1984 HUSQVARNA 240 WR Europe France

Jimspac, I put one together for my 79 and used a 82 housing and made a stainless bracket that bolted up to the three original holes in the housing. It should be on here under my build "my bad 79" I'll try and look it up for you.

I really like the project, it's coming out very pretty and nice. You should keep forum alive. I see no problem with it. Inbox would be much harder.

A COMPRESSION RELEASE !! WHAT DO THOSE 240 RUN LIKE???

The 1984 250WR has the 1983 250CR cylinder porting so I imagine the 240 of that year has the same porting. We used the compression releases back in the 70's not for starting but for braking as we had 175s mostly but did not use them in our MR250s.

dad ran them on his CZs and big bore Yamahas SC500 & MX360 he' d shit if knew what they were worth today lets not even talk about the Penton mint 400

I wish I had a couple stashed from back then because we had the one way exhale only, No inhale to suck dust into your precious engine

Nous savons que l’Europe a le 240. J’étais en indiquant que la 240WR de 1984, que vous avez restauré probablement a le portage de 250CR 83 240 déplacement

Troy, there is a spark plug under the nice NGK spark plug cap, not a compression release.

as always...just sensational...

WHOOOP THERE IT IS YOU KNOW WHAT THATS THE PIX I SAW AND IT LOOKS KINDA LIKE A RELEASE BUUUUT ITS IN A STUD HOLE AND WHAT YOU CAN SEE OF THE OTHER IT LOOKS THE SAME SOOOO WTF IS THAT????????????????

That is a great looking bike, this build has amazed me from the start, this is how it's done!
