New to all things Husky!

Hi everyone, I hope I'm posting this in the right place, this is my first forum post.... I just bought a 2004 TC-450 (coolest thing ever!) I'm hoping that you guys can connect me with some tried and true Husky resources. Does anyone have a good SoCal Husky dealer to work with, or any good online options for parts? I would love to find somewhere I can go in person, but it seems like there aren't a ton of Husky dealers in my area, at least that carry parts for the "older" models like mine.

A a random sidebar... Can anyone recommend a nice aftermarket kickstand for that bike? Ain't nobody got time for triangle stands.

Thanks in advance! -Cassie

Thank you so much for the recommendations! Those manuals are so helpful, I actually found them the other day, wanting to check the oil in the bike. The only dealer I knew of until now was 3Bros Racing, which is great if I lived any closer to Costa Mesa! My only fear buying a husky was being able to get parts, but that's seeming more doable. I'm going to give Bills or Halls a call today, and probably again soon when I get my tax return! Thank you again!

Not sure where you are in So Cal but Malcolm Smith Motorsports in Riverside is a Husky dealer. One of the shop mechanics there (Wayne Martin) was Malcolm's personal mechanic for a while. I think they are a good resource for answering questions but you can just as easily order parts for yourself through Hall's. I also recently discovered that the North American headquarters for KTM/Husqvarna is in Murrieta, CA. I was thinking of stopping by there just to see how dedicated they are to customer service for older Huskys.

I'm out in Santa Clarita, so Riverside is still a bit of a trek, as far as my internet shopping has discovered there aren't many options. And of the places I talked to before I bought a Husky, no one had been dealing husky parts long enough to have parts for a 2004. I was going to call Bills for the parts I need now, but I need my more mechanically inclined cohorts to tell me exactly what I need (I have a lot to learn, and I'm the first to admit it!) But it would be great to have major recourses like that out here. A bit part of why I joined this forum is that I don't know anyone at all with a Husky. And now that I have one, I'm not sure why I don't see more of them. It's awesome. Thank you for the help!

JetWorld has come up a few times, do you think they would carry parts for a 2004. I've heard really good things about them, I really want Ken and Joes in Saugus(ish) to carry Husky parts. I was in there trying to talk them into it a while ago. I don't actually live there, but I'm super familiar with Castaic. (It's where my boyfriend -read: mechanic-lives.)
