Where did you find that & any info on it? Looks like a late model CR250 to me

Kind of funny that they used a TM to make a mock up CZ:
CZ being known for simple, robust, unglamarous bikes that still worked well.
TM is known for being pretty much the exact opposite...

With the success of the white KTM with Husqvarna on it, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more rebadged bikes.

I'm waiting for a red KTM with Maico on it.

I'm sure we all know of other examples.  Mazda 323 and Ford Laser etc etc.

Like the KLX 400 was just a green DR 400
And the Tedmax was just a rebadged Sexmax ;D

That's not fair. There will never be a 4-stroke SexMax.

The new Husqvarna is a rebadged HUSABERG.....even if they did end up being made by KTM

There will never be a SEXMAX or a TEDMAX or as I prefer to call them the NathanWank and the TedWank.

Same thing the base bike is/was a KTM.  However the Husqvarnas are developing separate to KTM now.

The Husaberg R&D team was always separate to the KTM R&D. The R&D from both Husaberg and Husqvarna have joined forces as far as I know so the new Huskies will be a different animal to the KTM

The 2T Husaberg/Husky/KTM is a damn good thing. Having said that the actual Husky 2T 250 engine is a much stronger engine (awesome enduro engine) than the Berg/Husky/KTM engine. The 5 speed & lack of electric start were minor downsides & only the complete package of the later hybrid bikes made them better. Looking forward to what the 2016 model brings to the Husqvarna table.

For the 7,491st time: Nobody ever wanted to build one. It was a deliberately obnoxious hypothetical to demonstrate a failing in the Evo rules as they are written.
