$350 barn find

I got it for 1/2 of what he was asking.

89 TE 510, needs some love for sure but a good start.

Now you have a project

Cool bike, nice score. Way to go, 86 400 XC.

Save another Husky from neglect.

That year has the Marzocchi forks I think.
Now you have two 510s. Always good to stick with bike models you know.

Very good job !!!
Now the pleasure starts !!!
!

This will take a while, i do want to save it and make it like a lightly used bike.
the strange VIN

The carb is a little stuck, no start yet.
Will look into things before i try to start it.
Compression is there, decompression worked for 2 pulls and the stock cable broke.
Tons of stuff is mint but its seen a few good wipe outs.
Frame is looking great so far.



Shock is leaking but works ATM




more work

Got some kind of threaded bungs in the pipes, was this for tuning with EGT or O2 sensors back then?

what a deal. Congrats on the bike. Definately got your work cut out.

the needle and needle jet will be worn out from vibrating at idle so it will seem real rich off the bottom. cant wait to see the resto

the strange VIN
No, its not strange to me.....
Your 510 was made in Italy....
Listen, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE change all valves because my italian friends used the two pieces valves which broke 100 %.
...

So looking for these items, any help woud be great
-Valves
-89 L side 4 stroke rad shroud
-TE rear fender

Are parts manuals available for 89-90 Huskys?
I've never owned one of these Italian vintage.

Nice find. Great starting point. It's in good hands now.

I believe kibblewhite makes valves for those.

found the work shop manual online for the 89

thank you

Steve
