So it appears to be a KTM SX (linkage), with berg subframe (non metal / different shape) and a few things slapped on to make it branded husky. About what all the speculation brought us too. Will be interesting.
[/quote] No the MXGP MX3 class is closed for 2014 it will be the "MX300" or something like that name. The race bikes will all be 300 2 strokes, marketing to get more brands to the gate and for less expensive racing for the MX3 class racer teams. So basically in modern terms we will have an open class 2 stroke world championship...in the world of 300cc instead of 500s.
Not a "New" bike but seems to be a good collection of parts from KTM and Berg. My guess is the price will be pretty high. But a 300cc 2 Stroke MX class is going to be awesome!
for MXoN I dont think they will include the FIM MXGP MX3-0-0 as an option, I think they will keep it MX1 MX2 and "open" as it is now. The Main classes for MXGP in 2014 are MX1 MX2 with MX 3-0-0 (my name for it) as a side show, kinda like MX3 has been over the last years anyway. Hopefully the new 300 class will bring in more participation from the offroad enduro companies as well for more brands at the gate
Take a berg, paint the frame white, toss the KTM SX linkage on and slap some new stickers on it and wow and all new bike. I'm 99% (and hoping) the production "husky" will not have CF subframe.
So finally it's released -> New HUSKY ----> KTM/BERG with linkage... am i suprised........hmmmmmm NOT !. But anyway looking fine.
I sold my 2008 KTM 250 XC in late August, and flirted with the idea of getting a GG, Beta or Husaberg 300. Now, my mind is made up -- I'm going with the "KTM/Berg" Husqvarna 300.
I'm a die hard husky rider and a local mx A rider here in NY and all I have to say is husqvarna is going to stay alive and I can't wait to get my hands on one of these!
