2012 Husqvarna CR 65 Review


The all new CR 65 extends the mini-bike range of Husqvarna and represents the pinnacle of Husqvarna's proven off-road product development with the use of quality materials and components that in turn offer a standard equipment level that is sure to become the benchmark for the category.

The frame has also been changed at the steering-head area, reinforced with chrome-moly 25CrMo4 steel plates. The rear seat rail and engine supports have also been similarly strengthened. Given the improved rigidity of the frame, the preload of the Kayaba suspension was reset: the fork has a harder setting and the monoshock damps more slowly. It is softer at the start of the stroke, and has a new progressive spring.

The engine of the Husqvarna CR65 can threaten adversaries, but the power delivery is just right for those learning to handle a powerful bike and go on to become champions. The single cylinder is 65 cc, water cooled, with two radiators, because the CR65's engine has all the horsepower to triumph and make its riders the champions of the future.

Above all else, the engine is absolutely reliable. Air intake is by means of reed valve and a large Mikuni 24 mm carburetor. The 6 speed gearbox has a clutch with hydraulic command, for more sensitivity and less strain on the rider.
