1977 Bengt Aberg/Torsten Hallman HL500

Bengt Aberg won the 1977 Luxemburg 500cc FIM Grand Prix on one these bikes.
Works SR500 motor, Lundin Profab frame, Don Jones swing arm, shaved Maico forks & triples, YZ brakes, good stuff.
I want to put lights on it and terrorize the city streets.

one of the best looking bikes ever made.
I bet it would be very satisfying to ride too.
and pleasing to the ear.
I'll take mine with milky translucent fenders and white tank with the blk & white yamaha stripe thank you.
