Do you remember Steve McQueen’s and his immortal picture riding a Husqvara H400 half naked!? We’re sure you do. But if you don’t Husqvarna is definitely truing hard to make you remember. The brand that belong to BMW group now, released a beautiful concept motorcycle called Husqvarna Concept MOAB – modern reinterpretation of the legendary scrambler. This would be the kind of a bike that “king of cool” would ride if he was alive today.
The engine is 650cc mounted to the stripped down perimeter frame, the rear swingarm has progressive linkage while the 17 inch wheels have knobbly tires on – perfectly suitable for off-road bashing on the cult Moab dessert in Utah. The styling and colors of the bike go hand in had with the original – with large red fuel tank, spacious seat and yellow side panel number holders. Front section of the bike is probably the focal point of the whole design featuring a flat mask for the numberplate with a clever arrangement of LED lights acting as the headlight.
The whole bike is super cool, vintage and soooo Steve McQueen-ish. We love it!
