    Aloha all fans of the Husky-ness,:cheers:
    My 390 is 99% back together (still waiting on some parts shipped snail-mail) and I went to fire her up and noticed the kicker is getting stuck on the frame about 2/3 of the way down the stroke. It hits the frame almost immediately and gets progressively worse from there. I have the kicker that only the footrest at the top folds out.
    Anyway, since Frankenbike is from so many different era's is there something that's missmatched. OR... when I re-installed the motor did I screw the pooch somewhere and it's not centered properly? Sure looks like there's only one way to put her back in...but I dunno.

    Mahalo's,

    What are my kicker options?? Husky kickers seem impossible to locate...will another brand fit?

    Also, the rear wheel is not centered, it's a 1/4" closer to the swingarm on the sprocket side, I'm using stock spacers but from what year Husky.. I don't know?
