For 2021 Husqvarna Motorcycles has focused on further improving suspension performance and handling by adding a new mid-valve damping system to the WP XACT forks with AER technology, for increased rider comfort on landings as well as reducing pressure peaks for consistent damping performance. Additionally, new low-friction linkage seals offer refined suspension response on the WP XACT shock.

Opening a whole new era of motorcycle performance tuning, the app enables riders to adjust their engine mapping and gives recommendations for the optimum suspension setting.

Among the list of several adjustment options the highlights are the two main Engine modes, Prime and Advanced which allow riders of all levels to fine-tune their engine’s performance according to their riding requirements and track conditions.
