Husaberg introduces a TE125 for 2012
!action2.jpg!
Husaberg wants to open up access to the brand for even more Enduro enthusiasts. Therefore the model range is further expanded by the addition of a new model, the TE 125.
After the bigger-bore two-stroke models last year which have proven very successful in racing (victory at Hell’s Gate, Tough One, Extreme Lagares and Vice-World Champions title in the Indoor Enduro World Championship), this new addition to the Husaberg model range will attract even more new customers to Husaberg. There’s the passionate 125cc riders and, even more importantly, the young Enduro enthusiasts and racers from 16 onwards. It is the next logical step for Husaberg to become a full-range 100% enduro brand attracting new young customers.

The TE 125 is unbeatable in terms of easy handling and with the top of the range components like the closed-cartridge fork, machined triple clamps and translucent 11 litre tank it will easy choice for all E1 racers who want the best price/performance ratio of the class.

New look, better “Husability”
The look of the 2012 model range has been refreshed, not only by new graphics but also by very useful changes and additions. A very convenient change which also contributes to the fresh and light overall appearance of the bikes is the completely translucent fuel tank for all FE and TE models, which makes it even easier to determine the fuel level in the tank. The yellow coated frame might only be there for looks but the addition of very stable MX handguards offers excellent protection and further underlines the high level of equipment offered as standard on the Husaberg models — like the frame protection (all models) and the engine protection (all models but TE 125).

Only the best components
Of course Husaberg remains true to its premium standards and therefore all models feature the top of the range suspension with a closed-cartridge front fork and the fully adjustable PDS shock. The fork is held in place by machined triple clamps whereby the upper triple clamp is a new, lighter and more rigid version offering even better clamping characteristics for the 2012 models.
The high performance brakes featured on the 2012 Husaberg models are again supplied by Brembo, the shrouds are manufactured using the latest in-mould technology making them more resistant to wear and the hydraulic clutch actuation and the electric start button (all models but TE 125) are mounted on an extremely rigid Neken aluminium handlebar.
The big-bore two-stroke models TE 250 and TE 300 receive a new reed valve block for even better throttle response and the TE 300 also features a new cylinder for increased bottom-end power. The standard on-the-fly ignition switch is replaced in 2012 by a new, smaller version — so far only available from Husaberg’s accessories program. Last but not least Husaberg will be expanding the Husaberg Factory Team’s long-standing cooperation with Michelin on to the standard bikes by equipping all models in 2012 with Michelin Enduro Competition III tyres.

Value for money
Although still using only the best components available on the market and not compromising any detail when it comes to build quality, focusing on the core Enduro models, complimenting better sourcing terms resulting from a steadily growing sales volume over the last three years, Husaberg can now pass on these cost benefits to its Husaberg riders with more attractive retail prices
- for the 2012 models.
