    81 430 WR with 82 tank, 82CR shocks (for a little more height in the rear) and a little port work. Otherwise mostly original. Super nice handling bike with an awesome motor.

    Out on the trail. This is turning out to be quite a nice woods bike. I was lucky to find an aluminum spark arrestor and that cleans things up a bit over the stock bazooka. No spooge, running good!

    Here's a partial resto from a couple of years ago. I found this running but neglected 1987 510TE in San Jose for $300. With the help of the good folks at MotoXotica and Hall's, I was able to spruce the Husky up. A great runner and head turner. The graphics were lifted from the Husq engine service manual and repro'ed.
    I do like my air-cooled 86 510TX better though.

    cr500-83

    Heres my toy a: 83 cr 500.

    38flatslide,88 forks,PVL ingt, fatbar,boysenreeds, huskyprodkts pegs and fuelcap+some powdercoat and platings

    Yes its an 17" rearweel (the only straight rim i got)

    It is living its days at some Mx tracks, at the arctic circle in Norway.

    What do you think of my atempt to do an oldschool look insted of the plain white 83 colores.

    P,s, hope you can read this, my english grades where no A and B+

    Love it a lot more than the "milk truck" white color scheme. How'd you get the airbox black?
  11. tapio Husqvarna

    On the air box i used a Tectyl 190 aerosol can.

    Stays on plastic forever and gives a sort of nice flat surface.

    but most importan sticks to plastiks and makes i black

    Mr. Tahitian Red,
    Love that pic of your 78. Can you tell me what bend those Renthals are? I'm near Sac, by the way. We should go for a Husky ride!

    Picklito,

    Those are Renthal "Jimmy Button" bend bars.

    If I get some free time this Fall we should organize a local "Old Husky" ride at one of the OHV parks. (or maybe just Vintage in general?)
    :thumbsup:
