Danger of burns Some vehicle components become very hot when the vehicle is operated.
– Do not touch any parts such as the exhaust system, radiator, engine, shock absorber, or brake system before the vehicle
parts have cooled down.
– Let the vehicle parts cool down before you perform any work on the vehicle.
Only operate the vehicle when it is in perfect technical condition, in accordance with its intended use, and in a safe and environ-
mentally compatible manner.
The vehicle should only be used by trained persons. An appropriate driver’s license is needed to ride the vehicle on public roads.
Have malfunctions that impair safety promptly eliminated by an authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles workshop.
Adhere to the information and warning labels on the vehicle.
2.6 Protective clothing

washers) must be replaced with new parts.
Where thread lockers are used on screw connections (e.g., Loctite®
), follow the instructions for use from the manufacturer.
After disassembly, clean the parts that are to be reused and check them for damage and wear. Replace damaged or worn parts.
After you complete the repair or maintenance work, check the roadworthiness of the vehicle.

2 SAFETY ADVICE 8
2.8 Environment
Motorcycling is a wonderful sport and we naturally hope that you can enjoy it to the full. However, it is a potential problem for the
environment and can lead to conflicts with other persons. But if you use your motorcycle responsibly, you can ensure that such
problems and conflicts do not have to occur. To protect the future of motorcycle sport, make sure that you use your motorcycle
legally, display environmental consciousness, and respect the rights of others.
2.9 Owner’s Manual
It is important that you read this Owner’s Manual carefully and completely before making your first trip. The Owner’s Manual con-
tains useful information and many tips on how to operate, handle, and maintain your motorcycle. Only then will you find out how to
customize the vehicle ideally for your own use and how you can protect yourself from injury.
Keep the Owner’s Manual in an accessible place to enable you to refer to it as needed.
If you would like to know more about the vehicle or have questions on the material you read, please contact an authorized Husq-
varna Motorcycles dealer.
The Owner’s Manual is an important component of the vehicle and must be handed over to the new owner if the vehicle is sold.

3.4 Service
A prerequisite for perfect operation and prevention of premature wear is that the service, care, and tuning work on the engine and
chassis is properly carried out as described in the Owner’s Manual. Incorrect adjustment and tuning of the engine and chassis can
lead to damage and breakage of components.
Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such as on sand or on wet and muddy surfaces, can lead to considerably more rapid
wear of components such as the drive train, brake system, or suspension components. For this reason, it may be necessary to
inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled service.
It is imperative that you adhere to the stipulated run-in times and service intervals. If you observe these exactly, you will ensure a
much longer service life for your motorcycle.
3.5 Figures
The figures contained in the manual may depict special equipment.
In the interest of clarity, some components may be shown disassembled or may not be shown at all. It is not always necessary to
disassemble the component to perform the activity in question. Please follow the instructions in the text.
3.6 Customer service
Your authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles dealer will be happy to answer any questions you may have regarding your vehicle and
Husqvarna Motorcycles.

Page: 27

8 PREPARING FOR USE 26
Info
When off road, it is recommended that you are accompanied by another person on another vehicle so that you can help
each other.
– Try also to ride as slowly as possible and in a standing position to get a better feeling for the motorcycle.
– Do not make any off-road trips that exceed your ability and experience.
– Hold the handlebar firmly with both hands and keep your feet on the footrests when riding.
– If you carry luggage, make sure you secure it firmly as close as possible to the center of the vehicle and ensure even weight dis-
tribution between the front and rear wheels.
Info
Motorcycles react sensitively to any changes of weight distribution.
– The maximum permissible overall weight and the maximum permissible axle loads must not be exceeded.
Guideline
Maximum permissible overall weight 335 kg (739 lb.)
Maximum permissible front axle load 145 kg (320 lb.)
Maximum permissible rear axle load 190 kg (419 lb.)
– Check the spoke tension. ( p. 86)
Info
The spoke tension must be checked after half an hour of operation.
– Run the engine in. ( p. 26)
8.2 Running in the engine
– During the running-in phase, do not exceed the specified engine performance.
Guideline
Maximum engine performance
During the first 3 operating hours < 70 %
During the first 5 operating hours < 100 %
– Avoid fully opening the throttle!
8.3 Starting power of lithium-ion batteries at low temperatures
402555-01
Lithium-ion batteries are far lighter than lead batteries, have a low self-discharge rate,
and have more starting power at temperatures over 15 °C (60 °F). At low tempera-
tures, however, the starting power of lithium-ion batteries drops to below that of lead
batteries.
Multiple starting attempts may be needed. Press the electric starter button for 5 sec-
onds, and wait 30 seconds between attempts. The pauses are necessary so that the
created heat can distribute through the lithium-ion battery and the battery is not dam-
aged.
If the charged lithium-ion battery does not or only weakly turns over the electric
starter when temperatures are below 15 °C (60 °F), then the battery is not faulty, but
needs to be warmed up internally to increase its starting power (current output).
The starting power increases as the battery warms up.
8.4 Preparing the vehicle for difficult riding conditions
Info
Use of the vehicle under difficult conditions, such as on sand or on wet and muddy surfaces, can lead to considerably more
rapid wear of components such as the drive train, brake system, or suspension components. For this reason, it may be nec-
essary to inspect or replace parts before the next scheduled service.
– Seal the air filter box. ( p. 57)
– Clean the air filter and air filter box. ( p. 56)
Info
Check the air filter approx. every 30 minutes.

9.2 Starting
Danger
Danger of poisoning Exhaust gases are toxic and inhaling them may result in unconsciousness and death.
– Always make sure there is sufficient ventilation when running the engine.
– Use an effective exhaust extraction system when starting or running the engine in an enclosed space.
Note
Engine damage High revving speed with a cold engine negatively impacts the lifespan of the engine.
– Always run the engine warm at a low speed.
Info
If the motorcycle is unwilling to start, the cause can be old fuel in the float chamber. The flammable elements of the fuel
evaporate after a long time of standing.
If the float chamber is filled with fresh fuel, the engine starts immediately.
The motorcycle has been out of use for more than 1 week
– Empty the carburetor float chamber. ( p. 107)
– Turn handle  of the fuel tap to the ON position. (Figure E00410-10 p. 17)
Fuel can flow from the fuel tank to the carburetor.
– Remove the motorcycle from the stand.
– Shift gear to neutral.
(TE AU)
– Turn the emergency OFF switch to the position .
The engine is cold
– Pull the choke lever out as far as possible.

(TX 125 EU)
– Press the kick starter robustly through its full range.
Info
Do not open the throttle.
(All 150/250/300 models)
– Press the electric starter button or press the kick starter robustly through its full range.
Info
Press the electric starter button for a maximum of 5 seconds. Wait for 30 seconds before a further attempt at start-
ing.
At temperatures below 15 °C (60 °F), several attempts at starting may be necessary to warm-up the lithium-ion bat-
tery and thereby increase the starting power.
Do not open the throttle.
9.3 Starting off
Info
Switch on the light before riding. This will make it easier for other road users to see you.
When you are riding, the side stand must be folded up and secured with the rubber band.
– Pull the clutch lever, engage 1st gear, release the clutch lever slowly, and simultaneously open the throttle carefully.
9.4 Shifting, riding
Warning
Danger of accidents If you change down at high engine speed, the rear wheel blocks and the engine races.
– Do not change into a low gear at high engine speed.
Info
If you hear unusual noises while riding, stop immediately, switch off the engine, and contact an authorized Husqvarna
Motorcycles workshop.
First gear is used for starting off and for steep inclines.
– Shift into a higher gear when conditions allow (incline, road situation, etc.). To do so, release the throttle while simultaneously
pulling the clutch lever, shift into the next gear, release the clutch lever and open the throttle.
– If the choke function was activated, deactivate the choke function after the engine has warmed up.
– After reaching maximum speed by fully opening the throttle grip, turn the throttle back so it is ¾ open. This will barely reduce
the speed but fuel consumption will be considerably lower.
– Always open the throttle only as much as the engine can handle – abrupt throttle opening increases fuel consumption.
– To shift down, apply the brakes and close the throttle at the same time.
– Pull the clutch lever and shift into a lower gear, release the clutch lever slowly, and either open the throttle or shift again.
– Switch off the engine if running at idle or standing for a long time.
Guideline
≥ 2 min
– Avoid frequent and longer slipping of the clutch. As a result the gear oil, engine and cooling system heat up.
– Ride at a low engine speed instead of at a high engine speed with a slipping clutch.

9.5 Braking
Warning
Danger of accidents Excessively forceful application of the brakes blocks the wheels.
– Adjust application of the brakes to the respective riding situation and riding surface conditions.
Warning
Danger of accidents A spongy pressure point on the front or rear brake reduces braking efficiency.
– Check the brake system and do not continue riding until the problem is eliminated. (Your authorized Husqvarna Motorcy-
cles workshop will be glad to help.)
Warning
Danger of accidents Moisture and dirt impair the brake system.
– Brake carefully several times to dry out and remove dirt from the brake linings and the brake discs.

11 TUNING THE CHASSIS 37
11.1 Checking the basic chassis setting with the rider’s weight
Info
When adjusting the basic chassis setting, first adjust the shock absorber and then the fork.
401030-01
– For optimal motorcycle riding characteristics and to avoid damage to forks, shock
absorbers, swingarm, and frame, the basic settings of the suspension compo-
nents must match the rider’s weight.
– As delivered, Husqvarna motorcycles are adjusted for an average rider’s weight
(with full protective clothing).
Guideline
Standard rider weight 75… 85 kg (165… 187 lb.)
– If the rider’s weight is above or below this range, the basic setting of the suspen-
sion components must be adjusted accordingly.
– Small weight differences can be compensated by adjusting the spring preload,
but in the case of large weight differences, the springs must be replaced.
11.2 Compression damping of the shock absorber
The compression damping of the shock absorber is divided into two ranges: high-speed and low-speed.
High-speed and low-speed refer to the compression speed of the rear wheel suspension and not to the vehicle speed.
The high-speed setting, for example, has an effect on the landing after a jump: the rear wheel suspension compresses quickly.
The low-speed setting, for example, has an effect when riding over long ground swells: the rear wheel suspension compresses
slowly.
These two ranges can be adjusted separately, although the transition between high-speed and low-speed is gradual. Thus,
changes in the high-speed range affect the compression damping in the low-speed range and vice versa.
11.3 Adjusting the low-speed compression damping of the shock absorber
Caution
Risk of injury Parts of the shock absorber will fly off if the shock absorber is disassembled incorrectly.
The shock absorber is filled with highly compressed nitrogen.
– Please follow the description provided. (Your authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles workshop will be glad to help.)
Info
The effect of the low-speed setting can be seen in slow to normal compression of the shock absorber.

11.11 Checking the basic setting of the fork
Info
For various reasons, no exact riding sag can be determined for the fork.
401000-01
– As with the shock absorber, smaller differences in the rider’s weight can be com-
pensated by the spring preload.
– However, if the fork frequently bottoms out (hard end stop on compression),
harder springs must be fitted to avoid damage to the fork and frame.
– If the fork feels unusually hard after extended periods of operation, the fork legs
need to be bled.
