Good day

As per the subject, I would like some advice

I'm a "decently" experienced weekend warrior who loves a good Enduro Ride every now and then.

Currently on a Yamaha WR450F '05 Model.

Although the Yammie has treated me well, I have a twitch in the arse to upgrade.

I'm looking at the Husky's...always wanted one.
Now I need to decide which one.

I was told the TE300 is awesome, but I'm concerned going from 4-stroke to 2-stroke..as I was always on 4-strokes. (since my 1982 Honda XR200R)

Or should I rather look at the FE350,450 or 501?

As my bike is quite old, I'm not sure how the new bikes will measure up in performance...I would assume that you will get the same amount of power from a 350 four-stroke than an almost 13year old 450 four-stroke.

One thing I do not want is less power, that I'm sure off..but I also don't need double than what I currently have it will be overkill for my skill & fitness..a little bit more would def. be welcome.

I would really appreciate your advice. And also, any "warnings" against HUSQVARNA in general or year/model to avoid...

Cheers
