Husqvarna Mobility is excited to reveal its 2026 dual-sport line-up, consisting of the FE 350s and FE 501s models, offering best-in-class performance on any terrain. Both machines will begin to arrive at authorized Husqvarna Mobility dealerships starting fall of 2025.
The competition-derived, street-legal range includes an extensive list of race-tested components, delivering unmatched ridability and build quality. For 2026, new graphics, radiator shrouds, rear fender, and fork guards highlight the visual updates, while a fuel line protector improves durability, and a redesigned fuel tank shape maximizes fuel consumption.
Several technical updates have been made to the WP XACT Closed Cartridge forks for improved suspension performance.

Complementing the updates, new compression and rebound settings have been introduced to the forks, as well as to the WP XACT rear shock, to retain chassis balance and refine the overall handling of each machine.

Suzuki’s on a Hot Streak, Returning to AIMExpo in Anaheim
Suzuki Motor USA, the only OEM to exhibit at AIMExpo every year since its inception in 2013, will once again have a major presence at the 2026 event in Anaheim, California, January 7–9. Suzuki will be just beyond the Starting Line, so all show attendees will see its latest models of motorcycles and ATVs as they enter the show.
“We’re proud to have been part of AIMExpo since the very beginning,” said Chase Rastegar, Communications Manager. “It’s a reflection of our commitment to meeting dealers where they are and staying accessible for the conversations that matter most. Strong relationships are at the heart of our brand, and AIMExpo gives us the chance to strengthen those connections and build new ones. We look forward to seeing familiar faces and meeting potential new dealers in Anaheim.”
Among Suzuki’s display will be the recently introduced GSX-8T and GSX-8TT, two of the latest Suzuki models that boast “Retro Styling, Next Generation Performance.” Alongside these two new introductions, Suzuki will have a lineup of motorcycle and ATV models that span a variety of riding styles, meeting the needs of today’s riders and dealers. Suzuki recognizes AIMExpo as a platform to get new products in front of their U.S. dealers, therefore, it’s committed to showing as many new models as possible at the show.
AIMExpo is another great place for dealers to get information about Suzuki Genuine Accessories. With many new items added yearly to its accessory catalog, Suzuki representatives will be at the show to answer questions and discuss options for your dealership.
“Suzuki has been with AIMExpo since day one,” said Cinnamon Kernes, MIC Vice President of Market Expansion. “Their commitment to the show reflects their commitment to the industry, and we’re proud to honor that dedication by making AIMExpo a place where their dealer relationships can grow year after year.”
AIMExpo, North America’s largest powersports tradeshow, brings together manufacturers, dealers, aftermarket brands, and industry leaders for three days of exhibits, education, and networking. The 2026 show will take place at the Anaheim Convention Center, just ahead of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season opener at Angel Stadium.
LeMans Revs Up AIMExpo Return with Dealer Incentives, Customs Showcase, Free Coffee
LeMans Corporation, a top powersports industry distributor, is making a high-impact return to AIMExpo for the show’s 2026 debut in Anaheim, California. The company will sponsor free coffee for attendees, offer exclusive dealer incentives, and anchor its exhibit with the iconic Drag Specialties semi.
AIMExpo, taking place January 7–9 at the Anaheim Convention Center, also coincides with the launch of the Monster Energy AMA Supercross season at nearby Angel Stadium. The timing underscores the industry’s momentum heading into the new year.
“A shared passion is one of the outstanding things that makes this industry great,” said Cinnamon Kernes, Vice President of Market Expansion at the Motorcycle Industry Council, which hosts AIMExpo. “When an event brings together the people, the brands, and the products of our industry, and adds the element of learning and networking, it’s an opportunity that can’t be missed.”
LeMans’s presence will be front and center at the show. Just inside the main entrance, The Starting Line will offer complimentary coffee, sponsored by Drag Specialties and Parts Unlimited. Nearby, the LeMans exhibit will showcase custom motorcycles and new product displays.
“At LeMans Corporation, we’re stepping up to ensure the powersports industry thrives,” said Paul Devine, Vice President of Sales & Marketing, LeMans Corporation. “By partnering with AIMExpo and becoming the exclusive coffee sponsor, we’re not only fueling dealer engagement – we’re also amplifying our brand presence as Supercross kicks off just blocks away.”
The collaboration between the MIC, AIMExpo, and LeMans extends beyond Anaheim. At the upcoming Parts NVP show in Milwaukee this September, the organizations will partner to give away 10 free MIC Dealer Memberships, underscoring a shared commitment to dealer success and cross-industry engagement. And the 2026 NVP Product Expo kicks off in Louisville just two weeks after AIMExpo.
“AIMExpo is a strong complement to our 2025 show and 2026 NVP Product Expo in Louisville,” Devine said. “The events give us a chance to support and bring together our dealers, a mission that’s at the heart of everything we do.”
