As a lifetime Husky addict Doc, I'd like to see you try and make the tank look like Rolf Tibblin's from his World Championship Husky 4 Stroke. Probably the prettiest Husky's ever built. My first motocross hero and one that I met in 1972 when he and Bob Grossi won the Mint 400.

Raced the 250 version of the Husqavana in 85 then the 86 version which had the white paint on the bottom of the forks of the 85 removed and no front brace in the swing arm. Which meant it flexed a bit. Then the 87 with the eletric power valve, white power forks and the brace returned to the swingarm. Pro circuit at the time modified the cylinder and head onnmy 86 bike. That was the quickest 250 i ever owned.😅

They had two major issues out of the crate. 1) tall gearing. From memory they had 13x52. But needed 12x54. 2) jetted to run a 20:1 pre mix. So if you run 40:1 it was way to rich. I have ended up with leaner pilot, needle jet and five sizes down on the main jet. I still have a slide in my tool box from when even the slide cut away needed leaning off. Pro Circuit had a chap called Dudley who new what's was what on the husky.

Didn’t husky do an automatic gearbox back in the day, seem to remember watching one at 82 or 83 or 85? 500 farleigh GP, can’t remember if rider was Edberg, Patrick Fura? Or Lunqvist. Auto box went into production in mx and enduro range, but I guess they are as rare as rocking horse dudu. Heron 500 suszuki would be another nice rare bike from that era. Keep the vids coming, helps stave off dementia for us old gits🤣🤣🤣🏴🇬🇧

Seeing your video really got to me. I wish I was able to do half of what you are capable of. I still have an 85 500CR. Has not been ridden since 95 when I lived in Germany. It was a prize to the winner of the German 250 class in 84. He had it in the crate in his basement and I bought it and assembled it at a bike shop I worked at called Cycles America near the Frankfurt Airport. The bike had less than 10 hours on it when the one case half cracked. I moved to the states and shipped it with me. I bought a used set of case halves with clutch basket and some gearing. Never have been able to take the time to reassemble everything. Life happened and then I got older. The stock Pirelli's are still on it and it would be a great bike to see rebuilt! I have all original paperwork and manuals that came in the crate. Someone please buy it and put it back together. It is in Washington State.

I owned 3 Huskys of this generation. The Nordisk rims are made of butter. But those FORKS are really shit. They have to have the WP fitted to be rideable. WP were fitted to some Huskys of that era and that made them awesome. You could still kick ass with this bike today.
