TEAM HUSQVARNA PROVES STICKS AND STONES WON'T BREAK THEIR BONES IN NINTH ROUND OF GNCC RACING SERIES

Veteran Scott Summers Wins Eighth in a Row

Woodcliff Lake, NJ - July 9, 2008... Team Husqvarna traveled to Somerset, PA,
July 5-6, for the ninth round of the GNCC racing series - Geico Mountain
Ridge. The course was the rockiest yet with ATV parts scattered about from
Saturday's race. Despite the rugged terrain, the Husqvarna bikes prevailed
over another three-hour test and reached the checkered flag.

Husqvarna Team rider Glenn Kearney finished 7th in the XC1 Pro Class and 8th
overall, while teammate Gordon Crockard finished 14th in the Pro Class. Team
Manager and five-time GNCC Champion Scott Summers posted his eighth straight
win in a row on a Husqvarna TXC 510 in the Vet A (30+) Class, once again
proving the Huskys reliable and consistent in the most rocky conditions.

Team Husqvarna will return to the Keystone State in two weeks for Round 4 of
the AMA Eastern National Hare Scrambles Series.

Husqvarna Motorcycles NA, LLC -- part of BMW (US) Holding Corp. - announced a
return to off-road racing competition earlier this year, after reaching an
agreement with Scott Summers, Inc. to provide a professional race team to
compete in the GNCC Racing Series. The riders pilot 2008 Husqvarna TXC 450
off-road models in the GNCC's XC1 class.

Crockard, of Burlington, KY, is enjoys doing battle against the best GNCC
riders in the world. The 29-year-old former World Motocross Champion contender
participated with Jean-Francois Goblet and Anders Erickson in an Öhlins
suspension test in southern Spain, prior to arriving in America for the start
of his debut season in the GNCC series, which attracts riders from the United
States, Europe, Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

Kearney, of Hickory, NC, rose to prominence as an off-road racer in Australia,
riding for the factory Yamaha team and earning top spots on the WR250F in
several series. In the U.S., the 26-year-old Australian Enduro Champion, has
proven to be one of the hardest working riders in the GNCC series, adhering to
a grueling training program and possessing considerable heart and determination
on the track.

Scott Summers, one of the most celebrated off-road racers of our time, is
partnering with Husqvarna after racing very successfully for American Honda for
nearly two decades.

During his time with Honda, he earned nearly 100 overall national off-road
event wins as well as 9 AMA Championships (five in the brutally competitive
GNCC series and four in the far-reaching National Hare Scrambles Series.
During his career, Summers did much more than win races and titles. He
successfully transitioned from his role as a professional athlete to that of a
businessman and the owner of his own race team. Since then, Summers has
mentored other young up-and-coming racers, helping them understand what it
takes to win at the highest level of the sport. During the 2007 GNCC Series,
the most competitive Off-Road Championship in the world, Summers Racing earned
podium finishes in 25% of the championship rounds.

Team Husqvarna sponsors include Axo, Spectro, Pirelli, Wiseco, Tireballs, Arai,
Scott, EK Chain, Twin Air, UFO, Tag, Mechanix Wear, Holeshot Motorsports,
Powersports Grafx, CTI, LeoVince, DP Brakes, and Cycra.

The AMA/ATVA-sanctioned Can-Am Grand National Cross Country Series is America's
premier off-road racing series and one of the most physically demanding sports
in the world. The riders must navigate rugged terrain such as woods, mud, dirt,
rocks and jumps for nearly three hours, while racing against the best talent in
the world. The 13-round race series stretches through the eastern US, starting
with the season-opener in Melbourne, FL in March and concluding with the
season-finale in Crawfordsville, IN in October. Upwards of 1,500 racers compete
at each GNCC round and the race action draws several thousand fans each weekend
as well as a loyal following on television.
