2025 Husqvarna FX 350

FRAME

For 2025, new engine mounts with cut-outs improve the chassis flex characteristics, reduce weight, and contribute to a confidence inspiring riding experience. The frame is revised by reducing and removing material around the steering head and shock mount, which lowers the weight of the frame by 300 g. Together, these revisions improve cornering and ensure unparalleled rider feedback, energy absorption, and straight-line stability. A premium metallic blue powder coating is applied to the frame with protectors offering superior protection, durability, and grip in all conditions.

Polyamide-reinforced aluminium subframe

Made from 60% polyamide and 40% aluminium, the two-piece subframe ensures exceptional strength and durability at an overall weight of just 3.9 lb (1.8 kg). The lower subframe spars and frame mounts are manufactured from cast aluminium for strength at the lowest possible weight. Injection-molded polyamide is used to construct the upper section of the subframe to enable specific flex characteristics.

Triple clamps

Working in unison with the frame design and suspension set-up, the CNC-machined triple clamps ensure precisely calculated geometry for increased stability. Handlebar flex can be customised with the handlebar clamp, which offers two mounting options - rubber-damped for less vibration, or fixed for enhanced front-end feedback. The upper triple clamp is stiffer to ensure a smoother fork action and plays a vital role in the perfect alignment of the front wheel for superior handling.

WP XACT front suspension

Rigorously tested by WP's research and development department, the 48 mm WP XACT closed cartridge spring forks fitted to the FX 350 provide exceptional comfort. For 2025, the settings are updated to suit the new frame and linkage revisions. Inside the forks, mid-valve pistons optimise oil flow and prevent foaming for consistent and predictable damping at all times. A hydrostop, active in the final 68 mm of travel, reduces the impact of harsh and high-speed landings for continued straight line stability and forward momentum. Both the compression and rebound settings can be quickly adjusted by hand using the easy access clickers.

WP XACT rear suspension

Inside the WP XACT rear shock is a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) optimised main piston for superior initial comfort and to provide strong hold-up in all conditions. Updated for 2025, the linkage features new, lower friction seals while a smaller diameter linkage bolt reduces weight. The standard rebound and high and low speed compression settings have been adapted to suit the new frame and can be easily adjusted by hand to create a personalised set-up.

Swingarm

The swingarm is manufactured using a die-cast production process for optimal rigidity. To optimise and match the flex characteristics of the chassis, a 22 mm rear axle is utilised. For 2025, the machining of the swingarm helps to improve the durability of the new chain slider.
