I was trying to figure out who Husky(KTM) might have contest the outdoors and couldn't really come up with anyone.
I think once the silly season has begun they will move one of their KTM guys over there (Dungey or Musquin). But who knows? Maybe they will offer something to a guy like Paulin? He has said he would like to race in America.
It should be interesting, and I think it's only a matter of time before there is a white KTM with some Scandinavian graphics out there.

The Shop
My guess is two factory teams, KTM with Dungey and Roczen and one guy per coast in the 250's and Husqvarna with one guy in 450 and two in 250.
Then BTO satellite KTM and Rockstar satellite Husqvarna.
Here's the catch though......
Right now it's seems like a great idea to run Huskys. 'They're just white KTM's and KTM's are good' ...... But what happens when the technology makes a split and the bikes are not the same? It's only a matter of time until the bikes aren't identical anymore, and who wants to be a team with an all new bike that will be unproven for the most part?
Maybe KTM will roll out prototype stuff into the husky brand to try it out before mass production on KTM's too?
It should be interesting to see how the company handles the tech split and model differences once the brands aren't clones anymore.
15 models according to my dealer.
