    I currently don't know much about this but I had 2 text messages from an Italian number I don't know today with links to the site:

    http://www.couragenotincluded.com

    Some cool videos on there! More info when available...

    I must be missing something on that site……but for the life of me I don’t understand; where is the connection to Husqvarna on that site ???
    Is it like a game that you need to play or something ?
    It’s just a bunch of videos, not even bike related…

    What am I missing ?

    What's going to happen in 56 days?

    Not sure either on what's happening in 56 days, but I do know that there are some awesome videos. Some of those big surf clips were just miles from where I grew up on Maui.

    I think the marketing team dropped the ball on this one....the message is totally lost, unless you're into windsurfing?

    what???
    my guess would be the new 450 release, but that site makes no sense.

    Maybe you have to be Italian to get it?

    A little more information has come to light - this is part of the build up to the launch of the new 450. The countdown is for the European press launch which (by my maths) will be 19th July and more content will be added to the site as time progresses.

    Its a kind of 'watch this space' situation currently!

    I noticed they gave a level of courage to each video, but no 10CQ video yet :P could it be they do some video contest too?

    Not sure I could get all worked up over another 450 four stroke, especially with a BMW (sort of) engine. Now a 450 2 stroke would take some guts to race!

    It says there are 29 days left... but the 29th day from today will be july 24th or 25th... what are you talking about saying 19th? :)
    and i wonder why they still didn't add anything on the site...

    Maybe the website can't count...*

    I found it disappointing anyway. I think they'd be much better off having a site you could actually see was about the new bike - if you aren't observant you might not notice it's even related to Husky (and certainly not to bikes). I'd rather it was made obvious what the purpose was, and ideally release a tasty morsel of information (e.g. how many speeds in the gearbox) and a new close-up picture from time to time, just to keep people coming back to the site and build the anticipation.

    Mind you, I'm only a potential customer for the new bike and not a highly paid marketing consultant, so I've probably just missed the point. :doh: Maybe someone can explain it? :thinking: Maybe something was lost in the translation from Italian? :excuseme:

    that's the best thing they could do, unveiling new details and info day by day to entertain and make you want to go back to the site to discover more... it should be clear but maybe it's not :P

    I hope this was due to the fact that the site was made last month and that since we're now closer to the launch they'll add something!
