The FE 501 incorporates the latest technology and high-quality components, ensuring exceptional performance. Advanced electronics allow taming the raw power of the engine, offering controllable and broad power delivery

Powerful and Lightweight Engine

The heart of the FE 501 is a 4-stroke engine weighing just 29.5 kg and producing an impressive 64 hp. This powerplant benefits from advanced engineering techniques to maximize performance, positioned in the frame to optimize the chassis’ anti-squat behavior and centralize mass.

Technical Innovations

The SOHC cylinder head is extremely compact and lightweight, with the camshaft positioned as close as possible to the center of gravity. The aluminum cylinder has a bore of 95 mm and a stroke of 72 mm, housing a forged CP bridged-box type piston with anodized annular grooves for increased durability.

Balanced Chassis and Suspension

The perfectly balanced chassis and WP XACT suspension complement the bike’s exceptional maneuverability. The engine shaft arrangement has been carefully designed to centralize rotating masses at the ideal center of gravity.

Optimized Intake and Exhaust Systems

The FE 501 is equipped with a 42 mm Keihin throttle body, optimized for precise response. The exhaust system, manufactured in two pieces, allows for easy maintenance and a compact silencer without compromising sound levels.

Aesthetics and Heritage

The bike features functional bodywork with new graphics inspired by the brand’s Swedish heritage, reinforcing its premium identity in the enduro segment.

With these updates, the Husqvarna FE 501 promises to remain a benchmark in the world of enduro, combining power, technology, and heritage in a truly exceptional machine.
