250-500cc Husqvarna 360 The update thread

I have wanted a Husky since I was 10 and saw Steve McQueen riding one in On Any Sunday! Now many bikes and 40 years later I finally have one. I bought it intending on it being a winter restoration project, but when I got it home I did a little once over and decided to give it a kick and see if it woudl fire up. Three kicks and BBBBBRRRRRAAAAAAPPPP the beast was alive and running perfectly after sitting in a guys shed for 4 years WITH fuel in it! Idles fine, runs up through all the gears and gives me a huge smile! Gonna change fluids and do some minor maintenence and go ride! It is obvious to me this bike want to hit some trails. Guess it will be a late winter project

Did I mention I picked this up for 700 bucks? I am the luckiest guy in the world right now.

I have been trying to get 98-99 tank shrouds for mine for months but with know luck....Had to settle for 96 model ones...
