Magnificent 7

Speak for yourself! 55 here. Can recite every verse. Even if I learned it from Shrek, but we don't have to go there.

Wow. You're on a roll. Looks like you've unbuttoned your trenchcoat today!
Around here, we just refer to our orange, white, red/white, blue/white, blue/yellows as Huskatoomaberg, what will all the inbreeding. SP has become our uncle-daddy.

Loving this thread. Great idea for a period piece. Beautiful bike, but a little busy for me. Here's my .02, just thinkin' out loud. Yellow was a really popular color in this era, and to this day nothing speaks 70's/80's MX quite like yellow. With this in mind...

I'd like to see a factory gold leg and rim, as I think Danny Magoo did on some of his Fox Maico's. It ties in nicely with the yellow of the tank.

OR...

I'd like to see the leg done exactly like the tank, red/yellow/red, with black lettered HUSQVARNA.

OR...

How about an all yellow leg with black HUSQVARNA lettering. Remember the very popular yellow fork skins?

With any of these I think I'd go back to the white fenders just to not over-do the color.

Of course... YOUR bike (bows head in submission).

Yeah, this one is tuffy.

I have painted that fork leg 4 times but not posted it. Just didn't click. Last one was completely orange with fox head.

What is another monkey wrench! That aluminum rear swingarm.

Here is other kicker????? Front plate and side plates (custom made special), might be white or I can even have done in red.

Much better I think

Here is other side but ignore the ohlin shock.

That's the look for the forks!

Here are some various Moto x fox bikes.

They are in the oven!

I've had these things about every color. Too bad there is not one out there to copy.
I had the ribs on clutch cover in yellow, red, orange etc... With silver background!
Blah blah yuck!
This looks the best in whole color scheme.

No that's KG. Tough as nails and carb cleaner won't remove it. Wears tough as nails.

Took that Maico for spin. She scoots! When you throw your leg over a Maico! You say, leggo my Maico!

I switch the carb out to 36mm and put a jetting kit in it. Need just lil more bottom out of the hole. So I'm going in to fix that later.

Might fox the silencer then?

Silencer polished with orange and black outline fox head?

Gonna have to get rid of that gold head ! Planning on black rims!
