    I see from the current Husky site that TE stands for two-stroke enduro and FE stands for four-stroke enduro. Has this always been the case? I see reference to older TE510's as four-strokes. What's the deal?
    Thanks.

    TE and FE is the Austrian Husky naming convention for two and four stroke Enduro respectively. The Italian Husky's (pre 2014) were TE for 4 stroke and WR for 2 stroke.
    The Austrian TE and FE designation was inherited from the Husaberg line-up.

    In the Italian range E was for Enduro and C was for Cross (Motocross). TC models came without headlight and tail-lights. CR also stood for close ratio gearbox more suited to motocross and WR for Wide Ratio more suited to Enduro.

    Are you looking to buy a bike?

    No not really, what does matter is the condition of the bike to its age.
