2011 Husqvarna TE310

2011 Husqvarna TE310
The Husqvarna TE310 Enduro starts life as a 250cc, with the 4-stroke engine's bore and stroke increased to 82 X 57.3mm, which punches out displacement to 302.44cc. Engine is fuel-injected, fed by a 45mm Mikuni throttle body. The TE310 has shed 6 kg (about 12 pounds) over its previous version. Other than the engine mods, the 310 shares features with its little brother, the Husqvarna TE250, such as a reinforced frame, Grimeca wheel hubs, 48mm Kayaba forks and a Sachs shock.

Gas tank capacity was increased to 8.5 litres in order to better cope with the demands of long enduro loops and is aided by a new fuel pump that draws fuel more efficiently.

The new Husqvarna TE310 boasts the lightest engine in the 250 cc 4-stroke category (22 kg), boosted to 302.44 cc, thanks to an increase in bore and stroke, now 82 X 57.3 mm.

The 2011 Husqvarna TE310 now features a bored and stroked version of the super compact, super light 250cc Husqvarna engine, which Husky claims puts out “significantly higher torque and power” than last year’s TE310. Could the TE310 be the perfect amatuer, off-road play bike?
