Well i guess I'm down for the winter. I will use the time to work & make new trails till the spring. I wish it didn't cost so much for a rebuild but with christmas coming on I can't really swing a new bike yet & would still have to get this one fixed. I entered a thread under 4 stroke [hope it is where it belongs] detailing what is wrong with my bike & could use some answers if anyone is interested.
The 4st forum is definitely the right place for the right place for the 4st technical discussions. Good luck with that It is my understanding there are some outstanding mechanics back there. I'd start asking around if you don't know who to call or what to do.
I've been talking to George at Uptite & as everyone knows he is the man! He wants me to look at the cylinder so when i have time I will do that. When I asked him about the timing when I put it back together he just said "call me & I will talk you thru it & don't say thanks because your in the Husky fold".
Good one George, thats what I love about these nutty bikes and their owners (or is it nutty owners and their bikes). Just have a look at other brand formats, you see lots of heated arguments (gets personal) and very little offers of help. There is something very healthy and appealing about the Husky mob-long may it last
