Designed to perform at the very highest level, the FC 450 Rockstar Edition is the most competition-focused machine in Husqvarna Motorcycles' motocross line-up. The exciting model is closely based on the Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing machines set to compete in the 2023 AMA Supercross season, and is enhanced for racing with specifically chosen and race-tested Technical Accessories. Equipped with advanced rider aids and featuring revised suspension settings, the FC 450 Rockstar Edition is both faster and easier to ride and comes with the latest race team replica graphics. |

FINEST COMPONENTRY

|
 FMF titanium exhaust
As used by Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing in AMA Supercross and Pro Motocross competition, the FMF Factory 4.1 RCT silencer is a championship-winning component. Beautifully crafted with a blue anodised titanium body and finished with a carbon fibre end cap, the silencer is considerably lighter than standard and delivers a notable boost to overall performance.
|
|
 Factory Racing wheel set
Superior craftsmanship at its finest. Black anodised EXCEL Takasago rims laced to black CNC-machined hubs using high-quality spokes create an exceptionally strong pair of wheels. Not only incredibly robust, but the weight savings achieved with the Factory Racing Wheel Set contribute to the overall handling of the FC 450 Rockstar Edition thanks to the reduction in unsprung weight.
|
|
 Factory Racing triple clamps
Featuring a unique clamping design for perfect fork alignment and uncompromised suspension performance, the CNC-machined Factory Racing triple clamps are fully adjustable to offer true customisation. With a choice of two offset positions as well as the option to install the handlebars with rubber mounts for added comfort, or without for a more precise front-end feel, a personalised set-up can easily be achieved.
|
|
 ProTaper handlebar
Second to none when it comes to function and style, the ProTaper handlebar is lightweight and incredibly strong. The specifically selected bar bend reduces pressure points on the rider's hands with soft compound ODI lock-on grips offering additional comfort.
|
|
 Tyres
Delivering best-in-class performance, the Dunlop GEOMAX MX33 Motocross tires feature a race proven 'block-within-a-block' design for progressive cornering and exceptional grip on a wide variety of racing surfaces.

ABSOLUTE CONTROL

Bodywork
With bodywork designed to enhance unrestricted movements on the motorcycle, all riders can perform at their very best for extended periods of time. The high-grip GUTS Racing seat cover ensures total control even in the harshest of riding conditions while the latest Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing graphics create a true race team replica machine.
|
WP XACT front suspension
The high-performance WP XACT 48 mm split air fork is updated with new shim stack settings to improve comfort, balance, and cornering agility. With oil and air bypasses reducing pressure peaks, in combination with a midvalve damping system, the fork provides exceptional feedback from the front wheel. A hydrostop system creates a more progressive damping force in the final 40 mm of travel for improved bottoming resistance on hard landings.
|
|
WP XACT shock absorber
In-line with the updated fork settings and to ensure the FC 450 Rockstar Edition is perfectly balanced, the WP XACT rear shock features revised shim stack settings. Providing 300 mm of rear wheel travel, the shock offers progressive damping, superior energy absorption, and impressive cornering agility.
|
|
Frame
Black powder coated for a true race team look, the hydro-formed, laser-cut, and robot-welded steel frame is expertly crafted. Constructed with specifically calculated parameters of longitudinal and torsional flex, the chassis provides exceptional rider feedback, energy absorption, and straight-line stability. Large footrests are mounted closer to the centre of the motorcycle and help maintain forward momentum through deep ruts. Additionally, a new 2K carbon composite skid plate is fitted to protect the frame and engine from hard impacts while minimising weight.
|
|
Subframe
The composite subframe is manufactured using advanced technologies. Constructed with a blend of 60% polyamide and 40% aluminium, the subframe weighs only 3.9 pounds (1.8 kilograms) and is incredibly durable. Designed with the assistance of computational dynamics, specific rigidity has been engineered into the subframe to enhance overall handling and rider comfort.
|
|
Swingarm
The aluminium swingarm has been designed to ensure optimal stiffness and durability. Further accentuating the revised flex characteristics from the chassis, a 22 mm rear axle is fitted. Additionally, the chain guard and glider have a smooth profile and offer outstanding durability.

ADVANCED ELECTRONICS

Master_your_art
Map select switch
The intuitive handlebar-mounted map select switch allows riders to engage both launch and traction control, enable the Quickshift functionality, and activate one of two engine maps. The easy-to-operate map select switch allows racers to quickly alter the engine characteristics on a race-by-race basis depending on track conditions and rider preference.
|
Mapping
For personalised power delivery, the FC 450 Rockstar Edition has two built-in engine maps as standard, which can be selected and engaged via the map select switch. Map 1 offers linear, predictable power while Map 2 is more aggressive for a sharper throttle response and a more explosive power output.
|
Quickshifter
The Quickshift function can be activated via the map select switch and works by interrupting the ignition for a fraction of a second for smooth and precise gear changes, even when the throttle is fully open. To help prevent selecting neutral, Quickshifter is only active from second gear upwards.
|
Traction Control
Traction control on the FC 450 Rockstar Edition is engaged by pressing the 'TC' button on the map select switch. Analysing throttle input from the rider and the rate at which engine RPM increases, if the RPM increases too quickly, the Engine Management System (EMS) registers a loss of grip and reduces the amount of power to the rear wheel to ensure maximum traction. This is a distinct advantage in wet and slippery conditions.
|
|
 Launch Control
With the engine at idle, Launch Control is engaged by pressing the Traction Control and Quickshift buttons simultaneously. Both symbols will start flashing to indicate that Launch Control is activated. Designed for race starts, this technology limits the amount of power to the rear wheel, improving traction, and helps to prevent loss of control under hard acceleration. Once a gear change is made, Launch Control deactivates automatically. Quickshift must be activated before Launch Control to use Quickshift during starts.
|
|
 Electric start and Li-Ion battery
Keeping overall weight to a minimum and ensuring fast, reliable starting, the Li-Ion 2.0 Ah battery fitted to the FC 450 Rockstar Edition is approximately 2.2 lb (1 kg) lighter than a conventional lead battery. Additionally, the electric start and engine stop buttons are located inside the same housing for a simplified experience.
