    To bad they don't stay together very well, wish they had stayed with a 4 spd.

    About the third time it kicked backed then wouldnt start the next time. Timing was set fast from the factory which didn't help that! Friend of mine always said used big bores were either like new or wore out-nothing in-between, I of course asked "why" Answer for new-hard to start then too scary when running! Wore out-we never knew any different! Last two 500 XC's I bought had orig. Trellborgs on them, :excuseme:

    Bummer to see the old gas "line" in the tank, can smell it from here.

    Agreed, it's better than my '82 420. Almost guaranteed a holeshot everytime. I rode auto's from '80-'87 and wish Husky would produce another modern version. Imagine a 5 or 6spd auto!
