Say hello to my new friend

Nice find! That's gonna be a grunting tiger when you button her up!

What oil did you use?

Took the swing off, what a mess. next up change all the bearings lol

I bought my 510 from the original owner when it was just over 1 year old and he had been using BelRay 4 stroke racing oil since it was new. I continued on with the BelRay until the 5 year mark when the motor was wore out and in serious need of an overhaul. I had George Erl at Up-Tite go thru the motor and he suggested I run Spectro petrolium/synthetic blend 4 stroke oil so I switched over to the Spectro and have been using it ever since with excellent results.

Spectro's good stuff used their premix for years n years till a buddy started selling Amsoil at his cost

I saved a worse clutch cover on my 400WRX. JB Weld does a great job as long as you don't break the glazeover. If you do, just get some 5 minute epoxy and seal the broken glaze. I had to fill the seal pocket and have it machined. It restored the seal pocket perfectly.

Where can i find a oil filter sceen to buy, mine has windows.

I just fixed an ignition case with jb weld and sanded it smooth. i am wondering what you mean by dont break the glazeover

I did, i bought a few other things.

Its going back together for now and do the major resto work over winter.
Will powder coat this bike too.

Rebuilt forks and replaced the dead springs, new parts going every where as i go.

I am so lucky some days
Got a email from a guy selling his wife's late father's bike.
They replied to a want add i have online for old left kicker Huskys in my area.
We spoke on the phone and he sent the 3 pics and then i said i could pay what you want for it.
He gets home from work June 2nd and i get it for a 1000 bucks.

not too bad! i like the itc rear suspension...super cushy! bike looks pretty solid and un-abused..too bad the kicker mount is cut off, they all seem to get that treatment. i bought an upgraded one from andy to weld on my 84 im restoring..

Nice score! Keep going cause I don't think there is a Husky Museum in Canada!

That means mrs gets a new dishwasher, furniture of equal or always greater value.

I always figure double the amount........ $1k for bike and $1k for mrs!

Teasin!

great find

hope that goes to the resto shed! that should come up like new!

When JB Weld is applied it smooths out and develops a gloss. I refer to that as a glazeover. I have done exactly what you just did and it is not an issue as the repair is not subjected to fluids. You can paint over blended JB and I would recommend that.


However, if the repair will be subjected to fluid like oils or antifreeze I would not sand or I would apply epoxy over the JB to reseal if I chose to sand to blend. I believe I had been told when you sand down the glaze (glossiness), it will absorb the liquid and possibly swell. This applies predominately to inner case repair where there is no reason to sand unless in the case of my situation with a crankwell repair on my 390 engine.

Been busy throwing parts at it.
Made a few things too, chain wear pad and baffles for my hollow mufflers.
Found the carb is messed with, had no rod to hold the float linkage and no needle in the seat, omg cause it fired up ok
When i did the wheel bearings i was shocked its like brand new in there, bright yellow foam and all.


stainless steel, front radius corner from semi trailer. crap from work lol





check out trailer mud flaps, perfect stuff
