So the first "Austria" Husqvarna dealer meeting for the US is Sunday and Monday. I can't tell you anymore about what is happening with Husqvarna than what you already know. Hopefully after this weekend there will be some news about the future. My gut feeling is KTM has big plans for Husqvarna. BTW I am not offically a dealer yet but its in the works.
Interesting. One of my riding buddies (a salesman at the local KTM dealer) is headed to their dealer meeting, same place, Monday and Tuesday.
aha I thought it was sunday at ca hw eeee ya, so mon and tues.....prob mon dealers day tues dealers and press day.
A few pics from the new headquarters opening that was part of the dealer meeting. http://www.vitalmx.com/features/Breaking-In-The-New-Husqvarna,3495
Mike Brown has been the race anywhere, race anything, utility player for KTM in the past, and he's now made the move over to Husqvarna. If they can get the homologation details dialed before Glen Helen, don't be too surprised if he debuts the new Husqvarna at the first round of the Lucas Oil Pro Motocross Championship at Glen Helen. That and the dualsport news above makes me optimistic.
Went out to ca hw eeee ya Sunday to crash the party. Even got all dressed up in my best Italian suit.
Cant wait to order some official Husqvarna scissors from the catalogue. I hope shipping doesnt kill me.
Heard Cahuilla, but could've been the Ranch. why not? The Ranch almost never open. I don't get the fascination w/the place. Still, I'll be there on the 22nd to cheer on my CalVet MX buddies. I dunno, maybe the meeting was supposed to be a secret and not a promo type of gig.
It was for the dealers, not the public. I love The Ranch because it has the Carlsbad Replica track, which I enjoy riding on. There is also lots of other tracks to ride on, as well as a certain amount of singletrack.
As of late Cahuilla has been epic (yup, I said "epic"). Still, would've been cool to crash the party on an "Italian" Husky.
yep. and 2 moro we will be at our "ranch" will have my hcam for this little private test sesh wooo hoo!!
we rode the carlsbad replica track which is fun.i think cahuilla would have ended up with too many dealers in the emergency room!Cahuilla is on my list of things to do before I cant do it any more.the off road section was not very interesting at all.it got beat to death in about a half hour.the bike that had the longest line all day to ride was the tc 125 motocrosser.I rode it twice and was having a ball on it.the off road bike that seemed to get the most favorable comments was the fe 501.Yes,the new bikes were pretty!unfortunately I could not bring any back with me.Dan
You gotta hit up Cahuilla - it's da bomb! And, I'm not just saying that because it's my local track either. But, then again, so is the Ranch. Lately the dirt at Cahuilla has been awesome!
