The 1972 MY Husqvarna 400 Cross sports an air-cooled, two-stroke, 396cc, single cylinder lump mated to a four-speed manual transmission, and boasted a power output of 40 horsepower. It has been designed as a race-ready machine, with a host of standard equipment that make it suitable for tackling any moto-cross track.

It comes standard with a lightweight steel frame, a sculpted aluminum fuel tank with a polished section that reduces marring for the rider. Also it was ridden by Steve MqQueen himself, in a number of movies, boosting sales of this model all across the USA.
