    I am sure it for fuel tank. That has been asked before fairly recently. Frame is standard Husqvarna silver

    I have always used Ford silver, the 2007 color from Ford is a dead match.

    Thanks for the info ford Ranger silver it is.

    I also have another question , when I bought the bike it came with a new vm 44 carb in a box, I put the bike together and put it on, it had already had a decomp valve fitted to the head and it seams to run and start ok [2nd kick ]I am assuming because there is no slide wear etc.

    I have read about fitting the 38 mm carb but I had this one so I thought I would give it a go but it still has the generic jetting it came with does anyone know what Husqvarna factory jetting is or what is a good base line with stock pipe.
