well i think it's bad news but it would appear that David Larsson has left Husaberg. an automated reply came through from him saying that he had gone on Holiday but was finishing with Husaberg with effect from July 1st.
He's steered Husaberg in the right direction and now they have a great range of bikes aimed at the right end of the market. Perhaps some of the Swedes here know his full Husaberg history?
while on about strategy/politics: I think it's Boatian or some such that are buying as much KTM as they can get but stefan perer and his partner are hanging on to 51% of the shares still. KTM are back making massive profits after heavy loses last year and they decided to introduce new shares in the company to raise more capital this spring.
this is why KTM are keen to get into the Indian market and help Boatian make bikes in India as I can see. as usual I don't hold the details to hand so don't quote me on every nuance....
