RUST magazine: Rust#26
2018 HUSQVARNA TEs – shock headline: they’re fuel-injected! DAKAR REBOOT – yeah, we want to ride this one, please BON VOYAGE – Andy does a runner (or rather ‘did’) *** Of course Husky have fuel-injected their 250 & 300 two-strokes (there’d have been an outcry if they hadn’t). We sent RUST’s new apprentice along to see what it was like. Have we told you about him?! Also in this issue: the African Dakar experience, today, only like yesterday (you’ll see); and RTW day one – what’s that like? RUST, it’s the smart read. Hope you like it! Jon Bentman (Editor, RUST)

i still have to pick a winner, though. So i’ll make it personal. for me, the<br />
TE300i is the ultimate racer, with plenty of power and it feels so much<br />
more rideble than the old two-strokes i grew up with. i felt like i could<br />
ride it harder and without getting the old demon arm pump. Yeah, the<br />
one thing you will notice with both of these bikes is that they’re getting<br />
closer to four-strokes power wise – without the weight. incredibly,<br />
smooth and easy to ride is the new two-stroke way, which in some ways<br />
leaves me a little nostalgic for the raucous blip of the throttle as we know<br />
it on a carb’d two-stroke. This is what two-strokes will be about from<br />
here on. This is the future.
