Introducing the 2012 Husqvarna TE310, a finely crafted enduro motorcycle that blends advanced technology with rugged performance, designed for riders who crave adventure off the beaten path. Priced at an accessible US$ 8,199, the TE310 stands as an enticing option for both seasoned trailblazers and those looking to dip their toes into the exhilarating world of off-road riding. Built with Husqvarna's storied heritage in mind, this model exemplifies the brand's commitment to precision engineering and spirited performance, making it a top choice for enthusiasts who demand reliability and agility in challenging terrains. At the heart of the TE310 lies a powerful 302.44cc single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. With a robust compression ratio of 13.0:1 and an efficient Mikuni Digital Fuel Injection system, the engine delivers a responsive throttle and spirited acceleration, allowing riders to tackle steep inclines and rugged landscapes with ease. The 6-speed gearbox, paired with a wet, multi-plate hydraulic clutch, ensures seamless gear transitions, providing the rider with precise control and confidence on the trail. Weighing in at a mere 112 kg (247 lbs), the TE310 offers a remarkable power-to-weight ratio, enhancing its agility and maneuverability during spirited rides. The TE310 is equipped with an impressive array of features that cater to the demands of off-road riding. Its chromoly single-tube frame, utilizing rounded-rectangle, elliptical tubing, boasts exceptional strength and durability, ensuring the bike can withstand the rigors of tough terrain. The 48mm Kayaba USD front forks and Kayaba Progressive ‘Soft Damp’ rear shock provide an impressive suspension travel of 300 mm (11.8 inches) and 295 mm (11.6 inches) respectively, allowing for superior handling and comfort over obstacles. With a ground clearance of 290 mm (11.4 inches), riders can confidently navigate rocky trails and uneven surfaces, while the option of both electric and kick start ensures reliability in every situation. **
