FE/FC Coming from TXC310R, which Husky (KTM based) would be best for me?

This is true, but eventually Husky will be its own brand hopefully, at which time I would like to try one again. Actually if I had the chance id try one now.

Well the new husky's are just white KTM's anyways "Oh no you didn't lol

If KTM's were so great they wouldn't need a premium brand . "

So they can get more of your money

I can't see this ever happening since the frame, and motor base will always be the same. Husqvarna will be slightly different but never it's own identity under the KTM family.

a good example GM products- Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird. Same bones different skin.
logical/profitable biz structure points to that future (and current) scenario.

The best example is Cimarron VS Cavalier. One is base priced $6000 and the other is $12,000. Sure there was some comfort items but 2x the cost. Same sheep different wool!

I was thinking more Toyota and Lexus

Not sure where you are located but I was in Halls today and they have one 2014 FE350 and one FE501 left and are marked down.

All I can say is that I had to spend more money for my ktm over my husky, and that was hard for me to do at first, but eventually after riding it I knew the money was well spent and that I can honestly say in the dirt bike world you certainly get what you pay for. Don't get me wrong, I didn't dislike my husky at all, in fact I loved it in the woods, it's just that the ktm does everything easier, faster and better. Just a bit better suspension, better refinements, better motor, and smoother brakes, and slimmer and just more comfortable plastics and riding position all come together to make the bike feel better in all situations.
