    In the 70's Husky helmets didn't have a lot of bling. Mikkola-Blue, Howerton-Yellow w/Number, Sun-Yellow w/Large Husqvarna symbol, Lackey-Blue w/ ISDT white skunk stripes, Carlquist-Blue. Just like the bikes and the riders; clean and all business.

    Left coast,

    here's a picture out of the 81 Husky Accessorys brochure, i can
    honestly say i've never seen one though

    I remember Husky started selling similiar ones again in early 2001?,
    AGV made them 2 colors to pick from, Blue/Yellow & White/Yellow
    if i remember right? They had the "H" like the old ones. I went to
    order one but they were out of stock, never saw them since.

    I'd say they'd bring a pretty penny if you could find one :eek:.

    Later

    ruwfo!

    That's a great picture from the past, much better that the "bling-bling" designed helmets you can buy today.
    retro design goes back to the future .......

    Kinda unrelated but I have been getting some of my Husky stuff like decals and such thru the power equipment division. Friends of ours have the Western Auto store which sells Husky lawn,garden,chainsaws. Some of the decals on that equipment are very nice. I also bought the "forestry bag" for my riding gear, $70. Prices are a little cheaper when its work related instead of recreation. She is getting me a price on the nice blue/white Husqvarna carpet 5ftX8ft they have in the showroom. look alot better with my bike on it than a mower.

    I purchased this helmet size m for the grandson. His next bike maybe a husky boy.

    I purchased the newer Husqvarna helmet xxl from eBay they are a tad tight. A little narrow. I took it the padding and installed a soccer ball and let it swell up a little.
