A versatile BIG BORE PHOTOS MITCH LEES
The Flagship in the Husqvarna enduro field is the FE 501. It houses the most powerful engine in the range, but the question I want to answer is this, “is this actually the most versatile dirtbike Husqvarna makes?” Here on ADB we have always claimed the 350cc capacity is the ultimate do-it-all machine but I think we need to revisit that claim.
The reason I even think this in the first place is from my experiences coaching riders that own FE 501s. The FE 501 is the only motorcycle that has consistently popped up in every different discipline I coach from desert to enduro, hard enduro and adventure riding with riders varying in all kinds of shapes and with varying ability. You could argue this is enough evidence alone to confirm that this is the most versatile dirtbike on the market. Instead of jumping to any conclusions we got our hands on a shiny new 2022 Husqvarna FE 501
