This 1972 Husqvarna 450 WR Competiton MX Vintage Racer, then parked. 

Was built to race the vintage race series. Competed once and was stored 15 years ago.

Out fitted with a Black Peanut  fuel tank with chrome knee panels over a silver single-downtube frame, and power is provided by a rebuilt 456cc two-stroke single paired with a wide-ratio five-speed manual transmission. Other equipment includes alloy fenders and rims, a Bing 56 concentric carburetor, a high-mount expansion chamber, a black vinyl saddle, with shifting on the left side and a chain drive on the right.  

The 2.5-gallon aluminum fuel tank is finished in black with chrome sections where the rider’s knees make contact. The single-downtube chromoly steel frame and lower fork legs have been refinished in silver, and other features include polished alloy fenders, a replacement factory seat, plastic number plates, and a side stand. The air-cleaner box is adorned with a decal honoring factory rider Bengt Åberg, who won 500cc-class world motocross championships aboard the marque in 1969 and 1970.

The cross-braced handlebar is finished in silver and equipped with a Magura trap-door twist-grip throttle.

The 456cc single came from the factory with a 36mm Bing 56 concentric carburetor. The engine was rated at 46 horsepower when new and transmission were rebuilt about 15 years ago for vintage competition racing. Exhaust gases flow into a high-mounted heat-shielded expansion chamber on the left. 

After restoration, she competed in one full race and then was parked, and stored in heated garage past 14 years.
