    After reading a bunch of "issue" threads about Huskies, I thought I'd post something nice. My bike is a 2011 TXC 250 - yes, just a little 250. This used to be my son's old race bike before he went back to Hondas. We had to rebuild it once (bottom and top) due to a stupid little rubber boot failure that allowed it to ingest dirt and wreck the head. Anyway...I run this bike now with the stock exhaust (a little loud :( ), 12 port injector and 2012 ECU. I am a Vet B rider, coming off any bike imaginable...KTM's (2 and 4 strokes) Yamaha YZ's, Honda CR's, Kawis and on and on. Small bores, big bores....etc. Anyway long story short, I still think that the TXC ranks right up there as one of my all time favorites. Handling/steering is awesome, clutch action is perfect (courtesy of the MME lever), the little motor makes more "usable" power than most bikes I have owned - mind you, at 215 pounds I am no light weight. I ride New England stuff as well as some GNCC's etc...there are only very few times when I actually wished for a litlle more power (long starting straights and the occasional long uphills), but overall I find the 250 the perfect motor for me. I did try the 310 and could get used to that, but I didn't like it enough to feel like I had to switch. I guess my point is, I like my 250 TXC :)

    Good post. I have a pile of huskys and love them. Great bikes. All bikes have issues. Forums tend to bring people looking for solutions so it seems like there is a lot of issues.

    I love huskies, in fact I bleed husky. I own 2 if I could I would have more. I started a race team and these are the only bikes I want to use.

    I say no matter what bike you ride[ yes even if it is not a husky] and you enjoy riding it good on you , this sport is all about the enjoyment because at the end of the day if you didnt enjoy it you wouldnt do it. If its a 125 or 2300cc whether you ride a blue bike, orange bike, green bike or a white/red bike that doesnt matter , I ride a Te449 and my oldest rides a KTM and the young bloke a Yamaha but the most enjoyment I get is spending time with them and thats what it is all about. SO WOLF ENJOY THE RIDE.
