These are from the European site, not sure if we will get the same models per se. Looks like the 450 EXC is a single cam engine while the Six Days model is a twin cam engine.
Here's a key spec on the 450 EXC: Carburetor: Keihin EFI, flow restrictor 42 mm
Cedric, that's the European EXC bike which some say are closer to the XCW. Rumour mill is saying XC will have linkage also. Dirt Rider had that this month but only a picture of the SX.
True DB, the Euro 350 EXC on that site does not have a linkage, while the North American 350 XC does. So who know, it's all just speculation at this point I guess. I also heard a rumor that the Husaberg 2Ts will land in Canada next year. Can anybody confirm/deny that?
I have owned bikes with linkage, and bikes without (ie ktm's). In my experience the linkage is less maintanence.
Also, the linkage will only catch on rocks and logs if the center connection ( between the wishbone arms where the shock attaches) protrudes below the wishbone arms. A close look at the different designs availabe will clearly show that some linkage systems will catach while other will not. My Husky would catch on logs and rocks, but my Gasgas does not.

Yep, thats confirmed. 2012 model year for Husaberg 2T from Husaberg NA, so they will be available later this year.
It's not a big deal 37, no harder than changing wheel bearings, costs about $40. I have cobbled up some tools to make it easier, let me know when you need 'em.
kinda makes ya think that DI on a 2t dirtbike is NEVER gonna happen...
