2021 Husqvarna FE350 vs FE450

[@TroyAdam]

awesome vid mate, that river side track is so sweet

[@ktmkall9812]

Yeah mate, nice and flowy 👌, not quite as open now days with new trees down and more lantana but still good fun👍

[@uaeenduro4266]

Hey very nice video, just a random question, do you feel 450 is too strong for this kind of terrain? If you had a choice fe 250 or fe 450 what would you choose?

[@ktmkall9812]

No, I am very happy with the power of the 450. The 250 is fun in the right conditions where you can stretch its legs and get it reving, but in the riding I am doing mostly, the 450 grunt works better. I am a lazy rider so the torque of the 450 works well. It also is happy to idle around in the tight stuff without getting hot and stalling too much.👍

@@ktmkall9812 thanks alot for your detailed answer, you made my mind clear, i was confused between these two as different people were giving me different opinions, but the lazy part gave me an answer 😀 thanks alot man, cheers

[@ktmkall9812]

@@uaeenduro4266 haha, yes if you like to just grunt around and not have to work the bike through the gears to get the most out of it , the 450 is definitely the pick of the 2👌

[@thumburnfishing]

How does the 450 go for vibration compared to the 350 I have a 2020 ktm 500 and it vibrates to much Cheers love the ride

[@ktmkall9812]

Both of them vibrate about the same amount I believe. Unbelievable I know, but a noticeable amount more than the counterbalanced tpi 2 strokes also!

[@thumburnfishing]

My sons ktm 350exc is half what my 500 vibrates

[@brettfoster8578]

Is this in addition to the 790 mate? Don’t tell me you got rid of the big girl.

[@ktmkall9812]

No mate,. still got the big fatty. , Won't be selling it for a awhile yet. We are going to be doing a 10 day ride in October up north Queensland which will be awesome. Will have to pull the GoPro out for it👍

[@brettfoster8578]

Sweet. Heading off on mine this week for 4 days actually. Weather looks a bit dodgey but got to make the most of lockdown free conditions. Some benefits to living in SA. 😬 Enjoy your trip and I look forward to the footage.

[@ktmkall9812]

Good stuff 👍, fortunately we have been virtually unaffected by covid lockdowns to date, but things could change at any stage in this wild situation. Have fun on the big girl 🤙

[@scottyd2262]

Where is this in QLD ??

[@ktmkall9812]

State forest west of Mackay mate.

@@ktmkall9812 I bought a 21 FE350 Rockstar Edition 6 months ago. I'm trading it in tomorrow for a 22 FE450. The 350 is just too boring when it comes to it's power delivery. Even with a Vortex ecu FMF pipe & vented airbox it feels like a girls bike.. If you came from a MX background, you wont be happy with it. I thought that I'd be able to modify it for more snap. Nothing like the FX or FC350's unfortunately ..

[@ktmkall9812]

@@scottyd2262 the exc's are definitely down on grunt compared to the sx and xcf's, even the 450 enduros are tuned to make very smooth power, they can even feel a little uninspiring if you jump straight off an sx 450, but that is what makes them so easy to ride fast or slow. I reckon my 12 model exc450 had more explosive grunt than my 21 fe450 but it still makes enough to get ripping 👍

¿What did you do in minute 11:24?

[@ktmkall9812]

Just a shitty little climb out of the creek.

[@KDXXREXCXR]

@@ktmkall9812 But why did you press that button?

[@ktmkall9812]

Traction control button, helps maintain traction and reduce wheel spin 👍

[@KDXXREXCXR]

@@ktmkall9812 Thanks

[@dawidswanepoel2523]

Both 4strokes are much better than 2 smokes

[@ktmkall9812]

Still loving the change back to the 450.👍

[@tolgasen2019]

It’s a preference ofc and it depends on where you ride. I’d never leave my 2 smoker on hard enduro stuff.

[@AdventureMotoEnduro]

ill have to bring up the gasgas marw

[@ktmkall9812]

Certainly will mate👍

[@BuzzyRR]

Nothing more annoying than people who put “Vs” in their title when there is literally zero versus, neither with a review nor competitively.

[@ktmkall9812]

So annoying isn't it. Feel sorry for you mate👍
