Neat. Sounds like Husqvarna will have the full lineup of white KTMs soon. Presuming of course that this FX/XCF bike is a new addition and not a replacement for the FE bikes.

Air forks are interesting. I've heard positive rumors about the WP fork despite the negative feedback about the showa version. I wonder if the XCF will stick with spring forks and that (plus the subframe) will be the major difference between the two. Otherwise hard to see much besides the plastic to separate them.

We will have the dealer program in front of us on Monday and I was told that we can expect these new TX300 and the FX350/450 on the floor here as early as mid/late June along with the 2017 FC/TC models.

AER fork as mentioned is unlike the KYB and Showa versions as they do not fully collapse if the fork seals fail and air leaks out.

Traction control feature is really cool and will be exciting to try on those greasy rainy days.

Besides the all new motor in the TX300 and TC250 the most anticipated change to try out will be all the features added to reduce vibration including the counter balancer as this is a common complaint on all 300 2 stroke bikes.

I am super excited to get these at the shop and I will stay in tune with you all to let you know when they land and you can check them out for yourselves.

Just an update. I have a TX300 on the floor to stop by and check out. Sorry it is sold (as next batch in July) but at least you can see what the hype is.
