MF1987 is the FIRST Husky purchased Steve McQueen. While most are familiar with the in-
credible photo of him riding a Husky on the cover of the August 1971 edition of Sports Il-
lustrated. As well as his iconic performance on a Husky in ‘On Any Sunday’. This bike is
where his love affair with the Husqvarna (“Husky”) brand began.Steve McQueen had always
been infatuated with Triumph.
However, all that changed in 1968 at the Inter-Am series when there was a 4-track event
held in four locations - Carlsbad (North of San Diego), West Lake Village (North of Los
Angeles), Santa Cruz (South of San Francisco) and Saddleback (South of Los Angeles).
At this event was Moto-cross Hall of Famer and soon to be world champion, Bengt Aberg.
He was Husqvarna’s top 500cc class rider. He went on to win the World Championship on a
Husqvarna in 1969 and 1970. Aberg had come to the U.S. for the first time to race in the
American Inter-Am and that was when Steve McQueen first met Aberg and set his eyes on the
new 2 stroke 360cc Husqvarna he was riding.
