'82 500cr grossi clone?

These look so awesome. Gathering 500cr parts as we speak. My bucket list.

Should be one hell of a collection

I vented mine using nylon tube running into the air box, drilled and tapped a 1/4" thread screwed and epoxied a 10mm pneumatic pushin fitting into the stator cover with 10mm hose to airbox.
Another option might be to run another hosd connected to the exhaust at an angle to create a venturi effect pulling the air from the air filter through the stator and into the exhaust.

We have to gather parts when we see them. I know a good clutch basket is a rare item.

have you gotten any bikes put together and running from all these parts you are hoarding?

bigbill - I'm running a neat little vent utilising carb breather pipe. I tuck it up behind front rails....

Still gathering parts waiting for the warmer weather. I need to paint frames, swing arms. I figure to do engines soon.

I am working on putting a 430CR engine into an 83 CR frame with the 82 maroon CR tank. I have no need for a 500 but would love to build something that was never built by Husqvarna.

I like to ride mine, has a WR 430 motor.

I want to restore a 500cr husky. Maybe ride it.

I ran a 430 motor in my 83 frame for a while. Very nice combo. You'll need an '83 430WR exhaust and then just bolt it in.

I already have the 1983 430WR exhaust. It will be shared between the 1983 430WR I am building and the 1983 framed 430CR. My chances of finding another 1983 430WR chamber are slim. Yes I know I can get one from HVA but the price is out of my reach.

Now undressed.... The crank seals are either wanked or not the right ones as it smokes like a trooper and runs on.

I want to build a grossi clone just to have one. A Sunday rider with the grandson. Unless my kid races vintage, post vintage etc.

Yes happened to me on new build. All viton seals are not the same. Had one blow just after break in. Have better luck with the Italian ones.

Halls has them

Didn't seeze? Lucky.

Bill Grossi's orginal 82 proto type cr500 Husqvarna was found here in the states, purchased and shipped to the U.K. For a complete restoration. Now it's up for sale.

Surely would look great next to a rich mans MV AGUSTA F4 right?

At www.HusqvarnaMan.com they offer a 83 gripper seat that's blue/yellow. Never seen one.
