Looks like a AER cone valve fork with a very production warning sticker on it. ??‍♂️

Not a "Factory Edition"...it's something a bit more Rockstar than that.

You think if they have one they may make it look like the Rockstar Huskys like they make the KTMs look like the RedBull ones?

I think it was Matthes(it might have been someone else, but i read or heard it) that said they will call it the "Rockstar Edition", not Factory Edition.

If you zoom enough you will see product number on that silver sticker...

I'm gonna say possibly not, and more likely a bike built up with all the optional extras sold through Husqvarna to show in the Catalogue (like the KTM Powerparts bike).

I'm certain the 2018.5 Husky Factory/Rockstar Edition 450 that's coming out soon will be the new chassis/motor and all new different bodywork from what i've read (being unveiled Dec 5th maybe). Whereas this bike looks like a normal 2018 with optional extras on? Could be wrong but it'd be disappointing if it was imo.

And why would they when they're smashing the reviews with their air fork that loads of people love?

Husqvarna_usa Instagram story has been posting photos of the riders and bikes' photoshoot today/yesterday. Plenty of pics of the 250s but no sighting of the 450 yet...hmmm

current frame doesn't have steering stoppers on that king of angle and seems radiators are also angled back?

i really hope they dont put the cv aer on the factory bike. that fork is not made for consumers. the constant variation or increase in balance chamber is a nightmare

Can you elaborate? The regular air forks seem to be OK without a lot of hassle, and trust me, I just want to load up and go ride without a lot of extra bullshit, hence why I love spring forks. Half the time I don't even check the tire pressure when I just want to go for a quick ride.

Well the radiator shroud is at a much different angle than the ‘18 so I’d say you’re onto something!
