    I've been getting all the stuff in order.
    DC Plastics in Michigan has been a great find
    Also I am fortunate through friends in Italia to have a direct line with the man himself Azza (Fabrizio Azzalin) about any of the old factory race parts he may have in his extensive warehouse.
    So I found OEM 98 TC610 graphics on Ebay , they are the red outline set for the TC610, and after that purchase I found what I really wanted the 99 yellow outline set for the 410.
    I contacted Van Erp to see if he has any of the integral molded rear fender/plate holder rear. I am restoring it to look the part of the Anders Eriksson CH Racing TE610. My friend who bought it from me added lots of weird street stuff, I am stripping her back to World Enduro Form. headlight and Rear brake light will be about all she has for street operations. This will be my DS bike, I can't wait to ride up on 99 610 and be the goon that smokes all the late model DS guys for laughs. (ego trips on old bikes). This when I owned her before.

    I just got a set of OEM 98 TC610 graphics with the dayglo yellow accents and the red trim line around the gunsight....will most likely go with this set, why not? also a battery powered bicycle or squeaze ball horn will be put on. I ordered one of these for a good horn.

    IMG-7290.jpg IMG-7289.jpg IMG-7293.jpg what she looks like now...and whats on her. BTW this is not going to be some sort of concourse redo, sure it will look and operate very well, but the scratch and dents will still be there. I have been going crazy on Ebay and Amazon. Even found a full Tecnocel seat, plus I bought a good new seat cover in BLU with Husqvarna graphic to reupholster the RED/BLK thats currently on it.

    Who is the Pascarella on the number plate? Would that be Joey or Mike Pascarella?

    I think it was Joey that was sponsored on a GP Motorcycles SM450. The owner just picked up some of the graphics from the "attic" at GP Motorcycles in San Diego.
    I had all ready peeled the stickers from the RH side.

    Ahh...mystery solved. I know he was only, like, 7 years old in 1999, and I know he's good but he wasn't that good :lol:

    That little dude smoked me in a difficult enduro on an 80 when he was about 10 years old or so :doh:

    overall the look will be an Anders Eriksson CH Racing period look.

    I posted this elsewhere. Anyone have experience with backfire screens. I always removed them from my 4 strokes as extra bs stuff. You can see it in the intake, don't know to leave or not. I have read stories of air filter burns without it.
    I never experienced any issues on any of my other 4T machines.
    The TwinAir website addresses this they use WHT and ORN foam layers on their standard filters if the filter has additional inner BLK layer it is the fire resistant layer. They don't make that type for the old 610. so my answer is I will leave it in, to be safe rather than sorry.

    Purely as a belts and braces approach, I would be inclined to leave it there as a last-line-of-defense against anything big going into the inlet.

    So here it is coming another fit check mock up. mistakes found wrong side for fuel valves.... that's why I swear by looking at the parts diagrams.........(but missed that one). Also found the skid plate is bent to crap and needs some press bending, that's why it's off the forward mount point, the 2 rear screws are broken off in the mount and the plate is pushed to the rear. BTW anyone recognize the plate brand? It has 3 Husky gunsight cutouts in the front.

    its very close now I cant wait to set her up suspension wise proper, first time round I never set sag by the book . these things use short sag low 90 mm race sag setting. I still have the front wheel to do with the tire and mousse, the rear is done and lubed. Also I will feed the suspension zerks as she comes off the rack. A rebend/reform of the skid plate (it is an Up-Tite plate), you can see in the photos its way off the fwd mount and slid back from the broken off rear mounts, need to get the bike on her side and extract the broken off screws from the rear mount anchor nuts.
