2001 Husaberg FE400E

mtre23 · Jul 26, 2005

Hi,
I am really interested in this model. There is one at a local dealership, where I live. They have had it for sale at $4500, for a long time. I have checked it out a couple of times but always thought the price was too high.

Anyway they have now asked me to make them an offer.
My question to you guys is how would $3300 sound,(bike is used, but mint) also, is this a great bike, and how is reliability?
Any feedback would be appreciated. I came across this site looking for a review of this model.
I should add I would just use it for lite dirt riding, and some on road (because it is street legal) riding. Nothing hardcore.
Thanks
Casey

What will you be doing with the bike? Race, trail ride, street etc.

How important is the electric start feature to you?

Can you work on a four stroke motor?

What other bikes have you owned?

Is your dealer generally helpful?

Friend of mine has one, he is the 2nd owner. Between him and the previous owner the bike has done many hours without a problem. I don't know much about the previous owner but currently maintenance isn't at it's best level so to say. When he first got it, it was ridden twice a week sometimes more. And only the necessary things were done, putting gas in and a new filter when it is absolutely necessary. Oil changes also every now and then.
To be honest I was surprised the engine doesn't give up by now. So in short, I think a 400 with GOOD maintenance should be ok. (considering what I have seen on a not so good maintained one :wink: )
