Husqvarna to Sponsor AMA Hall of Fame Ceremony

Renown motorcycle manufacturer Husqvarna has been confirmed as a sponsor of the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, due to be held this December at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

Husqvarna Motorcycles North America Sales and Marketing Director Scot Harden, an accomplished off-road racer who was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2008, said that the company is proud to be sponsoring the event.

The 2009 AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony is part of a larger celebration at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas that includes the AMA Racing Championship Banquet and the 2009 AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Concours d'Elegance, which will feature some of the most beautiful motorcycles today.

In addition, special awards, such as the AMA Racing Athlete of the Year, the AMA Racing Sportsman of the Year and the AMA Racing Female Rider of the Year, will be presented.

Following the Concours d'Elegance on Saturday, Perry King, famous stage, screen and TV actor, will serve as master of ceremonies as the AMA officially welcomes the 2009 class to the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame.

We presented you this year’s inductees one by one in June and, as you remember, Class of 2009 feature industry innovator Robert Bates, off-road racer Randy Hawkins, suspension pioneer Gilles Vaillancourt, off-highway rights activist Mona Ehnes, industry entrepreneurs and technological trailblazers Geoff and Bob Fox, longtime motorcycle safety proponent David Hough, noted race team manager Gary Mathers and successful dirt-track racer and tuner Chuck Palmgren.
