Picked up my dream bike, a Husqvarna FE450. This was my first ride and initial impressions. All I can say is it’s an amazing bike and we’ll worth the money.
I’ve been thinking of which enduro bike to buy. Looked at second hand and new. WRF or KTM family. I’m a big guy too, 115kg. You’ve just convinced me. I’m getting one of these. Thank you.
Ok, just had short first ride. WOW is all I can say at this point. I will try to follow up after more time with it, but so far I can echo everything you said. What an awesome bike!
Hey bro, i just got a 2019 fe501. If you're ever in fallon and wanna ride hit me up. I bought it to replace my 14 FC450. Is yours street legal? Planning on getting bags on it and going moto camping.
Fellow 260 pounder here Love to hear bigger guys riding and having fun. And they keep saying 450's are overkill? A 250 ain't moving me like a 450. My son's 250 moves him just fine.
I’ve got a deposit in on a ‘24 WR450F waiting on it to come in, but I noticed that a dealer a few hours away has sales going on this month on Husqvarna and I could get a ‘24 FE450 for the same price OTD as the Yamaha. Now I’m torn! Did you ever test ride a new WR for comparison with this?
No, I came off an 04 WR so I new it would be good with the new updates but you can’t deny getting a KTM or husky for the same price is a no brainer. It’s such a better bike than the WR. The only thing I like more about the Yamahas are that it has the app to adjust mapping instead of buying a new ECU. Other than that, KTM/husky every day of the week.

Just picked one up. I haven’t even ridden it yet … Can’t wait to get some miles on it.

How many miles do you usually get out of a tank?

@@Channel-io1di Nice! No it’s not street legal with no plans in the near future to do so. Lots of great dual sport riding areas out here though!
@battlebornmotorsports8491 yea I looked at your other videos. Looks like you know some good trails. Hit me up if you ever go to sand mountain.

great vid but you should look into getting a better mic
Congrats on your new ride! I have the same FE, picked it up last fall. It's a great bike, even here in New England. Ride on
