KTM / HUSKY 350 question


what sort of mileage should I expect to get out of my Husky 2015 fe 350 before I would have to do any major work on the engine? I have done 1880 miles so far and I change the oil / filter every 20hrs  also any pointers on what to look out for , I only use the bike for green lanes. Cheers

Kev

Is it exactly the same engine as the KTM 350?
If so I think you'll do better to ask that question instead, and maybe on the national forum because I don't know many in Devon who have the coveted 350.

What does the factory manual recommend ? if you do not race it then i would run it 3 x the recommend then check for wear.

I've got a excf350 and have just got to 115 hours, I always do the oil and filter at 10 hours, just had the valves checked, no problem at all, still like new! Love the bike, it's perfect for me!, have had nothing go wrong, nothing break, I just make sure everything is done to the book, have heard of a few bikes (350) that are over 400 hours, so don't worry about it, most people who ride them for completion nail them on the limiter for hours, to be honest I'm just using for enduro practices and laning, so it's never going to have a life like a completion bike, so should be absolutely fine!

Thanks, Admin, and Andy , for the replys and advice if I got 400 ish hours out of mine I would be well chuffed, I have a trip coming up soon in Portugal trail riding about 250 miles so I will have a valve check done on my return .

cheers
