Husqvarna moves into the north of England

A leading dealership in the north of England has taken on the Husqvarna range of enduro, racing and motocross bikes.

Colin Appleyard celebrated the new relationship earlier in the month with a 2015 Husqvarna model launch.

One of only 16 franchise holders in the UK, Colin Appleyard in Keighley is looking to reinforce its position as the “go-to centre for both road and sports motorcyclists in the north”.

“We’re absolutely delighted to team up with Husqvarna,” says Robin Appleyard, pictured. “We already support enduro and motocross in a big way, and it’s a true honour to hold the regional franchise.”

Founded in 1970 by Colin Appleyard OBE, the business is now a large regional employer with 115 staff across six branches in the north of England, selling both cars and motorcycles.
