Husqvarna Motorcycles have announced the first of their 2022 off-road motorcycle line-up, the new Motocross and Cross-Country models.

Along with a new twist in the “Swedish-inspired” dark blue and white colour scheme, the FC/TC and FX/TX two-stroke and four-stroke range will each now feature a Brembo hydraulic clutch system, a “high-performance component thoroughly race-tested to guarantee even wear, near maintenance-free operation and perfect action in all conditions”.

That means a change to the long-standing Magura systems on the Husqvarna off-road models, matching the KTM equivalent machines.

Behind that switch, the 2022 models are largely unchanged which means the same line-up of two-stroke machines beginning with the TC 125 and TC 250 and moving up to the TX 300i with the fuel injection system in the 300cc powerplant.

The four-stroke stable features the FC 250, FC 350 and FC 450 plus the FX 350 and FX 450 machines in the off-road or dual-sport range. For 2022 the four-stroke engine on all models has a new friction bearing on the counter-balancer shaft which Husqvarna say increases durability of the high-revving engines.

The MX and XC models share the same basic platform but the Cross-Country range features larger capacity fuel tanks, side stands and 21/18-inch D.I.D DirtStar wheels fitted with Dunlop Geomax AT81 tyres.
