First Look: Billy Bolt’s 2025 Factory Husqvarna TE300 Hard Enduro Race Bike
First look at Billy Bolt’s Husqvarna Factory Racing TE300 Pro Bike prepped and ready for the 2025 Hard Enduro World Championship season.
Pro Bike gallery number two this week on Enduro21 as Husqvarna Factory Racing reveal the TE300 two-stroke race bike Billy Bolt will jockey in the world championship.
The season kicks off this weekend, May 10–11 in Wales, at the Valleys Hard Enduro — a round Bolt can call a home race.
It’s a venue where Billy has already had success this year already with victory at the Valleys Extreme (like the Valleys Hard Enduro, only colder and usually wetter), but this weekend will be the first time the SuperEnduro World Champion faces off against Mani Lettenbichler at the venue.
Along with the rest of the HEWC Pro riders, the 2025 HEWC series looks set to be a good one, despite the last-minute arrival of new promoters and a shuffled championship calendar.
The 2025 FIM Hard Enduro World Championship kicks off at the Valleys this weekend, then heads to the USA for Silver Kings in June, Abestone in Italy (TBC), Hixpania in Spain, Sea to Sky in Turkey, GetzenRodeo in late October, and finally the Roof of Africa in Lesotho in November.
Billy is also down to race the big two: Red Bull Erzbergrodeo and Red Bull Romaniacs, which once again stand alone as independent extreme races.
“The last 12 months have been a bit of a rollercoaster!” says Billy. “From having knee surgery and taking nearly seven months off the bike, to then making it back for the final two rounds of the championship and winning Hixpania to end the season, there were a lot of ups and downs.
“The SuperEnduro season over winter went really well as I went into it feeling back to full fitness and ended up claiming my fifth consecutive title.
“I haven’t had an uninterrupted hard enduro season for a few years, but I’m feeling really confident heading into the series this year. I’ve spent some time adjusting to not only riding a two-stroke again but also preparing for significantly longer days on the bike. The team have worked super hard over the past few months, so I can’t wait to get going this weekend!”
