    My 1983 430WR with 1984 seat and gas tank for racing purposes. I have the '83 tank and it's perfect.
    Craig Hayes motor and suspension, full rebuild on everything other than the wheels. Stock wheels were too nice to touch.

    Snowbanks finally subsided enough so that I could get my new Husky out the door, my dining room looks so empty without a bike. Unfortunately, it failed the inspection for a plate "too loud" but everything else got the ok. I'm having the exhaust repacked, the guys at my local shop think they can get it quiet enough to pass, I'm not sure what this will involve, there is not much of space in that pipe to work with. I'm hoping for a more sympathetic cop next time.

    hopefully it will work, sounds like you are pretty close to making it happen...if the packing is oil soaked, broken down, or just missing a repack will help quite abit. will help power especially throttle response as well.

    Never had a problem with my tail, it just follows behind and flaps in the wind. I tie it in a couple of knots if I want to keep it out of the way when I'm working on something messy or dangerous. Still waiting for the work on the exhaust to get done, I can live with it a little quieter, but I hope my poor Husky still sounds good after being muzzled.
