2012 Husaberg TE300 Torque Specs: Big-Bore Two-Stroke Enduro Reference
Shop parts for a 2012 Husaberg TE300 Dirt Bike.
The 2012 Husaberg TE300 is a 293cc two-stroke enduro machine that offers more mid-range torque and power than the TE250, making it a favored choice for older, more experienced enduro riders and those tackling varied terrain where the extra displacement makes a meaningful difference. The TE300's two-stroke engine uses the same forward-inclined chassis architecture as the rest of the Husaberg line, and its fastener specifications reflect the unique demands of a competition big-bore two-stroke.
Engine Torque Specs
The TE300's larger bore and increased combustion pressure compared to the TE250 require slightly higher cylinder head clamping force. Two-stroke cylinder service intervals should be tracked by hours of use, not just calendar time—the TE300 in competition use can require top-end service more frequently than riders accustomed to four-strokes expect.
| Fastener | Torque (ft-lb) | Torque (Nm) |
|---|---|---|
| Spark plug | 18–22 | 24–30 |
| Cylinder head bolts | 22–26 | 30–35 |
| Cylinder base bolts | 18–22 | 24–30 |
| Flywheel nut | 36–43 | 49–58 |
| Clutch hub nut | 36–43 | 49–58 |
Suspension & Chassis
The 2012 TE300's WP suspension handles the additional mass and power of the larger two-stroke with stiffer spring rates than the TE250. Fork clamp torque values are the same across both models, but the TE300's higher power delivery makes correct lower clamp torque more critical for fork leg retention under hard acceleration.
| Fastener | Torque (ft-lb) | Torque (Nm) |
|---|---|---|
| Fork clamp bolts — upper triple clamp | 11–15 | 15–20 |
| Fork clamp bolts — lower triple clamp | 15–19 | 20–26 |
| Handlebar clamp bolts | 18–22 | 24–30 |
| Swingarm pivot bolt | 54–61 | 73–83 |
| Rear shock upper mount | 29–36 | 39–49 |
| Rear shock lower mount | 29–36 | 39–49 |
| Shock linkage bolts | 29–36 | 39–49 |
Wheels, Brakes & Drivetrain
The 2012 TE300's wheel and brake hardware shares specifications with the TE250 and FE series. Thread locker on disc bolts and sprocket fasteners, correct axle nut torque, and a post-event hardware check are the core maintenance practices for keeping the TE300 tight and reliable throughout a season.
| Fastener | Torque (ft-lb) | Torque (Nm) |
|---|---|---|
| Front axle nut | 36–43 | 49–58 |
| Rear axle nut | 47–54 | 64–73 |
| Rear sprocket bolts | 22–29 | 30–39 |
| Chain adjuster lock nuts | 18–22 | 24–30 |
| Front caliper mounting bolts | 18–22 | 24–30 |
| Front brake disc bolts | 14–17 | 19–23 |
| Rear caliper mounting bolts | 18–22 | 24–30 |
| Rear brake disc bolts | 14–17 | 19–23 |
