This motorcycle has a very interesting history. it was owned and raced by two huge stars. Motocross World Champion Bengt Aberg and Hollywood Icon Steve Mcqueen.
Experts say Steve McQueen bought this Husky from Bengt Aberg right after he won a race on it in Santa Cruz. CA. making it McQueen's very first Husqvarna. where it all began. This is the bike that made him switch from racing Triumph's to Husky's. starting his passion for the brand. culminating with the movie On Any Sunday where he rode a Husky catapulting the brand to a huge success in sales worldwide.
This is a museum piece. or a centerpiece for a very special collection.
Lately we've seen in the news some houses decorated with cars and motorcycles as art. In that case. this bike would be a Picasso!
Bike went through a recent year-long restoration. no expenses spared. Feel free to ask questions.
