My only concern is longevity. The engine failed and required a top-end rebuild after 25 hours of gentle use. The expenses were covered by the dealer, but this is not sustainable.

Excellent review and bike! I just got the 21 TE150i in the Fall - I was only able to get maybe 5 hours on it before winter, but OMG - it's so fun! You're so right in that you have to RIDE the bike, use all the gears, etc. So different to ride compared to my 12 200 xc-w and my husband's 19 TE300i (which was fun, but you can lug it around in 2nd gear on most tight, treed single track which doesn't make a better rider, lol!). Love all your videos, very helpful!

All through my twenties I always picked the fastest bikes for enduro riding. 450's, 300 2 smokers. Had a massive off when I borrowed a friends bike and hit a tree head first. I haven't ridden in the bush for over 5 years. I miss it trail riding, but I'm over trying to be the quickest. I like the idea of these small lightweight 2 strokes and challenging myself with technical, almost trials style riding. Looks like a fun little weapon. Cheers from 🇭🇲

Great review. Congrats. I am lucky enough to have my own land to ride on and have decided to go 2 stroke again now they are so civilised (and because I am bored with 4 strokes). At first I thought just get a 250/300 but since looking into it in more detail via videos like yours, I have decided to get one of these 150's and a 250 as well but more and more I have a feeling that the 150 will be the one I take out the most and the 250 will be the one I lend to mates. I have a lot of tight technical woodland trails so outright speed is irrelevant.

Also, at the time the official stats showed the Husky as slightly lighterer and lower... the stats have now changed which is very strange. I also just like the look of the Husky. Really not much in it for me in terms of feel [I'm not pro enough to tell them apart I guess]

Having the suspension set up for your weight is key. Also bear in mind it has a very narrow stand over width so a higher bike that's narrower can allow for a lower feel than a lower wide seat.
