Husqvarna FE350 DUAL SPORT FIRST IMPRESSIONS

[@eveRide]

Happy Thanksgiving everybody! I want you to know that I'm grateful for YOU for riding with me today in the digiworld! I love this time of year... the time of rampant materialism! Where on the day after Thanksgiving we show all that gratitude by completely forgetting all the things we already have and blowing as much money as possible on MOAR! ;) In all honesty, if you're planning on picking up some gifts online (for somebody else or for yourself) then please consider using the links at the top of everideadv.com to access your favorite online retailers like Amazon, Rocky Mountain ATV MC, eBay, etc. Using those links helps my channel a TON! If you're doing any shopping online, even if you don't use mine, please use links from your favorite KZbinr! It seriously makes a massive difference!

[@kyjelly5524]

eveRide ADV did you prefer the husky 350 over the beta 480?

[@ronpeterd8429]

I've had my 2016 FE350s since new. I've made a few mods (lowered, seat, rack...etc) but the biggest improvement I found was adding 11 grams of clutch weight. It idles in the rough like a trials bike. Love this bike and ride it everyday.

[@tylergady2019]

Curious how you go about that. I ride a Beta evo trials bike for single track riding, but am looking to move back to a regular trail bike. I've never heard of adding clutch weight, so it helps with lower speed trail riding?

[@nickg2431]

hi 11grams is almost nothing .would you tell us a little more please

[@dukegnarley]

I think if you get those two bikes out of the desert and up into the woods you will notice a bigger difference. That extra weight will wear you out much quicker.

[@thealvaco]

Very true

[@jthebk3864]

That’s one of the great things about dual sports there’s really no perfect bike for everyone someone should do a video showing best bikes for different terrain woods, desert , urban , and maybe best bike for doing all of them

[@davidc1961utube]

So if you live in the desert...

[@hops6326]

I got a husky fe350 it's perfect for me, dirt roads to work, excellent control for the mountain riding in BC, gotta keep up on the maintenance but with anything you take care of it and it will last forever

[@HardcoreWeeaboo]

@@hops6326 hey! Can it cruise on road at 70 mph without a problem? Dream bike omgg

[@MotoMatsalleh]

*HELP NEEDED FROM DUAL SPORTERS* I'm an American living in Malaysia. Over the last year or two I've moved squarely into realizing that dualsporting is my ideal rising style. I'm 30 mins to 1.5 hours from a ton of trails that go from mild to nearly extreme difficulty when wet. So I could regularly do days with 100km on backroads and 100km onroad in a day. Here is the big challenge: basically none of the standard Japanese dual sport bikes that would be obvious choices. Drz 400, Dr 650, klr 650, either never came to Malaysia or are rare and I'd never find parts and a mechanic to fix them. My only true dual sport choices are the klx250 and crf250L. Those just don't really do it for me and once I modded them how I know I'd need to, they would be more expensive than they would be fun. But something interesting here, a ton of people get a fancy Enduro, a KTM, husky, or sherco, and then get sick of paying to keep up the maintenance schedule. This is something Malaysians hate. So they depreciate really really fast. I regularly see the following bikes lightly used for right around 5kUSD: KTM exc-f 250/350 and sherco 250/300 four stroke. Most of the mechanics that work on these bikes here basically talk like they will all explode if they touch pavement. I'm seeing the exc-f 500 making round the world trips, you loved the fe350 (same engine as the exc-f) on the road at mild speed. Am I crazy to want to dual sport a bike like this? 1 hour on backroads, two hours offroad, 1 hour back? I'm not going to race, my trail riding will be slower than many. I'm just having a hard time believing that a little pavement at 50mph is kryptonite for these bikes. Help me out guys/gals that know more than me. Especially if you are riding a KTM/husky/sherco on the road some

[@aatoratog]

it's fine on road as long as speed is below 60ish and you keep up with maintenance. 15hr oil changes, people get lots of hours out of the top end. things can go wrong though... I had a plastic oil pump idler gear fail that grenaded my engine.

[@aatoratog]

it's not really a street bike or a dual sport, it's a dirt bike. service and maintenance are all like a dirt bike.

[@MotoMatsalleh]

@@aatoratog so are you of the opinion that dual sporting and trail riding would maybe allow you to change the oil often and check the valves but leave the top end until there are signs of issues?

[@MotoMatsalleh]

Mechanically speaking, I'm not seeing the extreme difference between an exc-f, a 690 Enduro, and a wr250r (compression, hp per liter, etc) and of course what's written in the manual for maintenance intervals. To be clear, I'm not talking about if you are racing or really ripping

[@aatoratog]

@@MotoMatsalleh yes as long as you keep up with oil changes, keep air filter clean and check valves you should be good. I heard people getting 100-300 maybe even up to 500 hours out of top end. I used mine like a dual sport but it's def a dirt bike. it's identical engine to the dirt bikes with a bit more emission stuff on it and different mapping. 690 has 10,000 km service intervals and you don't need to change oil and air filter every 15 hours.

[@TortureTestMagazine]

A genius way of avoiding the hoosk-var-nuh trolls haha!

[@minnionator]

Ive always been an "old worn out japanese bike" kind of guy too......I bought a 2017 FE350 this spring and never looked back. Love it!

[@Lawman-196]

I have the Husky 450fe and love it. The major flaw you didn't mention is the crazy short maintenance intervals.....15 hrs. Great vid!

[@JackLowry1313]

I have one that's just over a year old with 1600 miles and it's been in the shop for problems 6 times. Fuel pump, chain, ignition, battery, etc. If I had to do it ocer again I'd but Japanese.

[@ChaoticDetour]

It might just be my mood but this was your best edited bike review yet. As cool as the new bikes are it is amazing at what you can do for half the money, $2000 DRZ plus $3000 in custom suspension and other mods will make one great bike set up specifically for the owner.

[@peteransel2715]

Excellent video and great self-depreciating sense of humor. Much appreciated! After much research on new dual sports for camping adventures in the Sierra Mountains' forest roads of California with my twenty year old son, I bought two used, street legal, '96 XR250R's. The engines are bone stock, with the only simple mods being 4 gallon (18 L) IMS tanks, Seat Concept saddles, bar risers, wider foot pegs, and 14/45 gearing (compared to 13/48 stock). 80% of us are not even riding our dual sport/ADV bikes to 20% of their abilities, so at 240 lbs (108 kg), a comfortable 65 mph (105 km/h) asphalt cruising speed, no liquid cooling hoses to worry about, no injector pump to fail, low maintenance, and a very easy two kick (max) starting system, these bikes may be the lightest, simplest, most reliable, most fun, dual sport/lightweight ADV bikes ever made.

[@aaronbehindbars]

They call it the "6 Days" because that's how often it needs maintenance... I wonder what the maintenance schedule is like on the Husky? This 350 does seem to hit a sweet spot in terms of power, freeway speed, and weight.

[@offroadtrailrider77]

Aaron Fink well my 2012 KTM 350 exc-f has been flawless. 120 hours and all I have done is oil change and cleaned air filter and tires. Trail riding, slabbing, , adventure exploration, and enduro racing is what it’s seen. So far super low maintenance. Flawless EFI as well. Picked it up used for $4500 with only 60 hours. Can’t wait to get another one in the future. Nothing busted on it. All stock except for emissions junk removed and a FMF Q muffler.

[@mototrailz]

yeah me too...just sold my 450 six days 2017 in under 5 days being on craigslist. 5500 miles and 190hours with the same sparks plug. That KTM maintenance BS is over since 2014-15...and they know it but yet they still hate....whatever....they are missing out as the video above is pointing out. Also good resale value and i got mine as a left over for $9500...so no brainer...if you want to have fun...i mean real fun!

[@australiaadventure1166]

You ride a Grom Aaron enough said.

[@davidc1961utube]

KTM Trailrider the point I think is that you are counting hours, and my wimpy 300 lb WR250R counts thousands of kilometres. Power, weight, reliability. Pick any two...

[@offroadtrailrider77]

David Clark I owned 2 WR250R’s and after taking them all around Colorado and BigBend I determined I needed bikes that were more performance oriented wrt suspension and power. I sold them and got KTM 500 and 350. That was 6 years ago and never regretted it. When I ride I want the best performing machine. I was concerned about KTM reliability but so far that has not materialized. I see the WR250R as a steppingstone to the KTMs. I will say if I wanted long range distance then I would probably get one of the new 2019 ktm 690 enduros. They are on my short list. Too many bikes and not enough time to ride. Wish I lived in southern Utah.

[@m.r.t9298]

eveRide don't sound so surprised that the chase bike was keeping up with the Husky. It's a well known fact that it boils down to 80% rider and 20% bike, I learned it back in the 70's as a kid reading Motocross Action or Dirt Bike magazine I forget which. Love the vids. Keep twisting the throttles. Happy holidays.

[@RWWRENTAL]

GIVE eveRIDE 100k subs already!!! he deserves it. One of the best dual sport YT i know

[@samueljlarson]

Love the FE350 but also appreciate how you're loyal to the DRZ and and other japanese dual sports despite their short comings. I have always prioritized economy and reliability over performance and flare but the FE is tempting me I admit. Great review!

[@Trad-Am]

Should really try the 500's of ya get a chance, definitely feel heavier with their larger reciprocating mass in the engine, but actual weight is very close. Then there's the grunt factor, you can always ride it in a taller gear, and not really worry about shifting much. The one mod I found necessary, at least on my 2014 Husaberg fe501(basically a Husky without the linkage) was a throttle tamer, as in stock form the 500efi's really hit hard off idle. Now I also did the rekluse core exp 3.0 auto clutch, but that was for the low rpm technical stuff I like without stalling. I don't like the heavier clutch pull, or engagement feel as much as stock, and if it was a 300 2 stroke it's totally unneeded, but the 500 4t's do flame out easy at low rpm. That's really the biggest bummer, because the low rpm torque, and traction are amazing, but the rekluse was a decent compromise, even if or makes you lazy.

[@michaeljkasnter]

Love the H voice over !!! I could hear that all day everyday!!!

[@TaterGrabbinBass]

I recently picked up a 21’ Husqvarna fe350s and it’s a blast, I got it with 220mi with a bunch of mods on it that was owned by a guy in his late 60’s so it’s pretty much brand new and what I paid for it was pretty much a deal I couldn’t pass up so I had to scoop it up! Once the temps in AZ go down a bit I’m going to be hitting the trails every weekend and I cannot wait! I hope it cools down soon so I can start my journey asap.

[@timt1346]

Honestly, the 500 has the same problem with the brakes. "Full kung-fu grip" is probably the best description I've heard so far. I prefer the slower revs on the 500, but the 350 is still quite good, even under my 6'3", 250lb carcass. The suspension always needs to be tuned, so really the pogo gripe is probably because it's a borrowed bike, not owned. Pretty good review overall though.

[@ridingdeep8530]

I really like my dual-sported KTM 350XC-F, generally just the right amount of power - especially for our technical riding up here. I think the big difference between the 400 and the 350, at least for technical riding would be the weight, there is a pretty big difference between the two. Also, I bought my 2011 350XC for $4,000 not long ago and have invested a couple hundred in dual-sport stuff, no need to break the bank.

[@rockymtndieselrider1133]

I own one. 2018. Love it! Wife has the 18 fe250

[@tonyrichengod9280]

I can imagine. I just had the chance to test ride my first KTM 4-stroke, a 2018 450 EXC-F. What a REVELATION! Absolute PERFECTION and several levels above any Japanese-made dirt bike (and I own a DRZ). That ride was pure BLISS.

[@Gravelcruiser]

Love the comparisons. I too have the occasional thought of purchasing a euro bike and making payments. Videos like these keep me grounded, and I mean that in a good way. Sure there are benefits to newer tech but those benefits come at a cost. My older tech Asian bikes just deliver more smiles per dollar and if that allows me to ride more places then that's what counts to me.

[@jasonperryphoto]

They're amazing bikes! I bought a '17 500 EXC and I couldn't be happier. My buddy has a 350 and he feels the same way... thousands of miles on it and no valve adjustment or repairs have been needed. It's rock solid. I had to put a Vortex on mine to solve the flameout/emissions issues but, when I did, it just got sooooo much better. After seeing the exploits of @Braaping_kiwi and his 60k miles 500 EXC, I'm super-tempted to "adventurize" mine take it on longer trips. Light, fast, capable! What more could you ask for?

[@toddkurtz7635]

One small correction, the weight difference between the two bikes is not 80 pounds. I have a 2017 KTM500 excf and my brother has a 2011 DRZ400S. The KTM weighs 260 pounds with a full tank and the Drz weighs 317 with a full tank. A difference of 57 pounds. How do I know? I weighed them both on a shipping scale 2 days ago. And the Husky 350fe weighs the same as my 500 due to the fact that it has linkage compared to the KTMs no linkage suspension. It's amazing how many people overestimate the weight of a DRZ400 and underestimate the weight of the KTM/Husky bikes.

[@ObliviousMonk]

i've got the husqvarna fe350, it actually weighs 220 pounds, and i've ridden the 500 excf, the weight difference is pretty noticeable. so the drz would feel like im riding around on an adventure bike lol

[@graemesydney38]

You just learnt; it is not the bike that makes the rider look good, it is the rider who makes the bike look good,

[@hissenpissen3588]

Finally! Someone saying "Husqvarna" right (the first time). Greetings from Sweden.

[@toltod]

I went from a xt250 I got for my girlfriend (which I heavily borrowed) and went for a Husky 501. Very glad I went bigger, but didn't get the 701. Light, nimble and suspension is night and day comparison. Being a bigger bloke, I was tempted by the 350/450 dual sports and also didn't want to get into the heavier 600cc machines. Realized the first time I had to pick it up on single track that I made the right decision...that 500 has the torque and upgrading to heavier springs (since I am a typical Wisconsin body type) made the ride able to soak up big hits. Sure I've read the clutch slave cylinder may need replacement, but so far I"ve got around 1k miles and just been keeping up on oil /air filter changes and its been treating me kindly, even though its been on alot of single/dual track enduro rides. And I would like an aluminum sub-frame for hauling camping gear, but so far, l like my 2017 501.

[@WADZUP]

Well said Fe501 amigo!!

[@cspoon123]

Haha that was a funny conclusion. Suzuki keeping up the the Husky that is. Sure if you ride slow enough on the Husky the Zuki can keep up... But really the smile that 350 will put on you face is priceless. I have a KTM six days version, its still a great all around bike.

[@olddirtbiker5088]

I just bought a 2016 Husky FE350s with 1200 miles for $5900. So far I'm very impressed, but I haven't ridden it enough yet. The previous owner geared it down quite a bit and it's an amazing tractor in singletrack. Not as fast with this gearing as my old 2004 Yamaha WR450 but I don't intend to ride it on the street, and it does have 6 gears instead of 5. The electric start works well, unlike my WR450, but I intend to install the Husky kick start kit anyway as I sometimes ride alone. My only complaints so far--no tachometer, and the cold start button is so far up in the frame you have to get off the bike to use it.

350 is beast, it's the only 4 stroke I would own.

And there it is! I was waiting for the direct comparison to the DRZ and you nailed it. While I'm sure I would absolutely love the FE350 I'm now not so sure that the extra $8k would be worth it. I'm glad to say that Xena is still my Endurocorn.

[@hwobstj]

I love my 2018 big time. My only disappointment was how quickly the right side plastics melted and melted my riding pants too. I ride a lot at high altitude in CO so I wasn’t prepared for the lean mixture this bike was factory spec’d with. After some research I purchased a KTM and Husky fuel programmer. Not legal for highway use (ahem, ahem), and their exhaust upgrade to cool down the exhaust flow. So far so good. The bike is super sweet in every way I could hope for and, like you, it fits right in there for the light weight dual sport application. The nice thing about the fuel programmer is that it’s really just plug and play. It’s already set up for my bike they way it came with no adjustments necessary.

[@timmychen6]

I wish I have a nice place for a ride like that in the video. Most of the trails here are full freaking harsh environment with super slippery mud, roots, and rocks. I have to lower the psi to 5 and proceed like 10-20 miles per hour with frequent drops.

[@johnnyrebellion8672]

I just put a deposit down on a 2022 FE 350s. I can afford it only because I am selling my 2021 Yamaha Tenere 700. I dual sport it and at 500lbs.... as I was lying in the dirt yesterday next to my downed T7 I thought to myself. I don't feel any pain(yet). I can move my arms and legs. This is dang fun I feel like a teenager again. This 500l lb lead sled will be on Craigslist tonight.

[@nhbjhbbhbhgvb]

How does this bike compare to the beta 390? Seems like you would love the 390 too!

[@hazmatt81]

I ride a ‘17 Husky FE350...my cousin had the ‘16 and convinced me to get one. I’ve ridden motorcycles and quads forever but never owned one. Only motorcycles I ever purchased was my first (2002 Honda CBR600 F4i) then during the trend a 2003 Honda XR50 which I built up and prob spent the amount of the cost of a 450 motorcross bike. Ha ha sold the CBR a few years later and still have the 50 to this day. Always rode friends’ quads and dirtbikes but until last year never owned one myself. Wanted one forever but for whatever reason never bought one. But gladly to say I’m now a proud owner of a dual sport bike that for me is perfect for me! Love being able to just open the garage door and go ride. Glad I went with the plated bike as opposed to a track bike.

[@americandirtrider7662]

Between the 16 and 17 FE350, what are your thoughts?

[@hazmatt81]

I can’t really speak to the differences between the ‘16 vs ‘17. From reading a few snippets here and there the ‘17 was completely redesigned. Motor, electronics and suspension. And even with major differences my riding ability wouldn’t really be able to notice them anyways. I know after 2015 Husqvarna was bought out by KTM. And since then parts are now more readily available and the reliability has bumped up considerably. Anyways, don’t think I answered your question but I didn’t want to leave ya hangin’! Ha ha

[@americandirtrider7662]

Hah well I appreciate the try. I was just curious if you can feel the difference in geometry or power delivery. And I know the 16s came with 4CS forks, but I don't know if the 17 has Xplor 48s or still 4CS. Anyway, thanks for the reply.

i am afraid that this better KTM is not a Dual Sport in the classic point of view. Nobody over here use this kind of bikes seriously as street bikes...

[@MarkSpencerAZ]

That was a great review sir! I love the twist, coming back to the DRZ and it's ability to keep up with the modern, and pricey Husqvarna! I'm still riding the 1984 XR350R I purchased new in Phoenix in 1984 at the tire old age of 21 years old! Actually my son rides her more now, and I'm riding the 2004 XR400R I picked up and restored. My wife's 2013 xt250 has spoiled me though, I love that magic button. Just picked up a, new to me, 2021 KLX300 I'm fragmented camo. I want to like it as much as my old XR's, but the jury will be out until I get it tuned for me, the proper tires, etc. FYI, we're supposed to be in your neck of the woods this month, but with all the snow and bad weather we stayed in Arizona. This turned out to be good though since it was way out in the middle of nowhere in Mohave county where I found the KLX for sale while on our journey to Buckskin Mountain State Park down along the Colorado.

[@GregHuston]

I have one as well. A 2018. I've had a few small quality issues with it, but overall I'm pretty happy. My old WR250 is heavier of course, but it is much smoother on the highway. I won't ride the Beta more than a 20-50 miles on the tarmac. It's much happier off road.

I would love to see your opinion on the Suzuki dr 350. I use one for dual sport riding, i have gearing set up to more pull, 2 gear full throttle and front wheel is in the air. To me I feel it's the best dual sport there is. Very capable on off-road riding, you can go on more technical stuff with it. I do let's say, soft enduro, and she a little to heavy for the job, but she goes anyway. On the other end, price for acquiring one is healthy and parts are easy to find. The 350 engine displacement for me is the best for dual sport... After that is just adapting for the specific use you want to give her. I you can, give a go in a good dr 350. I would love the see your thoughts about it. Thanks, all the way from Portugal 🇵🇹. Cheers

[@rideaboutadv3730]

I have around 5000miles on mine now ( trouble free ) and I ride it like I stool it ! . Look at my Utube reviews and update on the bike ( nothing as good as your channel but I'm not very techo) But I do get the point across about how good the SWM SuperDual is. Regards Paul.

Great bike, but I wouldn’t really call it a dual sport, maybe a racing dual sport, but or an enduro, because of the maintenance. 15 hours oil and filter change, 30 hours valve check and 135 hours piston change and a lot of other engine work. Great bike if you have the time an money for maintenance! I’ll stick to my 2000 drz400s :-). Enjoyed the review, though!

[@brettkovak6344]

Eduard Avas just picked up my XR400! I’m good with that.....

[@Kaegis]

I love it drz400E model. If you do the 3x3 mod with JD jet kit, with skilled rider and some decent gym fitness you can really push that bike pretty damn hard. Surely, it will wear you down and quicker but the DRZ really is so capable and strong. Do you have a review on the Husaberg FE570?

[@rorykalka3917]

Heads up for your mate with the FE350 I changed the diaphragm in my FE 501 brake cylinder and now breaks much better the manufacturer had a bad batch Husqvarna paid for the fix

[@rocnktm]

Great video! Nice riding! What kind of drone did you use? Excellent footage!👍 What brand name is that gas tank? 270 miles? Keep up the great work!

[@jimperry4420]

And the Drz shows it’s awesomeness again.......

[@dannymcc16]

Great review. I have not ridden a husky fe350 but I'm sure it's amazing. I would be scared to at the same time because I would surely want one. For what I do, my drz is amazing.

I enjoyed your video. Definitely won't say the word... But that bike looks awesome.

[@joeylindblom9421]

I like how you included the actual way to say HUSQVARNA, someone from Husqvarna in real life, Like myself. Go crazy with the pronunciation. I moved to america a few years ago. Most people think its a made up name. It's literally a city. Big industrial city that sadly in the shadow of a bigger brother near by. Jönköping. Husqvarna is many things, Motorcycles, sowing machines, weed wackers and chainsaws. And even a Hockey team. :D

[@Nostrathomas85]

everyone i know pronounced it huska varna for so long that its ingrained in my head.

[@WADZUP]

Great review Ty as you may have noticed I have the fe501 which is also an intoxicating Beast. I love your comment about the meatballs so utterly random where do you come up with this stuff?

I rode an xr 650r from Arizona to Washington state inside of 4 days. Too easy. No blinkers. All stock except a seat and exhaust. Kept reminding myself people would have to ride horses.....ive got the best horse out there.

I find this is often a problem with really high end machines...the mere mortals can only stand in awe of them, but never get to use them anywhere near their full potential...I have a similar problem with my KTM street bike...

[@haydenw6585]

Good honest review

[@milhollandandrew]

I’m having trouble deciding between a WRR, FE350, or a ktm EXC. I use to ride an xt250 when I was 18, about 10 years ago before it was stolen, and have been borrowing a family members KLR on and off for the last decade. Most of my riding is paved back roads as well as logging roads, but would like to learn some trail riding too. I would also choose to commute on the bike June through mid September. Opinions?

[@DKINTHEWILD]

Yup I luv my drz for the same reason for the price of one euro queen I bought 3 drz's for me and the boys and a quad for mamma

[@MarkSpencerAZ]

I can relate to what you say Tyler about the front brake. My wife's FE350S seems to be boolene, all or nothing and nothing between. It caused her to take a spill yesterday in an area where there was no reason to take a spill. She was slowing down from maybe 25 mph on a gravel road when suddenly the front wheel just locked and down she went. I'm wondering if anyone out there has a fix for this? Is this just a characteristic of the magura brakes? My KTM 500 EXCF is just as smooth as can be and linear through the whole breaking process on the front wheel.

[@HeddleTown]

Great little review buddy and it is a good bike for sure but it's near impossible to find the perfect dual sport for an individual person but my 690 comes close for me! :D

[@hermanleeuwner5295]

690 rider here, agree 110%

[@JRockettAudio]

Try the 701 Enduro....it is excellent on and off the road

[@premixpeter1972]

Bottom line is that while they're excellent bikes, the MAJORITY of riders would be better suited with a cheaper, more reliable, more forgiving, and more versatile Japanese enduro IE KLR, WR, DRZ, KDX, KLX, etc. Especially in comparison to a 10 thousand dollar Eurobike. Money can't buy experience/skill! Great vid as always!

[@whitedrguy6503]

Pity the Husky is a high maintenance off road enduro race bike not a dual sport, it is a blue and white KTM. It gets a little confusing now with people calling enduro bikes dual sports and big litre plus touring bikes adventure bikes.

[@garthlundquist8316]

Have you owned one? I have bought 4 and found them to be high quality. No mechanical issues in over 16,000 miles of use. Just changed oil, filters, tires, chain, etc. These bikes are solid and dependable but offer a much higher level of dynamic performance.

[@timsherwood7553]

@@garthlundquist8316 I see the refrain above repeated all over, and I don't quite get it either. My '04 ktm 2-smoke is great, no problems. The only work I've done is basic maintenance that was due when it was sold to me.

[@OnlyKaerius]

The Africa Twin is apparently great off-road despite being a somewhat heavy liter bike. I guess that's as close to the do-everything unicorn as we'll likely get anytime soon. Meanwhile I'm struggling to find a decent small road legal dual sport here as my winter bike(honestly anything lightweight, with a seat height under 31 inches and a soft suspension, that can do 60 would do, but they're rare as hens teeth unless I want to buy brand new, and even then the models I want seem to be unavailable in europe).

[@garthlundquist8316]

I have an Africa Twin also. It is far too heavy to trail ride with but does well on dirt roads and tarmac. The new Ktm 790 will be the unicorn bike for the serious rider.

[@OnlyKaerius]

@@garthlundquist8316 What will it do that makes it in any way better for dual use than say a DR 650, or KTM 690/Husqvarna 701? It's expected to be heavier than an MT07.

[@lackingpoint]

So how does the FE350 stack up against the also street legal Beta 390RRS?
