This 1973 Husqvarna 250 CR was acquired by the seller in 2023, and subsequently refurbished with work including refinishing the fuel tank in chrome with red paint, powder-coating the frame and swingarm, painting the exhaust and drum-brake hubs along with refreshing the 245cc two-stroke single, and more. Shifting is through a five-speed transmission, and additional equipment includes green number plates, a black vinyl solo seat, a kick starter, a Bing carburetor, a Motoplat electronic ignition, a chrome cross-braced handlebar, and a side stand. This 250 CR is now offered at no reserve in Virginia for off-road use only with a workshop manual, a refurbishment photo book, and a bill of sale.

The 1.85-gallon fuel tank has been re-chromed and finished with red paint and white Husqvarna graphics while the half-duplex cradle frame and swingarm have been powder-coated silver. Equipment includes raised white plastic fenders, green number plates, a black vinyl seat, and a silver-finished air cleaner cover adorned with a decal honoring Grand-Prix-winning factory rider Bengt Aberg.

Polished Akront 21″ front and 18″ rear alloy rims are laced to drum-brake hubs that were refinished in black and were mounted with Pirelli Garacross knobby tires in the refurbishment. Suspension is provided by a conventional telescopic fork with black sliders as well as a swingarm with a pair of Girling adjustable shocks.

The chrome cross-braced handlebar is equipped with Magura black grips, clutch and brake levers, a twist-grip throttle, and a run switch. The 250 CR did not come equipped with an odometer or other instrumentation, therefore true mileage is unknown.
