All 2st What did you do to your Husky today?

schwing! thats pants creaming bike porn Cos!

Technically not for the 2 stroke, but I guess it could find its way on there


Picked up some sumo wheels that had been painted and were in bad shape.



I knew they were red/green under the blue, so tried to strip them as kindly as possible. Hub came out ok, hoop not so much.



Oh well, black hoop it is I guess. Hub just got some clear.



I still have to do the rear. That one has a red hub/green hoop.

I put some 7602 Rad Braces and Guards on Today

Since we have a week of Arctic blast I moved 'er into the house so I can add a Lectron, cable and G2 throttle. Also have a Moose EZ3 clutch perch and lever and Terminator cable to hopefully ease the Rekluse clutch pull and a Q4 silencer too.
This is the first time I've had all the plastic, subframe and even the bars off at the same time. I now see that the original owner did very poor work. Everything that's been modded is done very poorly and he even chewed up the bar mount nuts, the clutch cable is melted by the pipe and fasteners are either too tight or loose.
No riding for another week, so I think I'll even have time to change fork oil and loosen, straighten and re-torque the front end.

cheers

Installed Cycra Pro Bend brush guards!

Inspected and greased rear suspension bearings. Fitted 52 tooth steel sprocket and gold x-ring chain.
Fitted a rubber spacer between the clutch cable and cylinder to align the cable with the lower anchor point better. I didn't like the way the cable had to move to align with the anchor before actuating the clutch and thought,over time, this could become a wear / clutch feel issue.

BTW I have been called "too fussy" by both my wife and kids......they just don't understand that special bond between a man and his machine.

well thats a bad place to have issue so some prep there should hopefully save you some grief

Installed DID Xring chain, TM Designs guide, slider and rollers, and adjusted float height. Anticipating a ride this weekend!

replaced the lower shock bearing with a spherical rosejoint and cleaned and greased the other bearings and sliders, out tomorow for a rip

Snowed in again here, so brought 'er back in after riding in the snow and crashing on the ice.
So today cleaned and re-torqued the forks and replaced the original front tire.


I thought the original front was pretty good, but noticed after only 30 miles of gravel road and fast hardpack fireroad it's lost @ 25% of the side knobs.
It was a bear to get off Installed a Maxxis EN which seems to be @ an inch shorter and precisely 90mm wide, looks good.




Hope it works good too.

Installed a new set of the best grips ever! Renthal Kevlar. Freshly serviced No Toil filter. Straightened rad gaurds. Filed rock pitted aluminum chain guide. Disposed of last shitty bar gaurd hex bolt and installed an 8mm standard bolt

Rode the hell out of it!

Ok, so not today, but in the past few days I got together new top end, clutch, cables, intake, reeds, air boot, clutch perch and seat cover. Spring came early here so I figured I would start the season off fresh!

I replaced my Keihin with a new Lectron from Motosportz. Fitment was good with the new cable and the rear spring clears the air filter boot (just barely).
Seems to start right up when ice cold now! So far I've only adjusted the idle in about 1 turn. Looking forward to trying riding on Tuesday.

Removed powervalves and put a massive smile on my face, filled up 7.1L and carried on lol
Wr360 bit on an off low down but twist of the throttle sorted that out and brought up the front sharpish.
Love the pro taper grips stuby enough for my short hands.

Me too 3 hours in the forest with new Lectron, Q Stealth SA, Maxxis EN front and Metz MC5 rear. Absolutely fantastic! She beat me up a little and tried to kill me a couple of times, but I made it back to the house and hope to do it again tomorrow.

so you dont have powervalves now? im confused

I disconnected the plastic arm and ziptied the valves open, ive made a blanking plate to take them out completly, to be honest i think i will try just one valve in as low rpm will be aweful in the woods.
Try it but like i said its a bit nothing nothing nothhoooooly cow here we go. Good for a laugh
