    Any one really know if the Husaberg TE300 is lighter then a WR 300

    Getting my ideas together as soon I will have to get a new Husky be it a Husaberg with Husky stickers or wait one more year and hope for something new from the Husaberg/Husky shop
    Or just get a left over WR300 since I have so many spares

    My owners booklet states that it weighs somewhere in the neighborhood of 223 pounds, dry, which is what my KDX 220 claims as well. The funny thing is that the WR300 feels a lot lighter to ride than my 220. It also felt lighter than my buddy's KTM 300. It must have something to do with the center of gravity.:excuseme:

    It is but not much - I think it was 2 kg - 5 lbs lighter. I will check its in an old mag I have.
    Stick with the Huskys

    jan 2011 ADB test
    weighed with fuel
    Hussy - 114.4kg
    Husky - 116.6 kg
    TM - 110.7
    gas gas - 120.5
    ktm - 114.6
    TE was the clear winner of test with a score of 8.68 Wr - 7.74 - ( One of the test riders is a factory KTM rider)
    straight line - wr was quickest off the line until the higher geared bikes overtook
    lap times much the same which is good since the Husky would have been unfamiliar

    I've been told by someone who had both the Huss is more race orientated and the husky is more everything orientated. Love my 300. Does everything perfect.

    My bike started out as a 2010 Zip Ty Racing 2 stroke National race bike Who knows what it is now
    Still a stock WR 300 motor with older CR electronicts
    Stock Carb off a 2006 WR 250
    Ohliens suspention ft and rear The best money can buy
    Motion pro Clutch cable with ARC levers really made a difference
    Stock gearing no matter where I race 13/48
    FMF pipe with FMF sparkarrestor still no pipe guard
    Stock tank with dry break holds 3 gallons
    Hyde skid plate
    Flat land rad guards
    BRP chain guide
    Iron man sprockets
    I also run bib mousses front and rear with Dunlop Geo Max 51 tires 90/100/21 and 100/110/18
    Used these same tires at every National this year all over the south west
    The bike flat works with the Ohliens suspention and Bib Mousses in the tires you can hit just about any thing you want the suspention will soak it up and the tires will not go flat
    So it looks like unless Husky/Husaberg comes out with something really special there is no need for doing this all over again with a new Husky/Husaberg Which will not have interchangable parts with all the other Husky I already have.
    so I better quit watching all those Gram Garvis extream enduro videos Because he sure makes that Husaberg soon to be called a Husky look good
    Maybe Letti needs to make a few off road videos with the Wr 300 before he is on a Blue and Yellow Husaberg/Husky Then I really will want a new bike
    OR forget about thinking about it and just go ride
