Post up pictures of your vintage Husqvarna bikes!

The bike can have a 500 piston in it as the 430 and 500 has the same exact bore. The only difference in the 500 is the crank pin offset and 5mm longer rod giving it a total of 10mm more stroke. But yes, you can very well indeed have a 500 piston in it, but it's not giving you added power as the two jugs have the same bore.

what bike did your forks come from?

Technically they didn't "come" from any bike. Back when my father used to race this in Double A Hare scrambles he purchased the entire WP 4054 front end as component pieces including the triple clamps from billet (Now Billet Racing Products). Total price back then was around $1500-2000 if I'm not mistaken.

The forks where also used on later husky MX models but did not come with the billet triple clamps.

KTM also used the WP 4054 forks on there early '90s 125 MX models.

looks amazing

I stumbled across these pics of my 88WR/87CR 430. Been riding it like this for 20+yrs.

There are some beautiful bikes and stories in this section. Late last year I purchased this 74 400 CR and have began to run some Vintage races lately. First time back racing since 1980 have a great time. Just a rider but I have had fun getting it back where it was built to be. My avatar is in 74 on the a 400CR. The last picture was taken 7/22/12.

Yes that is one nice machine. Are you going to ride it if so what type of riding?

Very nice. Is it orignal?

yes!

these are some pictures.

Hey guys,
Just picked this up today: 1973 450wr. It is the most complete of 70's vintage bikes that I have. Just needs some carb work and it will run. I will be a good model to help me assemble a couple other of the vintage bikes I have.
I plan to get it street registered. Not to commute with, but to take part in some dual sport rides.

Tommaso so nice to see another RT. They are so rare. Yours is a nice one! Has anyone else have one? I have had mine for over 20 years love it!

Your one is perfect! Nice to see another RT in Ohio! I have had mine for over 15 years. Could we create a special page for RT models?
