    After only two short years Barrett Marketing Group, the Canadian distributor for Husqvarna motorcycles, has filed for bankruptcy under Section 243 of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act . Husqvarna North America will be talking over the distribution of the motorcycles in approximately 30 days.

    "It's left us in a bit of a tight spot," Scott Rocher of Ross Rocher Sales, one of the largest Husky dealer in Canada had to say on Monday. "I was on the phone with the president of Husqvarna USA for over two hours on Thursday. He's a really good guy. I think in the long run it's going to be better for Canadian Husky riders." 

    Scott is the owner of Ross Rocher Sales in Stratford, Ontario, one of the largest Husqvarna dealerships in Canada. Having been one of the first dealers in the country, Rochers has saved itself some headache during the transition time. "I will have access to the North American warehouse later this week."

   Inside MotoX & Off Road will keep an eye on this story as it is bound to have massive repercussions throughout the Canadian off road world with several top tier off road riders, including IMX backed ISDE rider Amber Giroux, aboard the red and whites.
