Hey my roommate yoko her husband taught Steve to ride side car for the great escape. He had giant Honda kawasaki shop in San Francisco. His name was bill powers be cool to find someone tht knew him
I thought that it was Malcolm Smith to. That was incredible, then he turned around at the top of the hill and rode down. But this is a beautiful motorcycle. 👍💓☮️🇨🇦☕🦫
Remember when you saw On Any Sunday for the first time , even though you were already into dirt and motoing in it , then see a movie about it , The very next day you were out there Motoing,hooked for life
Steve McQueen was a Bad Mofo , and one hell of a motorcycle racer and actor. That is one gorgeous classic. Love the pics that you are allowing to go with the purchased bike. My favorite Steve McQueen Movie was The Hunter. I think it was Steve's last movie that he starred in. Steve was a Bounty Hunter in the movie named Ralph Papa Thorson. I highly recommend the movie, if you've never seen it before.
Kaplan cycles has the best vintage dirt bikes godfather of vintage dirt bikes, the King of ping amazing dirt bike 💎 Steve McQueen Jack Weaver's collection is amazing sir. Thank you
Do I see Koni shocks on this Husky ? It's been so long since I've seen any. What a beautiful bike. Is the 8 speed tranny dual range ? OK I heard it. Girlings.
@@66C10L my old 1982 Honda CB 900 had high and low range transmission , my Uncle still has his 1980 CB 900 , but his high range was like my low range , his low range was lower , he was always quicker , by just a little , even if I got the jump
I once got to try my friends husqvarna 390 auto. it was fun untill i got brave, after that i sended that thing trough a thornbush and into a wall. ( dont worry the bike was fine. me I got a concussion and a severe talking to by my friends parents. i was 13 at the time
Because it’s over restored I’m gonna have to estimate it at $50,000 which is a third of the price if it was original either way I can’t touch this I had a 495 husky really admire the brand always have
I loved that bike!! Back in the day!! 😊
Torque!
That Husky looks exactly like my Dad's Husqvarna 360 8 speed. I loved it's throaty motor.
Steve McQueen is on cover of modern cycle but that is Not Steve McQueen ripping across the desert, that is Malcolm Smith!

8 speed ! That’s new to me , wow 😎🇺🇸👍
That’s what I thought too !
@@joelaichner3025 I believe they were 4 speeds with a high and low range which they called 8 speed
Honda used it alot on the CT's

I encourage you to go look at the 400 Husky on display inside the restaurant at Monarch pass Colorado .
You're a cool dude. I really like your videos.
Smashing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Charles Bronson was a good rider according to legend, part of his fitness program was rope climbing, and dirt bike riding. A different era, for sure.
The 1972 film The Mechanic starring Bronson had a chase scene with Husqvarnas.
Nice
Killer man……love this

What’s the 3rd lever on the left ? A Choke ? You said lever #2 was a compression release
@joelaichner I believe it’s to switch from low/hi 4 speed (8speed) but I’m not sure how it works

🐝🏁 Video 👍
You didn't mention that it's right foot shift and left foot rear brake
👍👍👍👍👍
I was gonna buy it, but the mud flap, looked a little crooked, so forget it.
Venhill is the best
The original rims look very similar to those rims, are you sure the rims arnt original?
What is the fee to store a motorcycle at your museum?

Steve McQueen was the perfect size for that little bike. Where is Kaplan makes it look like a bear fucking a rabbit when he gets on it
My lord lmao.
