Title: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: nathanstott on October 06, 2013, 02,19:39 AM 2014 Husqvarna model range was released today. I'm not that impressed if I wanted a KTM I'd go and buy one. >:(

They look awsome but. And there not running the pds shock system anymore which is interesting. Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: Zeb Colic on October 06, 2013, 03,11:42 AM But how will they ride Nathan , taking the best of three worlds and combining in one might be a good thing ..... Can't see you changing brands so your stuck by the look of it . But if agree being a fan of husky I think it's a sad picture cause it don't look like no husky no more .

Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: nathanstott on October 06, 2013, 03,56:22 AM Sure they look nice and are a tribute to the Swedish Huskys from 1983.

Only the mini bikes have PDS, all the other bikes have the linkage, the same as KTM's XC-W range in the U.S so rear linkage on a KTM isn't that newTitle: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: Dirtpilot72 on October 06, 2013, 07,25:51 AM Get a Sherco and be different.

I'm not that impressed if I wanted a KTM I'd go and buy one. >:( Ha ha Looks like 90% Berg n 6% KTM and 4 % Husky.(http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s439/HuskyNut/image-9.jpg~original) (http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s439/HuskyNut/image-8.jpg~original) (http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s439/HuskyNut/image-10.jpg~original) (http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s439/HuskyNut/image-7.jpg~original) The only thing Husky, looks like the Linkage !! Look at the 2nd Last Photo, " I'm sure it Says KTM under the Footpeg !!! Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: nathanstott on October 06, 2013, 10,04:53 AM 90% Berg??? There is no such thing anymore. The bike you ride is 95% KTM!!!! and so is the bike in the pictures. There is no Husky in that bike, a couple of stickers and a new clutch cover does not make up 6% of a bike.
Husqvarna is dead and so is Husaberg, all we have is KTM's R&D department continuing to dress up KTM's and flog them off as something else. >:( Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: nathanstott on October 06, 2013, 10,16:42 AM This will be my 2014 Husky.
(http://i1051.photobucket.com/albums/s439/HuskyNut/main_1062.jpg~original) A 110th Anniversary TXC310, i will also try to get my hands on a new 449 before they are gone, and with the 2011 TE250 that i have, it will be a while before i ride a KTM.

Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: Willbar on October 12, 2013, 09,26:21 PM Awesome looking bikes not sure about them being dearer than bergs since at the moment they are the cheapest bike in the Aussie market
Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: seano on October 12, 2013, 10,08:57 PM it will be interesting to see if we now have 2 husky dealers in lilydale and in seaford
Title: Re: 2014 Husqvarnas ( if they can be called that ) Post by: Lefty on October 13, 2013, 02,14:31 AM Needed you out there yesterday Nath. Bergs everywhere, only one Husky, mine.
