I just bought a 1969 360 Sportsman 8 speed. What a fun ride. I had a 1968 250 in 1970 just before the Japanese invasion of Honda, Suzuki, Kawasaki and Yamaha. Husqvarna went from the best to almost out of the bike business.

My dad had a 1974 Husqvarna CR400. What a beast. It was the first "real" dirt bike I learned to ride on. It was a bitch to start! But after you had it running it would be good all weekend.i remember the kick start snapping back at his leg and hearing a lot of cussing. He sold it around 1984 for $400 to a friend of mine. I was pissed and I cried. Whatever I was 16. I'd love to have it now. He had one of those old school desert tanks on it so the stock dark red and chrome one was mint.

Back in my youth I had one exactly like it. Once you finally got it started it would go like hell. The bike was much more capable than I was. :) 🇺🇸

The fact that the bike doesn't turn is the rider's problem! For it goes straight like a bat out of hell. It reminds me of a T. Rex.

I'm old enough to have owned a couple of 400's and 450's in their time. Totally different feel compared to today's bikes. I loved the feeling of these bikes. Husky had a totally different feeling from the Japanese bikes at that time. Now, the difference doesn't seem to be so large. I don't think I was ever able to get any of my huskys to sit and idle like this one. And being 130lbs at the time, I sure didn't wanna start kicking that thing again!! lol Beautiful bike. Watch out for that tank bolt!!

I had a major dejá vù all over again watching this. I owned a 1973 WR 250, same tank, same bars, similar noise, and when the camera angle pointed down it was a major flashback. Except I was a lot nicer to my bike than this rider is here

Dial it in perfectly and really enjoy all that that machine can provide as far as riding pleasure is concerned. It sounds as though is is running a bit rich in this video. Still quite a great machine, even after 42 years! Well done indeed!

Reminds me of my older brothers 250 Heika Mikola replica I love that peaky power band and that insane exhaust. I first rode that bike in the early seventies and bro still has it.

I totally agree, cheers to Bruce Brown for making/filming, On Any Sunday & Endless Summer…nothing better than surfing in the early morning in glassy conditions then when it got blown out in the afternoons we’d jump on our Husky’s and CZ’s and go dirt bike riding at Saddleback or Carlsbad racetracks, ah the good ol days of the 60’s and 70’s, good times in deed I tell ya! 🤙🏼

there is no denying the riding was rough around the edges to put it mildly. Seemed like you were fighting the bike the entire time. You can treat it as you like, but for this posting, maybe a little less yanking and pushing would have worked out better
