Husqvarna Success by Gunnar Lindstrom
Still a Swedish motorcycle with a worldwide reputation for excellence, even if the company is now owned by famed German car and motorcycle manufacturer, BMW. Most important of all, perhaps, is that the Husky made its fortune in America during the 1960s and '70s winning on the motocross track and in the movie theaters thanks, in part, to Steve McQueen and the seminal movie On Any Sunday. Husqvarna Success is the first history of this iconic brand, period.
Written by one of the Swedes who contributed to its American success in the desert and in the dirt - on Sunday, and in the showroom on Monday - Gunnar Lindstrom, who persuaded both World Champion Torsten Hallman and On Any Sunday co-star, Malcolm Smith, to contribute forewords.
