2022 Husqvarna FC 450 Rockstar Edition First Look

The 2022 Husqvarna FC 450 Rockstar Edition is here, and it is a substantially different motorcycle from the standard FC 450 motocrosser/supercrosser. The chassis and the motor are new, and check out the aesthetic move from white to black.

The 2022 Husqvarna FC 450 Rockstar Edition’s motor has been reworked and moved in the chromoly frame. Two goals were in mind—increased power output and better handling due to more centralized weight. It’s also over 10 ounces lighter than the previous version.
There’s a new cylinder head on the FC 450 Rockstar Edition. It remains a SOHC powerplant with a 95mm bore and 63.4mm stroke. However, there’s a new more-compact cylinder head that moves the cam closer to the chassis’ center of gravity.
The new valve cover is lighter and makes maintenance easier. There are just two mounting screws, and inside there’s only one oil-spray jet and a DLC coating on the rocker arm.
The cam chain system has gotten attention. The new chain is fine-punched, and the friction from the chain guides has been reduced. Additionally, lock positions on the cam chain make it easier to work on.
The updated CP bridged-box-type piston ups the compression ratio to 13.1:1. The piston also gets anodized annular groves.
The Pankl five-speed transmission gets a redesign. The overall transmission ratio is 29:72, which Husqvarna claims results in “smooth and precise shifting.” The shift shaft has been modified to reduce the force needed to change gears.
An upshift-only quickshifter is standard on the 2022 Husqvarna FC 450 Rockstar Edition. We can’t wait to try this feature. We’ve used it on dual-sport bikes, and quickshifters are effective in the dirt, just as they are on the pavement. If you don’t like how it works, it can be shut off. In addition to being upshift-only, it also only works for shifting up from 2nd through to 5th gear.
Traction control and launch control return as electronic rider aids, as do two power modes with a new selector switch on the handlebar. The start/stop switch on the right handlebar is also new.
The DDS clutch is also updated. Pressure lubrication is added to increase cooling and minimize clutch fade, and the basket reflects the demands of the revamped transmission.
Husqvarna tilted the motor back two degrees and dropped the countershaft sprocket 3mm on the 2022 FC 450 Rockstar Edition. Reducing squat is a primary goal this year, and the chassis had been massaged to make that happen. The shock mount has been moved from the main frame tube, and the frame’s thickness has been altered to make the steering head and shock mount stronger. Further, the steering head has a one-piece seal for easier maintenance.
Carbon fiber in the subframe is replaced by aluminum. The subframe is now a polyamide/aluminum hybrid that weighs less than four pounds. Aluminum is used for the lower spars and frame mounts. The rigidity of the new subframe works with the revised frame for optimal flex characteristics and less weight.
The new swingarm is die-cast aluminum, and hollow. This cut nearly seven ounces of unsprung weight. A new 22mm rear axle matches the revised chassis flex.
