HUSQVARNA FE350<br />

the idea and so I placed an order for<br />

a new 2020 FE350 this past week. I’m<br />

loving the current 2017-19 bike so much<br />

that I did not want to replace it with two<br />

new 2020 bikes sight unseen. I know<br />

there are a few changes due on the 2020<br />

bike but I’m going to wait and see what<br />

I think of them before I make a further<br />

decision on the second bike.<br />

The take away point is that I am<br />

sticking with the FE350 as my primary<br />

choice of enduro machine. The motor<br />

is wonderful and as I have tinkered with<br />

it I have found a near perfect setup for<br />

me. It’s only taken a few years to find<br />

the right bike and then find the right<br />

set-up, but I couldn’t be happier. Riding<br />

is all about confidence and I am riding<br />

with more confidence now than I have<br />

since I was in my teens and it’s mainly<br />

down to the bike being so predictable,<br />

responsive and smooth.<br />

In my feature ‘In search of the perfect<br />

setup’ – set for <strong>RUST</strong> #43 – I provide<br />

some insights into my approach to<br />

setting up a race bike and what works<br />

for me and perhaps what may work for<br />

you.<br />
