TE/TC 2016 TE 300

Yes that is correct I said 2016 TE 300


I got a phone call today from 3Bro Racing Newport Beach calif and was TOLD my bike is in the US
and early next week it will start its cross country freight trip ride to So Calif

That is the best news I have had in awhile

Good news indeed! Is going to get, your usual Ohlins suspension upgrade?

I would like to upgrade to the Ohlins BUT the purchase price of $10,000 just for a dirt bike with no extras has me rethinking the whole concept.
But I am sure once I see it my vision will cloud out my brain of all reasonable thought

Money is over rated.... lol

Money cant buy happiness.... but it can buy Ohlins and thats the same thing....

I hear you on the 10k bike.... just sell 20-30 more cars and boom Ohlins magically appear at your door

I sold 3 used cars yesterday so I am on the way you need a car or truck let me know we also ship world wide

a van would be nice

SO, first maiden Voyage on the 300. I can say this is one of the sweetest motors I have ever ridden. I came off a 2011 gas gas EC300 and I also have a 2015 6 days KTM 350exc and i've fallen back in love with the two strokes.
The bike just pulls and is really smooth from idle till it comes on there pipe. The bike turns on a dime, it has a really tight turning radius and the fit feels very neutral for me..standard bars in the fwd position and I feel comfortable..Im 6'1 and weight 88Kg's dry..

Now for the suspension…I found these forks to be absolutely terrible..they are like a jackhammer in the initial first part of the stroke and I could not get them to track very well, they have a tendency to skip over the terrain. I personally cannot feel any improvements over the 2015 4CS forks which my 350 had on them, if anything they are worse. I currently have the full Kreft setup on the KTM and there is night and day difference.

I can't wait to have more seat time on this bike, but my first mod is definitely a complete suspension overhaul !!!

Happy riding fellas

Good luck on the ride... the forks definitely are going to need help

is that photo at stainos joint mick ryan?

I'm really digging the Flo yellow

i just put wht fork guards on and i may chanhge to 16 plastics for an update

Yes sir, The 2016 Husky's are getting their own identity alright, by using up the Blue "Husaberg" front shroud panels now. Easy enough to update the 2015 to the look of the 2016 specs on the 2ts. I recently bought a set of factory packaged Blue side panels from rocky mountain for $14.00 a piece. Then they jumped up real fast in price. The Husky factory Enduro graphics for the entire set of plastics are only $116.00. I have a set for a complete set of black plastics going on my '15 FE 501 this winter when the damaging thickest brush dies off a little.

but they are fully enclose style so i cut them and now they suck...... so i will most likely switch to the open back ones on the newer bikes.

I cant stand the full fork guards.... Mine were sliced already when I got it and both races the right side was flipped out.... I would just buy some open even if they were pink

Hey mate, yeah that was down at Kirup ride park..some nice single trail through there hey !

yeah its pretty good bit rocky in places though but still worth it. 'berm city' is fun plus the kids trails. love smashin out laps on the mx track then goin & cutting trails to break it up. wanna get down there one more time before they close for summer. you on perth trail scene? if you want good riding mate head down my way(bunbury) can show you some very good stuff! pm me if you want my number & tee up a ride mate. cheers, shawry

Yep, definitely need to catch up for a ride before it gets too warm and dusty !!

Well I picked up my bike and went for a ride Before I even rode it I mounted up my golden Tyres on a spare set of wheels I purchased with the bike. Then I took off the lights that's it
Rode it about 100 yards and came back to the truck and made a adjustment
Turned ALL the clickers to full soft Then one click toward hard ALL of them If I am going to play in the rocks lets make it soft. The suspention will need some Zip Ty Love but it has potential
The motor ran great I did not touch a thing
The gearing in stock trim was ok first is super low and 6th should see 70 mph and over once broke in
The overall feel of the bike is small I really need to move the bars forward and maybe a different bend for me. The Husky grips are to hard will change to AME type
I have a 2 page list of things I want to purchase So by next ride will have a few more things
Overall I see this is a good bike If some one was just a trail rider I see them not having to do much The motor and gearing just says take me to the hills and try and stall it imposable

Really want to say thanks to Richardo at 3 Brother Racing for the super deal on a new TE 300
