Here is the 2018 Husqvarna TE250i. It’s the first of it’s kind fuel injected and oil injected production two stroke dirt bike. First off, I would like to thank Husqvarna for lending this bike to me for the review. They let me keep the bike for about 5 weeks to do the review, which was a big help. Going into this review of the Husky TE250i, I wanted to have an open mind. As many of you know, I’ve been skeptical that EFI would possibly ruin a good thing we have going with our relatively simple 2 stroke dirt bikes. I was afraid that going to EFI, for whatever the reason, would needlessly add complexity, cost, and weight. Turns out, I was right about the all of those things. What I didn’t anticipate is that the bike would run AMAZING. I wasn’t prepared for how well the thing would run, how clean it would run, and how much fun it would be to ride.

Yes, this bike is several pounds heavier than my 2017 KTM 250 XC. 15 lbs heavier to be exact. It’s even 7 lbs heavier than the KTM 250 XC-W TPI that I had right next to it in my shop and on rides we did. Do you feel that extra weight when riding it? Nope. You don’t. If anything, this bike feels lighter than my 250 XC when riding it.

This bike is not without faults and there are some things that I hope are addressed in future models. That shouldn’t take away from the fact that overall, this bike is an incredible package. EFI is going to save the 2 stroke. Mark my words. Enjoy the video.
