Hi new to the forum so i apologise if i have posted in the wrong section.

Had my TC 250 2010 model for about 3 months now and started making some changes, but i have now hit a brick wall trying to get hold of some stuff, hoping someone can help me find these items plus PRICES etc. I live in chesterfield, England.

ASV levers (red)
radiator braces (red)
HGS full system (red with carbon end can)

Really loving the bike, been KTM last 2 years and kawasaki before that, best handling bike i have ever had including 2 strokes, just needs abit more grunt as i do race some open event clubs aswell as normal. The bike does top out very easy and struggles on up hill starts aginst other bikes, where my KTM didnt. I do prefer the husky by far and hope i can get more power from it.
I got the bike from the twisted 7 team and do have a race cdi unit although i never got the hgs pipe which i should have got (long story).

Hoping somebody can point me in the right direction with these parts.

hope you enjoy the pics of my bike

Buy the Arrow system from special parts catalogue or a Akrapovic system, then you will have 3-4 hp more on top.

I bought the arrow system and are very happy

Hi mate,

get the akrapovic pipe for your bike, gives more bottom end and most importantly top end.

If your bike was a twisted7 bike then the jetting will probably be out, as will the gearing. I'm surprised you say you want more grunt, ours has bags of grunt, it'll even pull a 15 stone expert rider in 3rd gear out of tight corners.

When you say it struggles on up hill starts and runs out on top end, you want to change the gearing. We went for a 47 rear sprocket and it made a massive massive difference! I'd try a 48 first though and see how you get on. Nice to see another Husky in the UK!

Call SS Racing for parts and spares, Stuart is a top man and is very reliable. 01743 821222

I have tried lots of different sprockets etc, but i think im comparing the power to my KTM to much.

Why do you think the jetting will be out being a ex twisted 7 bike?

with the grunt thing think i came across a bit wrong the bike does pull mint but i think i was more down to the start issue, riding at expert level the starts are doing my head in, getting off the gate in about 20th and having to push my way up front feels good but is annoying me. I will try messing with the sprockets again. however i did get a holeshot the other week and it was printed in the TMX about 5 issues ago, so that was nice.

i will try ss racing for stuff, been using gear 4, really helpfull however there new on the husky scene and dont know to much without getting back to you, which they always do in the end.

The graphics arent available as they are provided by my sponsors and are only for the team, but the plastics were from MD racing products and all white plastics with black scoops.

people are saying go arrow or akrapovic, what are the prices differens over the HGS system? is it worth the extra for the gains over hgs? i can imagine akrapovic will be over 1k. had akrapovic on previous bikes and dep and to tell you the truth akrapovic wasnt worth 500 more than my dep for what gains it gave.
but the husky world is a new ball game for me and might be totally wrong, any advice would be great because i am on the phone to get a pipe tomorrow to get it sorted as i have some 2 day events coming this month.
any advice much apreciated,

cheers

With the right jetting, gearing and an akra pipe the bike is just as fast, if not faster than a KTM. I've seen ex twisted7 bikes so I know what jetting they were using, and it was way out. The hardest part to get right is the squirt on the carb, this took us quite a while.

The Akra pipe is £632 for SS and about £900 for titanium. We went for the stainless option purely for the fact that the titanium header pipes dent so easily, and the SS is alot stronger.

With the starts, are you struggling with the jump or are you getting outdragged? Like I said, we got a 47t on the rear, and now the bike holds 2nd gear far far longer than before. Our rider is a decent centre expert, so if you're an expert too id deffo say 47/48 rear sprocket,

Thats great advice there, would of thought the team would have it bob on, doing the british and that. so what do you suggest jetting wise?

I have had really good jumps for about 10ft then getting out dragged.
struggled at whitby supernational the other week, but that was a concrete start gate, so half the problem was that. Also gearing from 2nd to 3rd it some times doesnt do change. I have only done about 15 races on it and i would say i have had 3 good starts. will def go down to 48 tooth i think. will a sprocket advertised as 08 fit 2010 model, fancy a new red one on ebay?

as for the akrapovic that is a really good price, really good. might go down this root then, for sure. but I am only the rider and dont know about jetting, more of a suspension guy. any advice on what jetting would be good, plus is that price definitly for the full system? looks nice too.

thanks for your advice, really enjoying the community and being abit different at race meetings. looking at getting one of the tc 450 2011 aswell when they come out.

cheers
