Husqvarna has revealed its Factory Editions for 2025. These models are tributes to the bikes that Malcolm Stewart and RJ Hampshire will ride in the upcoming Monster Energy Supercross season as well as Outdoor Motocross and SMX. They still feature Rockstar logos, even though the official name of the line is no longer “Rockstar Editions.” The bikes are now referred to as Factory Editions, just like the corresponding KTM models. The prices are $12,799 for the FC450 and $11,699 FC250. The official press release follows>
Husqvarna Mobility is pleased to unveil its FC 250 Factory Edition and FC 450 Factory Edition lineup for 2025. Each machine is finished with the latest Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing livery for a true race team look, with both models expertly assembled using cutting-edge technology, an extensive list of Technical Accessories, and championship-winning components. This combination delivers a distinct on-track advantage for all racers, with the overall performance of each motorcycle customizable through advanced electronics that ensure a truly personalized riding experience.
Headlining the list of Technical Accessories found on both Factory Edition models are the Connectivity Unit Offroad (CUO) and the front fender-mounted GPS sensor. Once the CUO is paired with the Ride Husqvarna Motorcycles app on a smartphone, a choice of pre-set engine maps, based on pre-defined track conditions, can be activated from the ‘Engine’ section of the app. Each map can then be personalized and saved, with riders able to refine the settings of the engine braking, Launch and Traction Control, as well as Quickshifter sensitivity to suit their speed and ability.
Every track session is recorded by the GPS sensor. Within the ‘Rider’ feature of the app, which is powered by LITPro (subscription based), lap-times are shown together with the fastest lines around any race track. This analysis allows racers to reduce their lap times as they can clearly see the most efficient way to ride any circuit. The free-to-download app also features set-up recommendations for the WP suspension, ensuring riders compete with optimal settings for every type of racing surface.
Both Factory Edition models are built with the very best Technical Accessories to maximize durability and performance. The Factory Racing wheel set is equipped with Dunlop GEOMAX MX34 tires, while Factory Racing triple clamps feature handlebar mounts that offer a choice of two mounting positions, as well as the option to be fitted with or without rubber dampers for a customized set-up.
To aid durability, the skid plate and front disc protector are made from 2K Carbon. A Rekluse clutch cover, WP Factory start device, GUTS Factory Racing seat cover, and FMF Racing Factory 4.1 silencer further underline the premium specification of each machine.
