    Hello,

    I am in the process of restoring my father-in-laws Husky. We think it is an 82 CR250. Unfortunatly, he does not remember what it is. It is in very good condition and has been stored for same time. I have looked for numbers on the engine and the frame, but I can't find any. It is an air cooled 2 stroke.

    Please help with any info and point me to the right forum.

    I would also like same info on upgrades and new mods.


    Thanks in advance,

    Mark

    here's one place to look for frame & motor serial numbers

    http://www.huskyclub.com/model.htm

    82 250 CR should be frame # CN11000 or higher & motor # 2088

    frame #is on the left side of the frame front , turn the forks to see it easier.. motor # is on left side of the motor center case near the kick starter.

    The #cn00000. Frame number was used for the 250cr in '81 & in '82 one was the older case('81) and the other is the newer case ('82). The older '81 engine was a good running engine. The newer '82 case has larger transfer ports. Revised transmission. The engine serial numbers are above the sprocket on top of the flange on the older case it's a riveted plate. I'd take every older 2079 cr 250 engine I could get my hands on.
