    Yes... but parts book shows the roller was used on WR125 and XC125 only.

    Thanks......maybe the shorter suspension and bigger rear sprocket or both needed it.

    Also. I recall, but may have got it wrong, the rules of the 6 day enduro mandated maximum 10.5 inches suspension and all the 6 day bikes came out with the 125 travel?? Any recollection?

    Yes, it's for the 125 cc, and all Husky of this era (82-up) used the same frame no matter what engine it had bolted into it.
