After years of development and faithful service, it seems Husqvarna’s WR250 motocross has finally come into its own for 2012.

The 2012 model will in fact feature very few changes, i.e. the chromoly steel chassis will now come in black instead of white.

The light alloy rocker arm is hooked up to a Sachs shock absorber, and the front suspension has kept the same fully adjustable, hydraulic Kayaba forks also found on Husqvarna’s other enduro racing machines.

Brembo brakes and 260 mm discs straddled by dual-piston floating callipers handle stopping duties up front, while a solid disc will ensure maximum control in back as well as great brake pad life expectancy on muddy terrain.

The Husky will be powered by a 250-cc, two-stroke engine.
