KTM--Husky........same company?
 

I was just talking to a friend of mine on-line that rides a KTM and he says that KTM bought out Husky a couple of years ago, is that true? If so how come nobody here has mentioned it. At least Nobrakes.......Brian did you know this? I'm confused.:eek:

KTM bought Husaberg. I think BMW bought Husqvarna.

Your right Brian, he just said so, that was a close one:D He got the names mixed up, so I guess this thread should disappear before I embarrass myself even more.[8D][8D][8D]

I'm sure Jack Penton is rolling in his grave. (He was the pioneer of killer dirt bikes back in the 60's, which then became KTM.) Anybody on this site have a Penton? I used to DROOOL over their bikes. The Jackpiner? THAT was a bike.

Oh, did I mention he was from Ohio? ;)

Check the new 2009 Husaberg FE450 - truly a work of art. Husaberg is back! I hope some of the technology finds its way into the KTM lines. I'm thinking maybe KTM is using Husaberg as their high end R&D branch now and they will cherry pick the technology and put it into the higher production volume KTMs once it's been proven out in the 'Bergs.
