WOODCLIFF LAKE — In response to customer and dealer demand, Husqvarna Motorcycles NA extended its Hero Deals 4.99 percent retail sales promotion until July 1, 2009. Hero Deals offers two customer purchase options: 4.99 percent financing backed by BMW Financial Services, or a $1,000 factory cash discount.

"Both Hero Deals options represent a fantastic value for motorcycle shoppers so we want to make sure that customers are made aware of this opportunity," said Scot Harden, Husqvarna's sales and marketing manager.

"There are 16 different models to choose from including motocross, cross country, enduro, supermoto and the widest selection of high-performance dual-purpose bikes on the market," noted Harden. "Because of this extensive collection of new models, Husqvarna will continue to be the first choice for the rapidly growing community of discriminating off-road riders."

Husqvarna's presence throughout North America and around the world has expanded rapidly in 2009 thanks to the brand's highly successful racing efforts, its expanded media outreach, comprehensive advertising programs and a deeper commitment to its customers. With added resources and support from parent company BMW, all 2009 Husqvarna motorcycles benefit from a wide array of features and technical enhancements that elevate them to the highest levels of quality and performance.

"Paired with the value of our Hero Deals financing offer, there really has never been a better time than right now to purchase a new Husky," concluded Harden.
