    I am in the process of restoring a 1972 Husky 250 WR. I called Raymond at Hall's Cycles this afternoon to purchase new races only to find out they are no longer available. Anyone with a source for these or information on converting to tapered bearings would be greatly appreciated.

    I fitted this to my 76 360 it has whole setup for taper bearings. A friend ordered it big husky enthusiast Sydney Australia "Husky Pete" It was ordered set up to bring the rake back a little so it turns easier. That's my memory of us getting it. https://www.vintagehusky.com/parts8.htm
