Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing have announced the addition of Dean Wilson to the 450 class line-up of the Supercross and Pro Motocross team.
The final decision was made this week to welcome former 250 AMA Pro Motocross champ and fan-favorite to the team with hopes of seeing Wilson finish out the 2017 Supercross season with success and head into the 2017 Pro Motocross season prepared to take on the field.
This weekend Wilson will head to Oakland, California for the 5th round of the 2017 Supercross series where he will race on the Husqvarna FC 450 for the first time.
‰ÛÏIt‰Ûªs really exciting. Getting the call from Bobby [Hewitt] was a great moment. I haven‰Ûªt had a good, happy day like that in a long time. I‰Ûªm definitely a lot more appreciative than I‰Ûªve ever been for a ride. I feel like my training is all good and I plan to keep the same preparation and momentum going. The goal is to stay healthy and try to get in the top ten. I want to remain focused, working hard and making the team proud.‰Û
