    I looked there. I didn't see it. I thought I saw a number somewhere in there. I'll look when I get home. Thanks

    right side of steering head. The tube the steering stem goes through
    looks like an 83 should start with X0 or W0 then more numbers

    where are you located?

    Joe, is right, it's a 125, after I looked at the newest (2nd) engine picture, you posted a lot closer, couldn't see the cylinder size that well, in the 1st one, besides the picture being upside down..lol

    Besides Joe knows 125 Huskys, like no one else I know....:notworthy:

    White frame so it's probably a 1983

    yes but an 83 motor.....side cover has been replaced from an older 250. 125 stayed with older cases and it did not even get primary kick til 84. the red headed stepchild of the Husky line.

    I guess the 125cc lagged behind the 250's design wise. I had three 125's two '85's and one '86.
