Bought new in 1979, rarely used and recently restored!

The WR 240 is one of the most iconic machines from the golden age of Swedish enduro. Its lively 2-stroke engine and authentic character offer a riding experience that has become a rarity.

A model that has become scarce on the market, ideal for adding to a collection, taking part in vintage rallies or reliving the thrills of off-road riding from days gone by.

At that time, the enduro (WR) and motocross (CR) models were identical and enjoyed a superb reputation, thanks in particular to Hakan Carlqvist, the ‘Swedish Lumberjack’, the brand’s official rider, who made motocross history

First-hand bike! Purchased new in 1979 by its current owner, and still accompanied by its original purchase invoice! 

The bike underwent a complete restoration in the late 2000s, carried out in keeping with the spirit and aesthetics of the original model. It is now in excellent condition, ready to be started up.
