Vehicle Information
Husqvarna WMX 250 Dirt Bike (1990)
The 1990 Husqvarna WMX 250 was an off-road motocross motorcycle, powered by a 249cc single-cylinder, two-stroke, liquid-cooled engine producing approximately 17 horsepower. During this era, Husqvarna typically offered distinct models for different riding disciplines, such as the WMX 250 for motocross, rather than multiple trim levels for a single model. The WMX 250 was considered a "Base" model, signifying a standard configuration. The 1990 model year falls within a significant transitional period for Husqvarna, marked by its acquisition by the Italian manufacturer Cagiva. This led to notable mid-cycle changes, including the integration of Cagiva-influenced engine designs. For instance, engines in related 250cc models featured components like the Cagiva Torque System. This shift in production and branding, occurring from 1989 to 1991, made parts availability particularly challenging. Q: Is this part compatible with my Husqvarna WMX 250 model?
