Husqvarna TE250i and TE150i Enduro review from KNOX

Excuse my ignorance can someone care to explain how a 2T can be Euro 5 compliant?

Nice overview, really liked it! Can you make compair for FE350 vs TE250i?

Very nice bike

Great cinematics, guys! Trails like these always look a lot more tame than they actually are so credit where it is due!

welcome to the world of dirt!

And it sounds like....?

These aren't street bikes, this stuff about riding it on the street is bizaare. Put it in a van, go to the trail, and ride it there.

This guy said crikey lol

I am looking at getting a te150 or te250 but i am not sure if they are A2 compatible, does anybody know? i cant find anything anywhere.

What are the top speeds

Rider weight and altitude make a big difference when looking at these two bikes.

Finally, a video where someone reviews the bikes well that is not a professional rider or a doofus head. Just a regular, slightly above average rider talking about what he thinks about the bikes. Nice video.

Thx. Can U compare husqv TE 250i vs ktm 250 exc tpi ?

great vid of bike review but you get a thumbs down for the shttyass intro "music"

Hi mate great video im just getting enduro could i ask where the trails are where u go please,cheers lee

Great review and beautiful bikes.
Can we register the TE for streets here in United States ? Thank you anyone for chiming I’m. J

Great review - Great riding footage - Great video! Thank you!

im five foot 7. could i handle this bike

I’ve got a 250 exc 2018 tpi ktm. I’m thinking about getting the 150 husky to bring me back to earth as I’ve had a couple of nasty falls. Then build back up to a 250 2t. Do you recommend?

Great review Aaron.
A couple of points for prospective customer/owners to consider though, these are essentially competition machines with engine tolerances that reflect this, my dealer asks how the machine will be used and does fit indicators, working horn etc before delivery, however the security issue remains as you point out. A more practical bike for green lane type forays and more road friendly in general might be the Honda CRF 250 RL?, not a overly powerful bike, but would require less stringent servicing and be more comfortable.

Good review. But you lost me when started talking about "road-ability". Lights, blinkers, and "where's the keys?". Haha. These are not dual sports. That's what the FE and EXC-f bikes are for. That's not to say some people don't plate them by adding these things aftermarket - but that's not what they're intended for nor marketed for. Manufacturers want to keep cost and weight down as much as possible.

Do they come with the head lights?

The oil is actually injected separately from the gas

Are you for real ! All you got to worry about is parking and key, as for indicators and mirrors eeekkkkk you don"t do alot of green laning do ya pal

In Australia they have mirrors horn and blinkers

I hope ktm/husky do not listen to your review and go ruin a trail bike by adding road legal kits. If you want that on your own bike then customize it yourself. Or, buy one of their models that are designed for that purpose, because in case you didn’t know, they do make models with keys, mirrors, and blinkers! Leave these alone.!!!

Rode my buddies 2021 te150i. Thing is like a mountain bike on the trails, so nimble and light while ripping at the same time when you want to. The power band is perfect.

I know how to make a security it’s called take the spark plug out 😎

These aren’t road bikes at all they are straight up race bikes I live in Canada and they aren’t road legal

I am having such a hard time choosing between these two bikes. I have been racing 250XCs lately, came from a 300XCW before that. I had a 2018 TE150 for a while and it was used as a backup bike for trail riding with buddies and it was such a blast. For some reason I never thought of it as a race bike but the more I learn these 150s would be epic race bikes and would help conserve energy. The lack of bottom end will suck in the mud races though.

One of each, please.

Dude, these aren't made for the road. You can't really knock points off a review for poor performance in something they aren't designed for.

I’m a total newbie. Doing my bike licence. I’m intending to get the TE150. I’m looking at buying a van so I can drive to the trails in Wales etc (4 hours drive!j). Appreciate I’ll have to drive on road between trails to fill a day but hoping it’s not mega road miles at a time, say 5-8 miles max between trails in an area? I note the video remarked about 150 being shit on road but then I’m intending to limit my on road time as much as poss. Would look into hare and hounds racing after a bit of practicing! Im not fussed on lack of security aspects as I’ll be using this for trails, experience days etc. well that’s the plan. The comments about it being dire on road are a concern as I will surely have to do a few miles between trails in U.K., although i don’t want to ride it on road for choice, for fun etc or commuting, purely to get between lanes on days out trail riding.

I have a 2023 and I love it!!!
Best bike ever.

spot on , i think you may have to have some proof of decent locks e.t.c. fot ins to pay out ;;

Great review for a normal person’s perspective. Hoping to get myself a TE300i Heritage. Will have to kit myself out in your gear too.

I live in Africa and love the 150. We dont have bike thieves here like your 1st world UK

Great review. 1 year in with my TE150 and still love it!

Hope you enjoyed our review of the Husqvarna TE250i and TE150i. They are truly brilliant enduro bikes! People buy these bikes for a wide range of applications, competition, hare and hound, trail riding, hard enduro... We used them in purely a trail riding setting and therefore our comments about on road practicality and security were based on trail riding in the UK and the practical issues that throws up and not based on the other aforementioned settings. Many thanks, Aaron KNOX.
