    Heikki Mikkola is legendary motocross rider from my country Finland. So cool to see this bike on your channel.

      Heikki Mikkola is the whole name. Asuu Lopen Läyliäisissä. Maailman kovimpia crossi kuljettajia. Nice to see Heikki's bike there👍☺️

    Saw the "Flying Fin" race back in the day in person. I bought a new'74 250CR, was virtually identical to the World Champ bike of '73. The bike shop ported and polished it to factory race team specs and put a handmade pipe on it. I copied all the trick lightening techniques of the time and made replica works parts for it. Miss the castor bean oil, smell. Ah, the days of racing with 4" travel suspension !

    I had the privilege of watching men race on motocross tracks in the woods outside of Frankfurt in West Germany from '75 to '77, some tracks with trees pressing against either side, no where to go if you fell, looked absolutely terrifying at their WFO speeds. But afterwards the gladiators would gather and banter and load up their chariots for next time, back when Heikki was the heavyweight champion of the motocross world on his OG Husky. 😀

    I remember seeing Kent Howarton ride. That model many times before moving to factory Suzuki. My friend Mark robalard from a metheun mass who was New England champion. A few times on a factory can am. Had just signed with factory huskavana through Mike Guerra when he tragically passed.

    Cap,, I broke my back and got a spinal cord injury in 1995 on my BULTACO 1971 360 El Bandido. it was like brand new awesome and I lived in Wisconsin out on the dirt roads! Be careful running your bikes IN Tall Grass! because I hit an obstacle I was not aware of😮. IME STILL WALKING AND RIDING BY GODS GRACE.

      Husky in name only. But the Austrian's do the name justice as I believe the technology advancement progression would have been about the same. The Swedes probably would have stayed with Ohlins over White Power for the suspension 'tho.

    Another great lookin Husky @ Kaplan…I saw Mikkola at the US Grand Prix @ Carlsbad in the 70’s, i saw him on a Husqvarna from 1970 to 1976 then he jumped to the Yamaha team in 77 and won the 500 World Grand Prix Championship…the “Flying Fin” was an awesome motocross rider and World Champ! 🤙🏼

    The rear shocks are almost bottom out just riding it around. Needs heavier rate springs or a much lighter rider. I had a 76 WR360.

    Who would’ve ever thought that Husqvarna would make E bikes. I’ve got one and it is bitching. I had a 71 wr 250 Husqvarna and a 72 450 CR. The 450 was a hill climber with a huge sprocket on the back didn’t climb very well so damn light. Happy trails.

      Husqvarna E bikes are actually KTM now because they own Husqvarna. Ktm is only known today because they bought Husaberg and copied their engine to make fourstroke dirtbikes. It’s sad that KTM killed Husaberg. Husabergs bikes very best dirtbikes, enduros and supermotos better quality than any other manufucturer.
