    Very nice bike, 1st time i've seen that lug on frame for top chain roller
    used, only thought that was used on the 125 & 175 only.

    Very very nice Frog. Where are the plastics from? and would you recommend them? They look great.

    I'm also liking the workshop and pickup truck in the background :)

    also fix the front brake cable, add the left rear side plate mount bolt/bracket, and put a washer on the gas tank mont bolt etween the rubbers as those tanks are a bee-yatch to paint and mint ones are getting scarce. Good eye on the top roller too.never saw before except on the tiddlers. Very nice though.......VERY nice!:thumbsup:

    Hey Guys-glad you like it,yes I have a few things to do. I'm looking for the hex piece the front brake cable goes thru to the fork leg. And I will buy a complete chain tensioner also. The tank is MINT,not a dent or ding in it.Another week or two and it will be done.The plastic is DC it's prettygood,if you want glossy stuff Phillip at Husqvarna-parts.com has that.Thanks

    I can remember either the 250 or 500 CR in the UK having a rear loop..

    Very nice example.... shame to get it dirty

    I noticed this also,my 1984 250XC had one. It looks like a CR frame,but I checked the #'s XC. And it doesn't look to be cut,too clean and same place as CR models. I think they look better without the loop any way.:thumbsup:

    Agreed, that's the reason I took mine off my 83 XC
