Husqvarna Sportsman description

1970 Husqvarna 360 Sportsman raced on the '70 ISDT in Spain by AMA Hall of Fame, the legend John Penton, representing the USA Trophy Team. 

Mr. Penton finished all 6 days of race with 0 points lost/penalties.

Tons of research was done in order to restore this bike to its as-raced condition, from the case-protecting crashbars, the inspection paint tagging of the component parts (wheels, shocks, frame, etc., and the lead-seal linking the head to the cylinder), the hand painted numbers on the metal number plates, additional mudflaps, special factory-provided non-production tail light, Bufo bolts, and Trelleborg tires.

This bike was specially built by Husqvarna for the ISDT, so it doesn't look like any other model of that year, even though it's titled as a Sportsman. Only the top teams had access to those bikes.

 All parts were sandblasted and painted with correct shade of silver, and black. Rims and gas tank were rechromed. Engine was all gone through and bike is in riding condition, although was never started. Never had oil or gas in it because it's stored indoors (no smell).

This bike should be in a museum, not only for its condition but also for its history.

It comes with:

- Original '70 ISDT helmet
- Original & Official 1970 ISDT Race Route Maps
- Original & Official 1970 ISDT Race Info Booklet
- '70 ISDT book (imported from Spain)
- John Penton's book

Bike comes with clear CA title with license plate.

2012 Husqvarna 900 Streetbike Testing

Wed, 15 Jun 2011

Motorcycle manufacturers have a different take on the word “spy”. For most people, when we hear the word “spy”, we picture covert operatives hiding in the shadows, trying to ferret out someone’ top secret information. The OEMs however, seem to use the other definition of “spy”, as in “to observe”.
