[QUOTE="TVRider, post: 600776, member: 36242"] I stepped in front of the moving train (wife) and bought a Husky last night. It turns out a guy 5 miles from me has a barn full of them. He didn't want to sell this one, but I talked him into it. It was raced in the ISDT at St. Joe State Park in Missouri last year. He loaned it to a friend for the event. Before it ran the event, the replaced the chain and sprokets, Carb intake boot, new air filter, brake cable and grips. The tank is a little worn and has some scratches but no dents, it could be brought back to like new pretty easily. This bike is ready to race!! :yeehaw: So...any suggestions about improvement I can make or problems with this particular bike. Where can I get correct fender? It needs front and rear. What can you tell me about the OR 250. Is it a close ratio trans? Does it have the ability to add lights? One odd thing was the forks were super long! They extended above the top triple clamp about 4-5" and the bike seemed to sit pretty normal like that. What's up with that? Any ideas? This guy also had a mid 70's 430, but claimed this particular 250 was almost as fast. I tried to start the 430 and all it did was wear me out. I decided that with the better suspension, the 250 was the better bike for me. I'll post a picture as soon as I get one. Thanks for you input :thumb: Tom [/QUOTE]
