Looks like a 2014 Husqvarna, I think they all come from the same factory, and rebadged.

Hey, you be careful, I like the 2014 Husky!! They might come from the KTM stocks now, but at least they exist. If KTM didn't buy them, they would have gone bust by 2016 IMO!

And, this is coming from a man who likes Husqvarna!! Hang your head in shame!!!!!!

I was looking through there bike range & didn't see a mxer listed  ??? then I watched the clip,they must be good things if they have to use a Honda for there Shineray factory rider ;),I dont blame him though,they could put any of the bikes from Japan inc,KTM or Husky in front of me rebadge it & call it the Onelongturd 450 & I would still race it if they copped the bill ;D

Believe it or not they are actually quite a good bike.I bought one brand new from DDR it was called a DDR mx200,looked the same as a crf100 and just as reliable but about twice the weight.We had it for around 18 months never had a problem with it and when I finally sold it the bike had sat in the garage for about 3 months so I thought I better make sure it still starts the only thing then was the battery went flat,but with stale fuel and 3 kicks and off it went ;D.
