Need Some Help With '86 Xc250 And '93 Wxc360

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and looking for some expert guidance. I just picked up what someone thought was a '85 xc500, but after doing some research I think it is a '86 xc250. I found a few sites that decode VINs but I've had a few contradicting websites. Could anyone verify what this VIN is? XP09489. I am trying to find the engine ID as well but with no luck. Any idea where I might find it? I also got a really nice '93 WXC360 in the deal but it has a bad front rim and I can't find anything out there for it. Does anyone know what other year/model front rims will fit? Any help is greatly appreciated. I've never owned or even knew anybody with a Husky so I'm going into this blind.
Thanks
Jeremy

post pics of both bikes. the engine # on the 86 is just above the kickstarter on the center cases.

Thanks for the help. I found where the engine number should be but it was filed smooth. I just got the bike running and I think it may have a 500 engine in it. It vibrates like crazy and it kicked me back when i was trying to start it. Either way it runs and its now for sale. Thanks again.

250,s kick back and they also vibrate like hell too.

booooooo..he doesnt even give us a shot at them or reveal his location

What might an '86 XC250/500 that runs be worth? Also where can a guy who lives in Iowa find a front rim for a '93 WXC360? Used or new. Doesn't matter I just want to ride it. You guys are diehards, someone has to know a guy.

I might have one, I will check when I get home.

by the looks of the pipe on it. your 250XC is a 500XC.

Appears to be in solid shape. Couple nice looking bikes ya got there. Those 86s are terrible bikes. Can’t give em away. I’ll take it off your hands for 100 bucks haha only kidding. Looks like a nice bike regardless. Hope a husky fanatic gets their hands on it.
