1973 Husqvarna WITHOUT RESERVATION The domination of the Swedish brand Husqvarna in the 60s and 70s resulted in 14 world titles in motocross and 24 in enduro. The Baja 1000, won 11 times during this period, was another test of the reliability of the brand's engines and the robustness of its machines. The 250 engines are renowned in all off-road categories and will become the reference. Who better to promote the brand than Steve McQueen, who abandoned Triumph in favor of the Swedish brand, seduced by its light engines that do not put performance aside. The pre-1975 models were distinguished by their straight rear shocks, which were replaced that year by slanting versions. This first version embodies the glory days of the brand and is still strongly associated with the American actor, icon of a whole generation. This 1973 model is presented for sale in good original condition, so you can fully exploit its still resourceful engine off the beaten track. 5 000 / 7 000 € Sold without reserve price 1973 Husqvarna The domination of the Swedish brand Husqvarna in the 60s and 70s resulted in 14 world titles in motocross and 24 in enduro.
