good review. appreciate the honesty. probably great bike for old guy like me who still thinks he’s fast (58). the light weight is a big plus for me. never thought i’d see the day that i can’t throw these big 4 strokes around but alas, that day is here. for you younguns out there... enjoy every ride, because life passes you by faster than a mile of scenic singletrack. ❤️🇺🇸
Yep. When you aren't fighting with a big bike in gnarly terrain, you have a great time.
scott peitavino I bought mine at 61. it doesn't wear me out at all. Ride on.
True fucking story...56..and brain injury
I'm looking for light Enduro...but need to drive on highway to get to my trails...
Just criuzing ..im thinking 250 rally..
Or 300...I would want supper motto
If it is light weight
Amen..i'm 47..bought xr6 ti 0l in feb 21'..Sold it april 01 21' and bougt a 21' husky TE300i..Light, fast, TONS OF FUN..And doesnt tire me out like the 650l did.
@@danhughes3626 Buy a Husky 2 stroke ..LIGHT, FAST & FUN!!
I'm 5'4" and around 130lbs with gear on. Suspension is slightly stiff for my weight stock, but I love how this bike handles and feels a lot better than the 16 250xcf I used to ride. The 150 lugs way better than I ever expected it would. It bogs down just enough that it makes it very easy to keep traction at the rear when climbing slippery roots and rocks. Only time I have noticed the need to slip the clutch more so than normal is in really sandy spots taking off from a stop. I have a 21' TE 150 , but its pretty much identical to the 20'
I was actually looking at the XCW version at first, but the husky linkage rear end makes the bike feel just a tiny bit closer to the ground. Something to keep in mind for shorter riders. I have a 30" inseam and do not feel like I need to lower the bike.
I just went from a 2015 FE501 to a 19 TE 150 carved. Loads of fun I’m riding 50+ miles a day and not exhausted by the end of day.
That is a great benefit of a bike like this. Doesn't wear you out and even makes you want to ride longer!
How often do you fill the oil up?
I understand that if you are a heavy hard user of the bikes they offer an ECU flash that feeds the bike more oil. Any one know if this is true? I asked at my dealer when I bought the bike 3 weeks ago but he had no idea what I was talking about.
@@JimWearsTimbs My oil tank lasts me about 6-7 Tankfuls
@@alistairbalistair9596 I went with the Coober ECU..Much better performance and oiling!!
Thank you for the excellent and detailed review
Its a great fun bike. I've had one for a few months. It runs great! It lugs low and does not stall. It revs and rips. Turns and brakes quickly, no overheating. Forks are great in rocks.
Yeah, pretty much agree with all of that. Glad you like your new bike!
is it street legal
do u think it's faster than a CRF-150R ?
@@beverywhereyouare te150i is monstrously faster, the 150r is a teenagers bike making 24hp the te150i is a full size bike making 38hp
@@tcmx712 thank u
I've got 10 hours on my 2021 te150i. Awesome and very capable bike! This review nails what this bike is all about!
Just outta curiosity what was your out the door price on your 21?
@@willdavis5105 it was $10,370 out the door. I have 16 hours on the bike now and it was worth every penny!
@@Dirtymutt9 $10,750 was what I was quoted here. I’m tempted to get one but the price is the only thing I’m contemplating.
23 hours now and loving it. Barely ride my Yz250 any more!
about 45 hours and put an RK Tek head on the bike. It's been flawless!
This bike reminds me my days on a Kawasaki KDX 200, long rides and plenty fun
@Johnny Rebellion bikes not really made for drag racing. Its a enduro bike, it excels in tight single track and rocky terrain.
Controllable power is the key word love this bike, if you are scouting or exploring this bike is hard to beat!!
When I got my ktm 150tpi (Same engine)I was a bit disappointed that there was no real power band hit until it almost topped out. I wound the power valve screw out 1.5 turns. It now kicks in upper/mid range and has that distinct 2 stroke feel yet still has lower end luggability.
How you did that?
Brilliant review
I used to ride a KTM300XC, glad to hear you explaining the difference. I loved my 300 but the power was almost uncontrollable for me. I always had to be ready for it, whisky throttle, haha. This bike sounds like more my speed.
If I could have any enduro bike this would be the one
Nice review. Tks
If only Husky ( KTM) would make this a 200 cc they couldn't keep up with the demand.
Have you had a chance to ride the KTM 150 XC W? Essentially same bike eh?
my buddy and I both bought 2021 TE150's and neither of us can feel any difference between map I and II on these bikes. I have to wonder if it 'seven doing anything at all. We have both been riding motocross for 30 years each and know how bikes behave in all situations and there is NO perceptible difference in the ignition maps now. Ive heard people say it kills the 150 and dont even bother with map II so I have to wonder whats going on with out new 2021's now. Did KTM/Husq change map II to be almost identical to map I? Is there any difference in maps at all now?
ive watched your review so many times now , ive looked at this bike at a dealer, its so lite. ive never had a dirtbike before, i normally ride atvs, im looking at this for fun, im 44 years old 140lbs, 5.6" tall. i normally ride a r1250gs also, im trying to decide if im not too old to get into this bike for fun weekend trips, easy trails.
I’m considering as well (only ridden street bikes). Did you end up picking one up?
@@brandona5042 too much $$, wishful thinking for now
....it's a nice bike I think I want to buy one to have for a play bike but I'd much rather have a premix 40:1 bike with my amsoil.... I'm looking at other Italian companies..... I want the original old-school 2-stroke 200cc or 150cc play bike power.....
Great review I moved of my2018 yz250x to a crf250rx... looking g to back to something lighter how does this 150 compare to a 250r power wise? I'm a vet rider and short at 5foot 5in. I'm finding the crf250rx to a tank in the trails!
How did you like your yz250x? I had a yz125 geared down for trails. It was fun but I didn't like the lack of low end grunt. I think a 150 would be closer to the sweet spot for most single track outside of high altitude.
@@leep814 I loved the yz250x! I am finding that this yz125x can do it all, and really enjoy it! I will never go back to a 4 stroke...
Can this bike still also do decent on a motcross track?
I am looking at the TE 150i and TE250i, any suggestions? I mainly ride woods/trails in the northeast that would consider more technical.
@Sinister Veritas 250
@Sinister Veritas yeah I got out a few times. I felt like I would regret the 150. 150 seems to be a bit more technical and you need to shift more to keep everything in the power band. My buddy got the KTM 250 equivalent and he loves it as well. He came from a 450 4 stroke.
Your weight and height are huge factors. I'm at 5'8", 140lbs and have gone from 250 to 200 to now the 150i. Love it and riding faster and better than ever. Also find my riding improved getting back on larger bore bikes, more confident I suppose..
Go TE300I!! TORQUE ...HP...AND LUGGING FOR DAYS!!
Best
Ok so i'm looking to buy a Husky or a ktm 150. Which brand do you prefer and why ?
There’s no real difference outside of the bodywork and subframe. Pick whichever you can get a better price on and like the look of more.
@@vitalmx Thank you
How does it handle on hills with loose rock?
Handling wise, it is great, but power wise, you'll struggle. It just doesn't have a ton of HPs and unless you can get a good run at a hill and carry a lot of momentum, the lack of torque can be an issue.
What is faster 150exc or te150i
its 99% the same bike
Do you think this bike is faster than a CRF-150R ? My girlfirend has that - but it's a real pain in the @ss to start when cold, and the jetting's IMPOSSIBLE. She's only 5'2 though - and her skills are limited - so i was thinking about this, lowered. She likes to go FAST tho - so a porker like the CRF-230 isn't an option.
Is this can be road legal ?
Don't think it worth $8k or so price tag if it doesn't have the torque to hill climb..
The 2021/22 150i has my head all messed up! Have KTM XC-F 250 ordered for next spring, buy the reviews on the TE are completely throwing me for a loop. Fuel injected, oil injected, fuel mapping, ES with kick backup, 219 lb 2 stroke?? Fuck me! No crazy power band snap, consistent 4 stroke type linear power? May have to rethink things!
Does Husqvarna make a endurocross 125 or 150?
I don’t think any of the brands make an endurocross specific bike. They make enduro or motorcross bikes.
Enduro bikes would be much better for endurocross than motorcross
Angus Loughor-Clarke okay thank you
Ktm makes a free ride exc that’s electric so if your just doing shorter endurocross it would be great
Hayden Cash but you don’t have clutch control on those bikes?
So it's slow is what you're saying
is it street legal
would i fit on it being 5’8
Its a full sized bike with a smaller engine.
please how much KW have engine on 150i?
Kilowatts?
@@vitalmx yes
@@vitalmx 1 cv = 0.746 kW
What is the height
roughly 98kg
37 inch seat

Sounddddddd
This is awesome. I still have my 1976 360 WR Husquvarna. In great shape but needs a bit of TLC. Tank has a big dent in it. I'm 65 but i'd love this new Husky. And more info. Also Anyone who knows where I can get help getting my tank fixed and bike restored let me know. Tmpg55@sbcglobal.net
Way to expensive
Compared to what?
@@spunkysandoval Think hes comparing how his bank account is!
A matter of perspective. Anything toy that is new and shiny comes with a new and shiny price tag. You can always buy a used 125 and build it up.
way cheaper than a 300. Lower MSRP and you can deal on a 150.
Yes, I bargained for mine to be 1.5k off MSRP! Awesome bike!
