The 2024 Husqvarna FC 450 defines current standards in motocross, being a machine designed to dominate the premier class by delivering massive power in a controllable manner. The 2024 model has been refined to offer unwavering high-speed stability without sacrificing the agility needed on technical track sections, making it the ideal choice for riders who demand consistent performance at the highest level.
Powertrain and Technology: At the heart of this model is the 450cc SOHC engine, designed to be compact and to centralize mass within the chassis. It develops over 60 hp, managed through an ultra-advanced Engine Management System (EMS). Electronic features include Quickshifter (for clutchless upshifts), Launch Control for an explosive start, and selectable Traction Control. The handlebar map switch allows the rider to alternate between linear and aggressive power delivery, adapting instantly to track conditions.
Control and Stability: The laser-cut chromium-molybdenum steel frame provides exceptional feedback, tuned to absorb the energy of large impacts. The WP XACT front suspension with AER technology and the WP XACT rear shock with a linkage system ensure top-tier directional stability and constant traction on corner exits. Together with the hybrid aluminum and polyamide subframe, the motorcycle offers a calculated rigidity that minimizes rider fatigue during long motos.
Components and Ergonomics: The FC 450 features modern ergonomics with narrow contact surfaces that allow for fluid movement. Brembo braking and hydraulic clutch systems offer world-class modulation and stopping power. High-strength D.I.D rims and ProTaper handlebars highlight the build quality. The 2024 Husqvarna FC 450 is a highly efficient racing machine, ready to deliver top performance from the very first outing on the track.
