Quick Ride: Husaberg FE450E

Everymans exotic?

I have always considered Husaberg motorcycles to be on the "exotic" bike list.
After all, the blue-and-yellow bikes fit that description so well with their
unusual appearance, not to mention the infrequency of spotting one on the
trail or track. Their exotic aura is proven even more by all the questions we
get about the bikes from complete strangers. Despite all this, when it comes
to riding, the new FE450E is completely ordinary. Which is a very good thing.

Sure, a 'Berg is not mainstream like a Japanese enduro bike, but it's not
out in left field anymore, either. In fact, this 450E works on par with the
rest of the 450 enduros, no matter their country of origin.

Surprisingly, my first jaunt on the 450E had me feeling more at home than on
most bikes I have recently ridden. Ergonomics were excellent for my 5-foot-11
frame. The 450E also felt like a solid motorcycle, with no funny noises or
weird vibrations that are sometimes found on other exotic bikes. Lending an
even more polished feel was perfect carburetion, and the fact that during my
entire 17 hours of saddle time I never put a wrench on the bike. Try that with
a real exotic.

This spot-on performance has a lot to do with where the 450E is made: inside
the KTM factory. Although Husaberg wants to be known as a separate company,
the 'Berg shares approximately 40 percent of its parts with a KTM. Even some
of the extra-cool pieces the orange bikes are known for are included, such as
the powerful Brembo brakes and Magura hydraulic clutch.


Despite the parts sharing, the 450E has a lot of its own character. Engine,
frame and bodywork are completely different. The kickstarter, for example, is
on the left side. But with the standard electric start, we never had to worry
about kicking it. The right-side chain drive and left-side exhaust are also
opposite from the norm. The exhaust system also differs in another way: There
are no heat shields, so your gear and boot melt into goo all over the pipe.
Bad for the pipe, bad for the gear.

Otherwise, the 450E is pretty well polished. Suspension is made up of
KTM-familiar WP pieces, with tuning weighted strongly toward gnarly off-road
work. Handling is superb on tight trails, and the bike feels agile and
well-balanced. But the price for this low-speed agility is evident on fast
whoop-de-doos and big hits, where the suspension is soft and unforgiving.
Headshake trouble on one fast dirt road had me begging for a steering damper.

Power delivery suits the tight-trail character, as the 449cc dohc Single is
tuned on the mellow side. Bottom-end response is great, with tractable,
easy-to-manage torque. This mellow character remains through the rev range and
gives the bike a deceptively slow feel.

Overall, the FE450Eespecially with its $7899 MSRPis an excellent alternative
to the 450 Thumper norm, particularly for a rider looking for a bike that
excels in tight, Eastern-style enduro conditions. Is there such thing as a
mainstream exotic?
