Beschreibung
The motorcycle has been part of a collection of vehicles in Sorsele. The late car collector Mr. Hedman was a recognized automotive expert and passionate enthusiast who restored everything from motorcycles and tractors to cars. He worked as a caretaker for the Sorsele municipality for almost 40 years and became a well-known motoring figure in the area. Bilweb Auctions has now been entrusted with selling the collection on behalf of the estate. Several of the vehicles are placed on jack stands to prevent the tires from being damaged during long-term storage. The vehicles could therefore not be brought out for the photo session, and in some cases it has not been possible to document the vehicles from all angles. Expect the vehicles to need servicing and attention to varying degrees.
Unfortunately, we have no history for this dream bike.
It was most likely acquired locally, as that is the common denominator for all the vehicles in the collection. The motorcycle underwent a restoration when it was acquired by the late Mr. Hedman. We do not know exactly what was done or when the work was carried out. We believe it was done sometime in the early 2000s.
We do not know when the motorcycle was deregistered, but it was in any case before the state introduced the central vehicle registry in 1973. The motorcycle still carries the old county registration number AC 1666. Unfortunately, we have not found any old registration documents for this motorcycle among the collections, so it is sold without accompanying identity documents. The buyer will therefore have to investigate further on their own via Riksarkivet (the Swedish National Archives) and the Husqvarna Museum to see if more information can be obtained.
This is a distance auction. The photos were taken by an independent photographer, and information about the vehicle and its technical condition, to the extent such information has been available, was obtained from the estate administrator. BWA has therefore not inspected the vehicle on site at the seller's location.

Equipped with an air-cooled 175 cc two-stroke engine. We have no information on when it was last started; no attempts to start it were made at the time of photography. Engine number B5208. Battery missing.

Zustand Exterieur
A repaint was carried out in connection with the restoration work. We do not know exactly when this was done, but we estimate it was done in the early 2000s. It appears that a nice driver-quality condition has been achieved. The taillight is missing, but some parts for the lamp are included in a plastic bag. Please study the photos carefully for more information about the condition.

Dream bike in nice usable condition. Missing identity documents.
Fakten zum Modell
Why the nickname Drömbågen?
Until 1953, the Swedish market was dominated by utility vehicles. Husqvarna's own best seller was the "Svartqvarnan" – a reliable but extremely spartan, all-black 118 cc motorcycle without rear suspension. The Drömbågen broke completely with this. It was designed by the renowned designer Sixten Sason (who also designed Saab's first cars and Husqvarna's sewing machines). Sason gave the motorcycle its iconic, futuristic pressed-steel frame, an elegant headlight integrated into the handlebars, and a two-tone color scheme in light blue and red/white. The Drömbågen became a symbol of the new era's freedom, adventure, and modern design. It was also equipped with a brand-new, dependable 175cc two-stroke engine. But the biggest news for the rider was the modern front and rear suspension. Riding on the poor, potholed gravel roads of the time was transformed from a shaky ordeal into a smooth and comfortable experience – it floated along like a dream.

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
