2011 Husqvarna TE511 Review


HUSQVARNA TE511: A NEW

The design of the new 449/511 series outperforms other models off-road and immediately stands out for its looks, layout and exclusive technology.

Design and

The line is entirely new: slim, elegant and refined. The panel takes place one piece on the side where traditionally the fuel tank would be all the way back to the rear wing, so the rider free and unhindered movement. There is no chance of snagging boots or pants on the side panels with this design.

In addition to the aesthetic and ergonomic aspects, including the new design makes maintenance easier than the air filter, rear shock and throttle body are all easily accessible. The head of long, extending from the rear wing of the steering head, offers completely free longitudinal movement.

MASSES AND CENTER OF GRAVITY

The idea behind the TE 511 is "mass centralization" -. To keep the weight on the bike concentrated as close to the center of gravity and chassis design that fits perfectly to the demands of competitive endurance races This solution, which Husqvarna calls CTS (Coaxial Traction System) eliminates the variation in the length of the chain during rear suspension movement, minimizing the effect of the last race on the handling of bikes. This solution allows an arm longer swing, while retaining a wheelbase similar to our competitors offer better traction, which means for the Enduro tangible benefits.

The chassis design allows the modern DOHC engine to be mounted near the center of the bike, while tilting the cylinder forward also allows a process of making long and straight air at the same time as keeping the center of gravity as low as possible.

Again, continuing the theme of mass centralization, the two-piece design of the fuel tank provides a total of 8.5 liters in just two mounted pump body and a liter of 6.5 liters in the seat main tank. The layout of the tank under the seat allows the air filter box to be placed in a protected position and fluidodynamically favorable to the engine with the air intake is the real height of the steering column, in an elevated place and protected to minimize the contribution of dust or water.

Reference shows

TE 511 is equipped with advanced dual-cam 4-valve engine, which significantly improved the experience with the Husqvarna off-road racing for many years.

The train for both Enduro and MX versions have been completely changed Enduro now uses a 6-speed gearbox and ratios have been modified in the light of experience and Salminen TARKKALA races. The ignition timing has been optimized with cards that are specific to two different capacities and exhaust systems.

The clutch is hydraulic, which provides a coherent and progressive soft withgreater also under pressure.

HANDLING AND PERFORMANCE

Perimeter chassis design is tubular high-strength steel. The geometry of the rear suspension is a revolutionary new clutch fitted on top of the alloy swingarm.

This solution offers many benefits: increased ground clearance, improves reliability by reducing the overall exposure of the components and easy maintenance. But there is much more dynamic, taking advantage of the dual support tube steel frame, high strength, the roughness of the earth is absorbed more gradually, reducing the pressure on the driver.

The advantages of the jump is also a remarkable effect on the rear wheel back is significantly reduced, and the softness of the suspension is particularly noticeable on a lot rougher and more difficult.

Coaxial Drive System

An improvement in the actual area of ​​chassis design and exclusive range of TE / TC 449 / 511 is the RTC, the coaxial drive system. The advantages of CTS compared to traditional systems are huge. During the suspension movement and the race, the chain is not subject to any change in length. The chain tension remains constant regardless of the position of the rocker, while the chain and sprockets benefit from reduced wear. A significant positive effect on driving characteristics is the marked reduction in the incidence of alternating load on the transmission.

More generally, the values ​​obtained for the approval of the CTS have a much more uniform trend in all conditions, which ridability and stability of the bike.

Premium Ingredients

The TE is equipped with the most advanced new components in the Off Road. The front brake is a Brembo floating calipers and 260 mm wave rotor, while the rear brake system consists of a floating caliper operating on a 240 mm rotor.

The suspension is entrusted in its entirety experts Kayaba, with 48 mm forks, adjustable rebound and compression, and Kayaba rear shock absorber designed specifically for use with optimized settings for enduro co-Racing Team.

New Husqvarna TE 511: the perfect combination of elements to win every challenge.

2012 Husqvarna 900R Nuda Review

 
This new model will have more than 100 horses will be very easy to handle thanks to its lightness and linear, the fluid nature of the engine blowing strong and controlled in action at the touch of the accelerator. The components are high quality too, as our bikes racing Husqvarna: Sachs fork, Ă–hlins shock (both fully adjustable), Brembo Racing brakes, and many little details in carbon fiber, sport exhaust system with a exhaust valve, and more. All this comes with an aesthetic look and style sexy, seductive and typically Italian.

The Naked Truth Naked 900 R

Supermoto factory rider Mauno Hermunen is one of the lucky few in the world have experimented with Husqvarna stunning new naked 900 R. It sits astride the sleek, angular momentum is home to Milan, Husqvarna wants to tell the world how exciting brand in the first Street Bike. Finnish 23-year-old tried a motorcycle in France - with the exception of official tester, he is the only driver who has had the opportunity to test him. Mauno statement is simple: "it's just a really cool bike."

 
This "cool bike" harmoniously combines the soul humorous Husqvarna brand and style effortlessly with the advanced technology of BMW. The two motorcycle makers cooperation of each item in accordance nuda and Mauno, is evidence of horse riding.
 
 "First of all, it handles brilliantly," he says enthusiastically. "It's so easy that the engine is excellent and the show is amazing, if there are fast corners it takes just the -. The bike goes where I want to take it. "

He says one of the most interesting things is that the bike is a fun, sporty. "It 'important that the wheel is fun that could easily pull the show and stoppies Naked 900R, it was really great at this point of view, but obviously depends on the driver -.. Some people want to drive in a different way, and is as good as ride on a regular basis is made for people. who want to have fun though! "

 
Despite the fun factor, is a naked bike, which is serious. Its 900cc engine capacity of more than 100 horsepower and 100 Nm of torque, but its dry weight is less than 175 kg, ensures perfect power to weight ratio. High quality components are the dimensions of the building - is fully adjustable? Hlins rear suspension, and the entire fork and Sachs adjustable one-piece radially mounted four-piston Brembo front brakes and a trick exhaust system with carbon components.

The core nuda is a modified version of the BMW F 800 R 800cc parallel twin-cylinder engine. The engine was upgraded to a capacity of 900cc and many internal components have been modified to improve power, performance and torque curve. The result is a character from the typical aggressive race - a genuine Husqvarna machine.

 
If Mauno, which currently manages the Husqvarna SMR449 and there are only two points away from the tip of Supermoto Championship investments, motorcycle design is a stunning climax staff. "For me, one of the main problems of style," he says.

"Design is so typically Italian, a motorcycle is very nice - there is nothing that looks like it is so strong, it looks really dynamic and in my eyes just could not look better. ".

 
Championship contender has to compete because he was a child, the first motocross, supermoto, after completing an impressive 15-year career. He's hungry to be world champion and the remaining three races this season and only the small difference between him and the director, the title is within reach. His ability to get the best Husqvarna motorcycles, is believed to be the perfect person to put 900 Naked R through its paces.

 
Mauno, who spends hours each week of training in their revolutionary says SMR449 street bike is the perfect balance between performance, technology and style - the three key elements in its creation. "Having had the opportunity to be among the first to ride a bicycle, which is nice to know its power delivery so smooth is -. But with a chassis and a BMW engine and the technology behind the brand mark , no wonder. not just look good sound good, and it feels good, it's a reliable bike too. And to make matters worse, Italian design has the tail. What really is the perfect combination of performance, technology and style. "
