Husqvarna has revealed the 2021 enduro model lineup and the no-surprise surprise is there are no mechanical or structural changes for the new year. After the big revamp in 2020 that’s not such a huge surprise, and quite possibly the lockdown also put a spanner in the works when it came to continued R&D. So the news for 2021 is very close to that at KTM – bold new graphics.
Husqvarna says the models will arrive in their dealerships from June 22 onwards.
RUST SAYS:
The Bold New Graphics certainly are an improvement. Much nicer design (well done chaps). (Warren has been bound and gagged – no comment there! see: https://rustsports.com/ktm-exc250-tpi-vs-husqvarna-te250i/)
