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.
