Husqvarna has pulled the covers off its 2026 motocross range. Small but meaningful improvements. Seven bikes make up the line-up, from the little TC 50 all the way to the FC 450.
Two-Strokes – TC 125 & TC 250
The TC 125 and TC 250 are back with throttle body injection, which Husky has been refining for a while now. If you’re used to jetting carbs or fiddling with oil ratios, that’s all history. The chassis, suspension, and bodywork haven’t changed much, but that’s not a bad thing. These are well-balanced bikes straight out the box.
Four-Strokes – FC 250 & FC 450
The FC 250 continues to be Husqvarna’s go-to for MX2-level performance, and it’s still a very polished package. Launch control, traction control and quickshifter it’s all still here. The FC 450 is largely the same story. No major engine changes, but if it ain’t broken…
Both bikes come with WP XACT suspension, which is predictable and easy to adjust; it comes in handy for riders who don’t have a full race truck at their disposal.
So what’s actually new? A few updates across the range:
- A proper threaded radiator cap replaces the old push-on style
- Fuel line protection has been improved
- The wiring harness on the 2-strokes has been rerouted for better durability
- Graphics get a refresh, with the usual Swedish minimalist vibe
None of this is earth-shattering, but it’s thoughtful stuff that shows Husqvarna is paying attention to long-term ownership rather than just spec-sheet bragging rights.
Youth Models – TC 50, 65 & 85
The real gains this year seem to be on the mini side. The TC 50 and TC 65 both get new WP forks with air cartridges and low-friction seals, which should make suspension setup easier for parents and tuners. The 65 also has an updated exhaust valve and a hydraulic clutch, which is pretty serious spec for a small bike. The TC 85 stays much the same and is still the most adjustable mini in its class.
Technical Highlights:
- Graphics that echo Husqvarna’s Swedish roots
- Durable construction: laser-cut gaskets, reinforced shafts.
- Maxxis MX-ST tyres on TC 85
- Ergonomic adaptability across models
- Formula-grade braking and pro-level components throughout.
If you’re expecting wild changes, you won’t find them here. “What you will find is a motocross range that’s quietly improved in the right places. The core of what makes these bikes good hasn’t changed, and for most riders, that’s probably a good thing. These bikes still come well-specced, and Husqvarna’s usual quality remains.”
