buying bolts that had fallen out over the weekend. My friends rear brake spring fell out like 2nd ride and cooked his brake pads and the brake fluid he wasn’t happy 🤦♂️
Gasgas 350 review coming ??
If a bike has a 72 rear tooth spricket, MXA will say to get a 71. As every bike tested since 1979. What's with sprocket tooth hate?
They need to fix the loose sprocket nuts problem use Stovers instead

How can they sell a bike that doesn't have the engine capacity displayed on it??
I’m really considering purchasing the 350 as my next bike I’m just a weekend warrior “vet” rider I’m only 26 but work full time so not as much time on bike as some people. My biggest worry is wil I like the air forks because I’ve been riding Yamahas for a long time I’m currently on a 2020 yz250f. If anyone has any input for me I’d greatly appreciate it

I'm on a 21 350sxf, from a 17. But I also owned a 19 yz250f at the same time as the 17. The 21+ wp forks are amazing, the kybs are a hair plusher at the bottom of the stroke but that's about it, and there is far more to a bike than forks. That Yamaha was so rigid heavy and wide, sluggish heavy steering and pushed through the turns, also had terrible ergonomics. Side by side there is no comparison, Yamahas look and ride like Lego blocks, they look alot cheaper. My comparison is a ktm/husq is a Ferrari and a Yamahas a Corvette. Both fast as duck but the Ferrari is a far more premium, beautiful, and a better handling machine. And you'll pay for that

@@Runk3lsmcdougal yea I agree there is far more to a bike than forks I’ve just always enjoyed how plush Yamahas are. One thing I will say is I would like to have a bike that corners better. I’ve had my yz suspension fully done by race tech and it is for sure great but my problem is I don’t have anything else to compare it to besides my 2014 yz250f. I haven’t rode a ktm or husky or any of the newer model bikes ever. I wish there was a way to get to ride a few different bikes back to back before buying lol

Buy the 350 you WILL NOT regret it. I'm 37. Best bike I've ridden. Handles on rails (keep an eye on fork pressure). My dad has a 2019 yz250f... rode my 2022 350... went and bought the 350. Gears are stretched way further than on the Yamaha. Suspension is almost as good. Much more usable power.
My man does not believe in putting his foot down much on a berm lol
Have you guy's never heard of lock tight
As a Kawasaki-lover because of the green being my favorite color, Husqvarna can be my second favorite in terms of coloring and fun.
Why would you buy a 350 instead of a 450 when they are close to the same price and power?

Test ride one and you will surely find out - it is a blast to ride! Imagine for a second, a lighter 450 with power all the way through the rev range, and much more over-rev (which is the most fun part of it all). The engine inertia gives the bike a playful and flickable character, but still can put the horsies down to the ground. Look at Kaleb Russell in GNCC beating everyone on the 350 XC-F...it's a beast of a bike! Downside is stock suspension though...haha - I'm spring fork kind of man.

I have/race a 2022 KTM 450 SX-F and just rode a FC350 last night (indoors in WI) and taking home a new 2022 FC 350 tomorrow. So much smooth power and was like riding a 250 on Steroids!!
I'll stick to Japanese bikes, at least it won't vibrate loose and lose half its self on the track.
You think, you said what? Not ever! Why is it, bypassed! By gaysz, right now?
Note: keep your eye on the bike since its falling apart..
I would have watched this but could only stand the obnoxiously loud 'music' for less than 3 minutes.
Any rev, would be caustic, by ignition and, exhaust! HUSQ-- Swedish AYE! Q= quick times! US= salt water! Man, that's military- in Sweden. And software-- illegally, uses it-- videos!
That's not what, American Indians- said! They order, through Factory Connection! So you, is, my prior sentence? Now think, of Judge!
