    Next week is the opening round in Fla.


    ''The Factory Husqvarna team has been busy getting their race bikes ready to go this week. Joey Maurer is actually working out of the RidePG shop in North Carolina to stay close to the racing over the next several weeks and has been hard at work getting everything ready for this weekend’s National Enduro, and the opening GNCC next weekend. The Husky guys just have to do a little last minute testing on the race bikes to fine tune where they want their bars, levers, etc., and they’ll be good to go.

    It’s definitely cool to see a full factory effort by Husqvarna. While it’s unfortunate that it won’t be through F.A.R, which ran the Husky effort the past few years, those heavily involved with that effort will still be around with Fred Andrews coming on as KR4’s team manager and I mentioned Joey Maurer working with the Factory Husqvarna team. It’s a great team, and the bikes look super sharp. And yes, I have ridden one, and yes, they’re darn good motorcycles. Most people have the misconception that it’s only a re-labeled Husaberg, which is basically just a blue and yellow KTM, but that’s not entirely true. While they do share a lot of characteristics, the Husqvarna is definitely it’s own motorcycle, and definitely a lot of fun to ride.''



    I wondered were Joey landed, good deal!!

    offroadchampions.com did an interview with Andrew and he mentioned that Joey had transferred over to the new Husky Team. Good news indeed!
