Wondering if anyone has seen or heard of this setup. Rumors are that the newly rebranded and released bikes have a pretty sweet setup for the price.

I'm getting ready to trade up and need some input. Was originally thinking a husky 501 Fe for double duty

For the record, I'm 250 with gear, im a 5 or 6 on rider level, I'm on my bike at least twice a week 7 months a year and i currently have a 09 yz450f and a 2017 klr 650 I'm looking to combine\replace and build out a dirtsled with

Thanks yall

Interesting. It sure looks like my te510. I put 300 hrs on the snow on a 2010 te510, it is still running on snow. I have since put 200 hrs on a 17 450fx and 30 hrs on a 18 500 excf. Te510 was best snowbike of the three primarily due to close 6 speed trans. More power, more stator output and vastly better trans than the fx. Similar power to 500 exc, trans a bit closer, but much heavier. Unfortunately both 500s vibrate considerable more than fx. Unfortunately they removed kick start and it got heavier? I wonder if it now has counterbalance shaft that the te510 did not have.
