2011 · Super motard
The 2011 Husaberg FS 570 emerged as a focused contender in the supermotard segment, a category known for its aggressive, track-ready machines. This model represented the culmination of Husaberg's unique engineering philosophy, which often prioritized centralized mass and a distinct forward-inclined engine architecture. In its time, the FS 570 faced direct competition from established players like the KTM 690 SMC R and the Aprilia SXV 550, each vying for supremacy in the specialized world of street-legal dirt bikes with road tires.
At the heart of the FS 570 was a potent 565.50 ccm (34.51 cubic inches) single-cylinder, four-stroke engine. This robust powerplant was designed for immediate throttle response and strong pull throughout the rev range, characteristic of supermotard motorcycles. Despite its considerable displacement, the bike maintained an impressive dry weight of just 114.5 kg (252.4 pounds), contributing significantly to its agile handling. Fuel capacity stood at 8.50 litres (2.25 gallons), a typical volume for a bike in this category, balancing range with the need for a compact chassis. The raw power and light weight ensured the FS 570 was a formidable machine on technical tracks and twisty roads.
Riding the Husaberg FS 570 was an experience defined by its supermotard characteristics. The high, flat seat, set at 895 mm (35.2 inches) (if adjustable, this is the lowest setting), provided an aggressive, upright stance, allowing riders to easily shift their weight for cornering. The narrow profile and high ground clearance were ideal for flicking the bike from side to side. While not designed for long-distance touring, the ergonomics were perfectly suited for short, intense rides, whether on a closed course or navigating urban environments. Its sharp handling and powerful brakes were crucial for its intended purpose.
The Husaberg FS 570 was primarily aimed at experienced riders and supermotard enthusiasts who sought a no-compromise, performance-oriented machine. Its specialized nature and aggressive character meant it wasn't a casual commuter, but rather a tool for those who appreciated its razor-sharp handling and potent single-cylinder punch. For riders looking for a pure, unadulterated supermotard experience with a distinct lineage, the 2011 FS 570 offered a compelling, albeit demanding, proposition.
