    Hi guys,
    Looking for advice on where to find fork seals for a '74 250WR (gray legs) and also "Husqvarna" tank decals. Also advice on the red tank paint.
    Any help appreciated,
    Mark Brooks

    Fork seals can be obtained from any bearing/ seal supplier. I take in my old seals, they measure them rather than trust mine, and they get me what I need for a fraction of the price from a vintage supplier.
    Also if you know the dimensions in mm for OD, ID, and H(height), you can get good deals in several eBay stores.

    Tank decals you should be able to get those from www.vintagehusky.com

    There are several Husqvarna paint code references in the PDF of Husky Club newsletters

    Thx for the reply, I ordered the decals from VintageHusky. I hope they're the right ones. I did still need the tank paint color though!
    Would you have the "250WR" decal that goes on the clutch cover?
    Best Regards,
    Mark

    Try to compound and polish the tank so that a true color match can be done from it. There is a brochure on vintagehusky.com site that is under Id Your Husky,find the 250 series, and click on the blue for the 1974 250WR and that will bring up a photo of the original brochure.
