Dirt Bike Magazine tests the MXrevival built Husqvarna TE500 two stroke with fuel injection. This is the ultimate build for that guy that wants more power on the trail or in the desert. This is the new generation platform Husqvarna with a BRC 500 slammed into the frame. How does the bike feel on the trail? Was the suspension any good? Is a 500cc two stroke necessary for offroad? What did we really think of the bike? All those questions are answered in this video by editor Mark Tilley.

I literally just got into looking at motorcycles last week. Looked at supersport bikes at first, but being outdoorsy, they two stroke things put me down the rabbit hole of these crazy 500 two stroke dirtbikes…THEYRE SO SICK. Stayed up all night the past couple days researching how a two stroke engine works and the different types of fuel mixtures, etc. I’m now addicted and want my own two stroke…
Get you an aluminum frame yz250 or honda cr250 you cant go wrong with those all years were good
Bro! You've never rode uh Dirt Bike before and want to get a 500 2smoker????????? Squid, get a bike you can learn on first. You're gunna WEED yourself on such a high level bike. You'll have 100 times more fun on a 125, banging through all the gears and learning how to ride. With so much reciprocating mass on the Big Boy Bikes, you'll NEVER be able to ride that bike to its true potential. 🤦♂️🤘
A 500cc two stroke is a LOT of bike. As Ali said, get an aluminum-frame YZ250 or CR250 if you have experience. If not, a 125 will give you all you want/need for a while. Two-strokes are a different animal. Much more fun and rewarding than a 4-Stroke, IMO. Much easier to work on, as well.
I don't see why KTM doesn't offer one of these under at lest one of the three brands, people would buy them like crazy.
Just be glad they're not only still around to provide two strokes to the NA market and also actually putting R&D into two strokes.
I would buy one in advance.
Ya bring back the 500
Because KTM are a politically correct liberal company
Three letters: EPA. Ever wonder why there's red locktite on the throttle bodies of the TPIs? They don't want us messing with the air fuel ratio. For a 500, i doubt it's possible to meet the liberal no fun requirements.
There's some $$$$$ in that bike!
Dirt Bike, you guys are still the best! A couple quick things... First, the pipe maker, Hygge, is pronounced either "Hoo Guh" or "Hyoo Guh," depending on who you ask. It's a Scandanavian word meaning "A Cozy Quality." Second, while the TPI is cool, BRC offers a conversion kit to make it TBI, which is a bit of an upgrade. I'm a little surprised Charles (MX Revival) didn't upgrade to it.
What a beauty
Dang this thing sounds sweet!
More on this bike please
I have an 87 Husqvarna WR430 and that thing is awsome on the trails. If you want to do a comparison to an old school big bore Husqvarna two stroke
Nice, I had a WR 360. Decomp head for easy starting.
I don’t know why Honda who dominated easy on the 2 strokes wouldn’t offer the CR125 & CR250. If they came out with those bikes it would change the sport again. There would be at least a year waiting list. Why would they even build a 4 stroke to race motocross because they have less power and so many more moving parts which allows them to break down so much sooner? It’s not to sell parts because most of the average people won’t buy them now due to the troubles with them
Nice job, guys.
Thanks guys!
500cc TPI! Im in.
Man, I can never get over how the TBI/TPI bikes sound, they sound like they have a constant knock or something. And I've notices the BRC 500's dont have the same roar as the CR and KX500's
I used to ride a Honda cr480, would love to ride this bike
I had a 1983 model.
"If you think a 300 is a little bit too much for you..." LOL That statement resonates with all us weenies out there that hold on for dear life while our 65cc bike tries to wheelie! 🤣
Market for sure needs 500cc. two strokes today.
Braaaap!!❤️
Slick!
love me a nice Husky...
The true hero will be the one that gets 2 strikes racing pro again. We should have a 125,250 and maybe a 500 class and the 4 strikes can race but they have to race in the correct cc class and not race down a class. If they loose then to bad but we all know that’s what will happen. With today’s technology and a 2 stroke motor there is just no chance the 4 strokes can win. This battle is with the AMA and manufacturers and possibly others. This is not and EPA issue at all. It can’t be because they still sell and race 2 strokes. The reason they don’t sell the 2 strokes is because they have to race up a class. A 2 stroke 250 has to race the 450 class which is just beyond stupid and not sure who ever got together on this. None of this will happen until the riders as well as fans join together and get organized to change this back. Motocross has incredible history and these people changed it and they are not selling more bikes. The bikes are now out of reach in price for most kids and racers. This sport came from a blue collar background and the best riders are not even out there now. Jett is by far the best yet he’s a skinny little kid where as racers should be very muscular. It also takes a bit more talent to ride the 2 strokes which is a huge part of motocross. Anyway for those that know UA-cam and maybe able to make videos on getting the sport back the we all love maybe you can do something. It’s also about finding out who was behind all this and getting them fired and change the sport back to what we had. This is the only way to sell bikes and fill the seats with fans. The 4 strokes are the same as a zero turn mower engine so these kids all grew up around these and it’s nothing fascinating to hear like the 2 strokes. What happened to the sport is horrible
That thing is pure grunt
I got a 2017 Husqvarna Fe501 street legal with a 1994 cr500 engine. The bike was built by MRE. Its actually for sale too!
Did the frame have to be modified to fit the engine?
@@D73GT yes extensively.
I had a husky 500xc and a cr 500. True desert racers but it wasnt till the advent of the steering stabelizer which made it more rideable and not too twitchy. It saved my life so many times. Don't race a 500 without one
Trail building just got a whole lot easier!
Didn't you guys ride this like over a month ago?
❤ ✌🏻 stroke
I was hoping this was a tbi that would be sick
At 11:56 it sounds like an old CVT transmission. By that I mean that clutch is slipping on that straightway - noticeable. Awesome build, however! 👍👍
Agree.
That's the Rukluse auto clutch. They must have a lighter set of springs which doesn't allow for it to engage right away; it allows it to slip some.
Impressive. My 300 2t for now is enough.
Interesting & fun to watch, just ignore the whiners
ahahahah Thank You for this!
👍👍👊
Would make a good snow bike with a large fuel tank.
Very intriguing 🤔 sucks at todays price points but for a 98 to 06 drop this would have rewrote some things i mean every sport/hobby has to 1st of all keep it interesting 👍 😅 hope the we need retro thoughts keep coming .... cuz the 2 stroke is being squeezed out everywhere but 3rd world....😢
TBI not TPI if this is next generation 23+ if. Its a 22 or later, that's a fail. Atmospheric sensors routinely fail and blow engines. 8hrs on a TE250 21 we put 4 sensors on the bike. Sold it asap why it was still worth anything.
What is top speed?
Lol nice
Hinsh pipe:)
Price in oz
Not a bad way to spend 30K?! 😮
Only time ive seen someone use carbon fiber to add weight. Swing arm protector. lol!
Long live the CR500!
@216lbs
Auto clutch eek
Thought this would be the coolest bike and then I realized it isn't really a Husq.
Looks like a 35k bike jesus
What a cool bike, but couldn’t watch due to the terrible wheel colors. My lord guys!
The spokes are truly awful lol.
Colored spokes prevent you from appreciating the rest of the build?…. lol..
Cool build but it looks like a blind man picked decals and exhaust 😅
and wheels, don't forget about those
i have to say, the bikes not ugly. but i rather have a sh!tty looking bike thats fast and rides easy, than a good-looking bike i can't ride fast.
Motard...
Carbon fiber swingarm doesn't seem like a very good idea for longevity.
HO HUM...... ANOTHER KITTED 300....... SNOOZING NOW......
Very few are making new big bore 2-smokers anymore..
Cool bike but nothing more than a look at me I gots lots of money bike. Regular 300 would eat it up on those type trails. Still incredible engineering.
@@brettmenzie982 250 even more.
and a TE is no TX.
