2026 Husqvarna TC50 Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits

Bodywork

The clean and sleek bodywork is scaled down from what is found on the full-size machines and offers the same proven ergonomics. By replicating the design, youngsters will benefit from the larger contact points that allow them to grip the bike tighter with their legs for enhanced control. In addition, a flat seat profile offers unrestricted movement.

 

Airbox

A simple installation process allows fast, clean, and easy air filter changes. The Twin Air filter, which features a large surface area for maximum air flow, is fitted as standard and can be easily accessed by removing the quick-release seat by hand.

 

Handlebars & grips

High-quality aluminum handlebars with a black anodized finish minimize vibration and maximize stability. The wide bar bend enhances comfort and leads to better body positioning with thin diameter ODI grips allowing for a heightened level of control.

 

Fuel tank

Sleek in design and fitted onto the frame inside the ergonomic bodywork, the slim fuel tank offers an ample fuel capacity of 0.62 gallon (2.35 liters).

Adjustable ergonomics

To accommodate youngsters of different sizes, the TC 50 offers multiple adjustment options to suit a wider range of riders, based on their height and set-up preference. The handlebars can be mounted in four different positions, the rear shock can be repositioned from its standard ‘high’ position into a lower setting, and the subframe and bodywork can be installed in two different places to suit each individual rider.

 

Frame

The TC 50 frame is made from chromium molybdenum steel and offers a superior riding experience thanks to its precise geometry and calculated flex. Utilizing a proven design concept, the shock is not connected to the upper frame tube to reduce the energy transferred through the chassis, which leads to greater stability. Frame protectors with a textured surface enhance control in all conditions and protects the dark blue metallic powder coating from wear.

Subframe

Manufactured using a combination of polyamide glass fiber and steel, this hybrid construction offers exceptional reliability. Robust, lightweight, and durable, the subframe plays a vital role in the handling of the TC 50, and it can be adjusted in height for personalized ergonomics.

 

Forged triple clamps

Forged triple clamps align the forks perfectly and ensure smooth, uncompromised performance from the WP suspension. The upper clamp is designed to prevent dirt and water from reaching the steering bearings, extending the time between services. Overall, the triple clamps offer calculated flex characteristics without sacrificing stability.

 

WP forks

Featuring the latest in suspension technology, the TC 50 is equipped with an updated 35 mm WP XACT-USD forks. Besides being very lightweight, the forks offer exceptional damping and comfort, which allows for youngsters to ride with complete confidence. The advanced air spring in the left fork leg can be easily adjusted using the supplied air pump to create the perfect set up for any rider, with the forks providing 205 mm of travel.

 

WP shock

Connecting directly to the swingarm, the WP XACT shock features race-tested settings for exceptional damping. With the ability to adjust the preload, high and low speed compression, and rebound, the WP XACT shock can be tailored to suit any rider.

 

Swingarm

The hollow, die-cast aluminum swingarm is manufactured from a single piece of aluminum for optimal stiffness. In order to optimize and match the flex characteristics of the frame, a 12 mm rear axle is fitted. Additionally, the chain guard and chain slider are designed to prevent mud from building up around the swingarm.

 

Engine

The compact and powerful TC 50 engine features the latest 2-stroke technology and produces a broad spread of usable power to benefit every rider. The crankshaft is positioned close to the center of gravity to not only enhance overall handling, but to create the perfect intake angle for generating exceptional performance.

 

Cylinder head

Unique cylinder head inserts are made specifically for the TC 50 and significantly enhance heat conduction. Thanks to their unique design, the inserts are not compatible with other TC models, ensuring proper fitment.

 

Carburetor

The settings inside the proven Dellorto PHBG 19 BS carburetor maximize engine performance, ensuring the TC 50 runs cleanly throughout its rev-range.

 

Exhaust system

The exhaust system boosts performance of the TC 50 considerably. With the welding seams removed from the inside, exhaust gas flow is unrestricted and maximum power is delivered, while a laser-cut exhaust flange gasket provides a perfect seal. The silencer now features a tighter sealing around the end cap and is complete with a black anodized finish.

 

Automatic clutch

With a reinforced basket and high-quality plates, the automatic clutch inside the TC 50 offers excellent durability and consistent performance. The clutch pack is assembled using Torx bolts to make inspection and replacement easier, while the gasket behind the clutch cover offers exceptional sealing.

Brakes

By combining hydraulically operated brake calipers and waved, state-of-the-art discs front and rear, braking performance is consistent and reliable. Durability of the calipers and discs extends maintenance schedules while the forged rear brake pedal enhances control.

 

Radiators

A large capacity radiator, together with a simple routing of the hoses, ensures exceptional cooling. The overall design positions the radiator away from potential damage, with the cooling system complete with a new threaded radiator cap for easy inspection of the coolant level.

 

Wheels & tires

Lightweight aluminum hubs are laced to black anodized, aluminum rims using strong spokes to create a reliable set of wheels. Complete with Maxxis Maxxcross MX-ST tires, young riders will enjoy the benefits of excellent traction and predictability across a wide range of surfaces.
