HUSQVARNA HAS BEEN BUSY
The popular brand with the often wronglypronounced Swedish name has added a host of new tech to its range for 2026. Leaning on and yet competing against its orange brethren, the new Husqvarna’ s have gone their own way to produce a sharpened range for 2026. In for particular attention are the youngster’ s steeds, as in the 50-85cc models, with upgrades everywhere. The TC50 has new air cartridges in the forks and retains the adjustability to cover the growing and developing rider for longer. The TC65 also gets suspension upgrades, laser-cut
head gasket, new exhaust valve and an improved hydraulic clutch to make the most of the close ratio six-speed gearbox. The TC85 also receives the springer treatment and gets an adjustable rear brake pedal, so the young guns are well sorted. For the bigger kids, new wiring looms, graphics, fuel supply protection, easier to use radiator caps and all the good bits from last season mean the 2026 full lineup is ready to hit the dirt and production is in full swing. Two-stroke or four, the choice is yours.
