“With the platform, we will redo some things on the Husaberg models to convert them to Husqvarnas, mainly with the colors, graphics and technical improvements. For motocross we will use the KTM platform and...we will have a very strong competition line for every displacement in motocross, meaning 250, 350 and 450 four-strokes and 125 and 250 two-strokes, plus all the models that Husaberg had for enduro. This will include a 690cc single-cylinder bike. It will be perfect model line, so Husqvarna dealers can survive in the offroad segment. That gives us the chance to have a second distribution line against the Japanese. Husqvarna is strong enough on a global basis to be able to attack the Japanese or to lift the Europeans up against the Japanese; that is the concept.”
