Husqvarna gives its two-stroke mini motocross models a rework for the 2023 model year. These new off-road bikes will be available starting May of this year and will be priced at $4,699 (TC 50), $5,499 (TC 65), $6,599 (TC 85 17/14), and $6,799 (TC 85 19/16). All four machines will feature revised graphics that make use of a yellow/gray/white color scheme.
New Maxxis MX-ST tires and new graphics mark the major changes to the TC 50, which continues to offer 5.5 hp, automatic clutch, chrome molybdenum steel frame, WP suspension front and rear, along with hydraulic brakes and wave rotors.
The TC 65 gets a more extensive update, with new Maxxis MX-ST tires, new graphics, and new Formula floating brake calipers. It also receives new clutch and braking components to help improve the life span of those systems.
The TC 85 will also come with new Maxxis MX-ST tires on both the 17/14 and 19/16 configurations. They will wrap Black Excel rims, which aid in improving unsprung weight and stability. The throttle assembly is improved as well for better action in a variety of riding scenarios.
