Bike Breakdown of the 2020 Husqvarna FC 450

Today, Husqvarna invited the Swapmoto Live staff to join them at Milestone MX Park to take our first laps on the new 2020 FC 450. Based on the 2019.5 Rockstar Edition FC 450 that we are so very fond of, we were excited to try out the new machine. Unlike previous "special-edition-to-production" years, all of the features from the Rockstar Edition did not find their way onto the new standard model; most notably the new triple-cross hub and spoke design of the front wheel and the Akrapovic slip-on muffler. Still, several key refinements make the new 2020 model worth taking a look at, even if you are completely satisfied with your '19 bike.
