1972 Husqvarna 450cc Desert Master
Complete, recent restoration by the famous Bill West of Central California. This bike has only been shown once and received Best of Show. This bike is very rare because it was a "big disappointment". Malcolm Smith hated it. Most were shipped back to Sweden. According to Kelly Owen, a famous motorcycle collector, "Unfortunately, what looks good on paper doesn’t always work; the Desert Master 450 was proof of this. With a lack of power and suspect handling along with a high price, the bike did not sell as well as hoped. As a result, only a few were made and what proved back then to be a bike of no interest, today is a bike which is highly sought after and sells for a premium." |

That concept was similar to the MOAB concept Husqvarna displayed at last year’s EICMA show, but with an off-road style mud guard instead of the MOAB’s street fender. This year, Husqvarna returns to the 2012 EICMA Show with an updated version of the Baja concept that looks a lot closer to being ready for production.

Despite the rather self-centered sounding name, the E-go is a humble-looking vehicle with some intriguing innovations.
