We have a husky forums, so your best bet is to post your question in the appropriate make/model discussion forum. Scroll down a bit on the forum index page.:thumbsup:
BTW: Husqvarna is the correct spelling :ride:

One of my riding partners just bought a TE 510. He also owns a CRF450R. The TE is about 20 lbs heavier than the CRF but, my partner says the TE feels fairly similar. The TE looks pretty nice and has 50mm Marzzochi forks, Olins rear shock, Brembo brakes, hyd clutch, six speed, and an 18" rear wheel. One small but very cool item is the release for removing the seat. It's a small recessed twist knob in the middle-rear of the seat...out of the way and very convinient. Been think about one of the TE 510's myself.....about $8K out the door for an 07 model.

Beyond the cool factor of the seat release is the fact that you can adjust the valves in less than 20 minutes and rejet the carb in less than 10..:thumbsup:

My first proper bike was a 95 TE350. That bike was so good-tempered and mellow. The left foot kick was a pain.....mainly 'cos I fell off so often. Real easy to work on though.
