We would like to congratulate you on your purchase of a Husaberg motorcycle.
You are now the owner of a state-of-the-art sport motorcycle that guarantees to bring you lots
of fun and enjoyment, provided that you clean and maintain it appropriately. Before you go
for your first ride, be sure to read this manual carefully and thoroughly in order to familiarize yourself with how to operate your new motorcycle and with its characteristics,
even if this means that you will have to dedicate some of your valuable time to this
task. Only by doing so will you learn how to tune your motorcycle to your specific
needs and how to protect yourself against injury. Besides, this manual contains important information on motorcycle maintenance. At the time this manual was typeset, it was
up-to-date with the latest state of this production series. Please note that motorcycle features
may vary according to the effective legal provisions. It cannot be completely ruled out, however, that minor discrepancies may exist resulting from further design upgrades of these
motorcycles.This manual is an important part of your motorcycle and should be passed on to
any subsequent owner in case you decide to sell it.
The work marked with an * in the chapter "Servicing the chassis and engine" must be performed by an authorized Husaberg dealer. If such service work becomes necessary during a
competition, it must be performed by a trained mechanic.
For your own safety, use Husaberg-approved parts and accessories only. Husaberg
is not liable for damage that arises in connection with the use of other products.
Take special care to follow the recommended run in, inspection, and maintenance intervals.
Heeding these guidelines will significantly increase the life of your motorcycle. Be sure to
have your motorcycle serviced by an authorized Husaberg dealer to maintain the validity of
your warranty.
Off-road / Supermoto motorcycle driving is a wonderful sport and we hope that you will be
able to enjoy it to the full. It may, however, involve potential problems for the environment or
lead to conflicts with others. These problems or conflicts can be avoided if the motorcycle is
used responsibly. To safeguard the future of motorcycle sports, make sure that you use the
motorcycle in accordance with the law, show that you are environmentally conscious and respect the rights of others.

IMPORTANT LIMITED WARRANTY AND LIMITED GUARANTEE
INFORMATION
Husaberg sports motorcycles are designed and constructed to resist the usual wear and tear
of normal use in competitions.
The motorcycles comply with the regulations and categories currently in effect with the leading
international motorcycle associations.
Observance of the service, maintenance and tuning instructions for the engine and chassis
specified in the Owner's Manual is a prerequisite for faultless operation and the avoidance of
premature wear. An improperly tuned chassis can lead to damage and breakage of the chassis components (see chapter on checking the basic chassis setting).
The service work described in the "Lubrication and maintenance chart" must be carried out
and confirmed by an authorized Husaberg dealer, otherwise your warranty will become void.
The fuels and lubricants specified in the Owner's Manual or fluids with equivalent specifications must be used in accordance with the maintenance schedule.
No claims can be filed under the warranty for damage or consequential damage caused by
manipulations or conversions to the motorcycle.
The use of the motorcycle under extreme conditions, e.g. on extremely muddy and wet terrain, can lead to higher than average wear on components such as the drive train or the brakes. In this case it may become necessary to service or replace wear parts before the service
limit specified in the maintenance schedule has been reached.
MODELS FE
“On the road“ approved models are only allowed on public roads in the original homologated
(throttled) version. Without this performance restriction (i.e. de-throttled), these models
are only allowed to be driven off-road and not on public roads.The FE models are designed for off-road sports endurance competitions(enduro) and not suitable for predominant
motocross use.
MODELS FS
The FS models are only allowed on public roads in the original homologated (throttled) version. Without this performance restriction (i.e. dethrottled), these models are only allo-
wed to be driven in Supermoto competitions but not on public roads.
No warranty will be assumed if the bike is used in races or competitions.
In accordance with the international quality management ISO 9001 standard, Husaberg uses quality assurance processes that lead to the highest possible product quality.

CLUTCH LEVER
The clutch lever (1) is located on the left side of the handlebar. The adjusting screw (A) is used to change the original position of the clutch lever
(see maintenance work on chassis and engine).
HAND DECOMPRESSION LEVER
The hand decompression lever (2) is needed only if the carburetor overflows after a fall. To "pump the engine free", pull the hand decompression
lever during the starting procedure.
The outer end of the lever must provide for a backlash of approx. 10 mm
(0.4 in) at all times. Only thereafter may it cause valve motion (to be recognized by the stronger resistance which the hand decompression lever
encounters).
HAND BRAKE LEVER
The hand brake lever (3) is located on the right side of the handlebar and
actuates the front brake. The basic setting of the hand brake lever can
be adjusted (see maintenance work).

DAMPING ACTION DURING COMPRESSION OF
SHOCK ABSORBER
The shock absorber can synchronize the compression
damping in the low and high-speed range separately (Dual Compression
Control).
Low and high speed refers to the movement of the shock absorber during
compression and not to the speed of the motorcycle.
The low and high-speed technology overlaps.
The low-speed setting is primarily for slow to normal shock absorber
compression rates.
The high-speed setting is effective at fast compression rates.
Turning in a clockwise direction will increase the damping, turning
counterclockwise will decrease the damping.
STANDARD LOW-SPEED SETTING:
– turn the adjusting screw (1) to the limit in a clockwise direction using
a screwdriver .
– unscrew the respective number of clicks for the specific type of shock
absorber in a counterclockwise direction.
Typ WP Suspension 12457B02 ..........22 clicks
Typ WP Suspension 12457B03 ..........12 clicks
STANDARD HIGH-SPEED SETTING:
– turn the adjusting screw (2) to the limit in a clockwise direction using
a box wrench.
– unscrew the respective number of turns for the specific type of shock
absorber in a counterclockwise direction.
Typ WP Suspension 12457B02...........2 turns
Typ WP Suspension 12457B03...........2 turns
WARNING: The damping unit of the shock absorber is
filled with high-compression nitrogen. Never try to take the
shock absorber apart or to do any maintenance work yourself. Severe injuries could be the result. Never unscrew the black
screw connection (3) (24mm).

TIPS AND WARNINGS FOR STARTING THE MOTORCYCLE
- 19 -
ENGLISH
INSTRUCTIONS FOR INITIAL OPERATION
– Verify that your Husaberg dealer performed the PREPARATION
OF VEHICLE jobs (see Customer Service Manual).
– Read these operating instructions carefully before your first ride.
– Familiarize yourself with the operating elements.
– Set the clutch lever, the handbrake lever, and the footbrake
pedal to the positions that are most convenient for you.
– Get used to handling the motorcycle on an empty parking lot
or open space, before starting on a longer drive. Also try to
drive as slowly as possible and in a standing position, to
improve your feeling for the vehicle.
– Do not drive along off-road tracks which go beyond your abitily
and experience.
– Hold the handlebars with both hands and leave your feet on
the foot rests while driving.
– Remove your foot from the foot brake lever when you are not
braking. If the foot brake lever is not released the brake pads
rub continuously and the braking system is over-heated.
– Do not make any alterations to the motorcycle and always use
ORIGINAL Husaberg SPARE PARTS. Spare parts from other
manufacturers can impair the safety of the motorcycle.
– Motorcycles are sensitive to alterations in the distribution of
weight. If you are taking luggage with you, this should be secu-
red as close as possible to the middle of the vehicle; distribute
the weight evenly between the front and rear wheel. Never
exceed the maximum permissible laden weight and the axle
weights. The maximum permissible laden weight is comprised
of the following components:
– Motorcycle ready for operation and tank full
– Luggage
– Driver with protective clothing and helmet.
– Pay attention to the running-in procedure.
RUNNING IN THE HUSABERG MODELS
Even very precisely machined sections of engine components
have rougher surfaces than components which have been sliding
across one another for quite some time. Therefore, every engine
needs to be broken in.
For this reason, do not load the engine more than 50% of its capacity during the first 3 operating hours. Besides, the engine speed
must not exceed 7000 rpm. Avoid going full-throttle!
In the following 12 operating hours, you may load the engine up
to 75% of its capacity. Use the motorcycle on various types of terrain (road, easy off-road trails).
CAUTION: The Husaberg models were uncompromi-
singly designed for off-road competition purposes
only. “On the road“ approved models FE/FS are only
allowed on public roads in the original homologated
(throttled) version. Avoid extended on-road rides at full
throttle.
WARNING: Wear suitable clothing when driving a
motorcycle. Clever Husaberg drivers always wear a helmet, boots, gloves and a jacket, regardless of whether
driving all day or just for a short trip. The protective
clothing should be brightly colored so that other
vehicles can see you as early as possible.
Always turn on the light to make sure that other drivers become aware of you as early as possible.
Do not drive after having consumed alcohol.
Only use accessories recommended by Husaberg. For
example, front panelling can impair the driving properties of the motorcycle. Cases, extra tanks, etc. can
alter the weight distribution and thus also impair the
vehicles driving properties.
The front and rear wheel may only be fitted with tires
that have the same profile type.
The Husaberg models are designed and dimensioned
for 1 person only. Never take another rider along.
Observe the traffic regulations, drive defensively and
try to look ahead as far as possible so that any hazards
can be recognized as early as possible.
Adjust your driving speed according to the conditions
and your driving skills.
Drive carefully on unknown roads or on unfamiliar
trials.
When driving off-road, always have a friend on a second
motorcycle to keep you company, so that you can help
each other should difficulties arise.
Replace the helmet visor or goggle lens when scratched or damaged. if bright light shines through a scratched visor or lens, the operator will be blinded.
Never leave your motorcycle without supervision if the
engine is running.
When riding your motorcycle, please bear in mind that
other people may feel molested by excessive noise.
DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS

ENGLISH
CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE EACH START
When you start off, the motorcycle must be in perfect technical
condition. For safety reasons, you should make a habit of performing an
overall check of your motorcycle before each start.
The following checks should be performed:
1 CHECK THE OIL LEVEL
Insufficient oil results in premature wear and consequently to engine
damage. Too much engine oil will lead to higher oil consumption and
will clog the carburetor.
2 FUEL
Check that there is sufficient fuel in the tank; when closing the
filler cap, check that the tank venting hose is free of kinks.
3 CHAIN
A loose chain can fall from the chain wheels; an extremely worn chain
can tear, and insufficient lubrication can result in unnecessary wear
to the chain and chain wheels. Excessive tensioning of the chain will
put additional load on the components of the secondary drivetrain (chain,
bearings of transmission and rear wheel). Aside from resulting in premature wear, if worst comes to worst the chain may rupture or the countershaft of the transmission may break.
4 TIRES
Check for damaged tires. Tires showing cuts or dents must be replaced. The tread depth must comply with the legal regulations. Also check
the air pressure. Insufficient tread and incorrect air pressure deteriorate the driving performance.
5 BRAKES
Check correct functioning of the braking system. Check for
sufficient brake fluid in the reservoir. The reservoirs have been designed in such a way that brake fluid does not need to be refilled even
when the brake pads are worn. If the level of brake fluid falls below
the minimum value, this indicates a leak in the braking system or completely worn out brake pads. Arrange for the braking system to be checked by a Husaberg specialist, as complete failure of the braking system can be avoided.
Also check the state of the brake hose and the thickness of the brake
linings.
Check free travel at the hand brake lever and foot brake lever.
6 CABLES
Check correct setting and easy running of all control cables.
7 COOLING FLUID
Check the level of the cooling fluid when the engine is cold.
8 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Check correct functioning of headlamps, tail-lights, brake lights,
indicators, control lamps and horn while the engine is running.
9 LUGGAGE
If you are taking luggage with you, check that this is securely fastened.
10 REAR MIRROR
Checking the rear mirror setting.
