Anyone seen this Husky before?

Husqvarna Trial Bike

View attachment 6224

never seen one, but years ago, i was going to build a Husky trials bike..AHRMA dissed me, so it got canned.

I just thought I had seen every Husky! WOW!

Very rare. Did that 325 vr model ever make it out of Sweden?

It looks like I found the same web page.

Google translation:

"French is hardly better, but it seems to be well, Thomas Gustavsson's old endurohoj that?
That was one of the first four-strokes as Husqvarna tested that came with -82, and as he drove on if I'm not completely out?"

There is at least one more trials bike they built before this one, late 60's I think. In one of the Husqvarna reports is where I might have seen it.

Couldn't it be this one you read about?

Small (Free) translation from the article:
"The motor is based on the 1972 250cc motor equipped with a special cylinder and head. Stroke = 64,5mm, Bore = 78,75mm"

Late sixties, early seventies - the memory becomes blurred over the years, you could ask me I suffer from it

I'm not sure they ever made more than this one on the picture.
Åke Sandqvist at R&D made this bike.

i belive John Le Fever built one as well.
heres my 82 4 stroke.

I overlooked the obvious. A 4-stroke early 1970's trials bike. I believe they would have been as rare, as loc-ness

Issue #12 Husqvarna Report

Interetsting reading, thanks

But these bikes was built by people outside the factory

rumor has it Husky HVA played with the idea of a trials bike, but canned it, for reasons unknown, that bike pictured may be one of the bikes made.
what i was planning on..
69-71 frame. 250ccWR round case 4 speed.
change the steering head angle, small single seat, OSSA MAR flywheel, super low front sprocket, 72 tooth rear sprocket, small Mikuni carb..custom pipe, to keep low end up,
what i wanted to do is build a bike to ride the AHRMA classic class.
says...175CC sachs, or 250cc Spanish 4 speeds. Bultaco, Montesa, and OSSA..
sooo....i figured a right hand shift 4 speed Husky 250cc, detuned, for a trials bike...
AHRMA..well..were going with MX rules here,will have to be a split frame...or run that in the Modern Classic class...
so i shitcanned the project..no way, would i be able to compete on the expert line with that bike, on the MC class...more closed minded idea,s from AHRMA..go figure.
i didnt want to ruin a split frame Husky to build a trials bike, when thousands of 69-71 clapped out bikes are lying around...and nobody races them...
