    Rossik,

    Here you go! The only thing I did was work with guy at TM Designs. I fed them some measurements and this was closest one.
    For the bracket on 83 with the two bolts and single bushing mount. Just grind it out some till it fits, pivots etc... There is plenty of meat left. I marked the area.

    And this is what it looks like bolted together with bracket.

    Then I trimmed excess off that I marked.

    There are two holes in chain guide. I used the front two.

    The roller design keeps the chain aligned as well.

    Now this chain guide also works on the older bracket.
    Still grind some out so bracket and spacers align with one of the two holes in chain guide.

    I'm not sure yet which holes I will use because have not gotten one yet for the 82 Cr 250?

    This was an experiment, say to speak. But it does fit older bracket, just retain the spacers.

    Here is chain guide I matched up. Comes in yellow, blue and black.

    are you going to be continuing the stripes from the tank down the sidepanels somehow? i can understand not wanting to follow the original format but some kinda stripe mockup would be cool.

    Yeah, planning on stripe to come off of tank. Where it says: Cr 250, I just want to put in Husqvarna.
    That way if I would change sizes,stroke crank, etc... It is not labeled.
    I'm think under the stripe, to put some blue lines in to look like vents. Add some yellow accents and blue accents, like these side plates.
    Thinking now of holding off on side plate graphics till I get the front and rear fender ones.

    Here you go!

    Oldbikedude! Bet you tired of popcorn!

    Glad I didnt send side plates, cause now I can mess around with them, design wise?

    They even made me Curved WER front fender decals for this fender.

    What your thoughts now?

    Very nice!! Submit the design to KTM to use for a new Husqvarna model. A modern twist to a classic Husqvarna!!!

    I just finished graphics on my bike (KTM 450 XCW) and they were inspired by your colors. You can see my Ducati on the bench.
