FE 501s Baja Build: Part 31 – Shakedown (ADV Test Ride!)

Today we went out to our Team Captain’s family farm to put these Enduro bikes to the test! And oh boy, am I glad we did this shakedown well ahead of the Adventure Ride event. We found multiple logistics issues that will need to be solved: not having touchscreen gloves, not having anti-fog visors, not having bungie straps, not having an armored Enduro jacket, not having backup rain gear, not enough battery life on the Garmin Nav unit, not enough USB-C charge ports, Gaia GPS Android Auto issues, saddlebags quick-release knob coming loose, the tail bag is too tall to easily swing a leg over the bike, etc… Stay tuned for more videos coming soon!

Enhanced with the latest technical innovations and producing more power than the previous generation, the FE 501s continues to be the most powerful machine in Husqvarna Motorcycles’ dual-sport line-up. A new engine for 2024 produces a broader spread of controllable power and by positioning the engine shaft arrangements at the ideal center of gravity, maneuverability is vastly improved. Aiding this agile feel is the new chassis, which has been developed and manufactured using advanced engineering techniques. Together with new WP Suspension, enhanced comfort is assured. Expertly assembled with high-quality components throughout, the FE 501s is finished with new functional bodywork adorned with white, yellow, and blue graphics inspired by the Swedish heritage of the brand.
