From the NETRA facebook page. "We apologize but we will NOT be participating in the KTM and Husqvarna contingency program through XTRM Network, at this time. XTRM Network is a pay service that charges the organization and its members a monthly or yearly fee to use the service. We will look to KTM and Husqvarna to see if there is a better alternative to receive contingency rewards for our members. Sorry for the confusion and any inconvenience." It was posted March 15, 2013 Contingency was one of the biggest reasons I bought a Husky one week before this mergerer. Ed
Ed, Husky hasn't been through Xtrim for awhile, as it was taken back in house at Husky NA. The fact that Husky NA will cease to exist in it's present form, doesn't bode well for the program. NETRA statement is inaccurate for Husky, but the point may be moot.
Norm, Understand that it is/was in house. I am sure if with KTM NA they continuey the contingency program for Husky it will be adminstered they same way KTM does.
I just got my tee shirt and a letter from J Parker this week after i put in for contingency. Came from Husky N.America.
I've been wondering this and waiting for accurate info from a credible source. I'll be pretty chapped if there isn't a contingency program or they don't honor the exhisting program.....
Cause Jenna doesn't put the money in the bank.....just cuts the checks.....how would she know what the future holds?
As of Friday there had been no change in the Contingency program when we checked, and we are continuing to race and submit results until told otherwise. http://www.husqvarna-motorcyclesna.com/contingency.php
Submitted claim on Monday - got it today. Good thru 12/31/2013. This is one of the coolest things about Husky. I made as much in Husky bucks last year as I spent in entries and gas. Used the money on new plastics and sprockets, etc. The plastics aren't horribly expensive. Pretty smart on Huskies part too - a good looking bike is good advertising for them.
The new owners will honor contingency for sure. They wont make the same mistake that BMW Canada did by not honouring CDN contingency with BMG went broke.
