Husqvarna / Re: Digiddave rides again.

I have got some good deals from him as well.Just as he starts with ridiculously high prices,start offering him super low prices,generally you keep exchanging prices till you come up with a price which is acceptable to both.
Its a strange way to go about it for sure but the end result can be a bargain.

You have to drop 1'' off the front fork dampers as well as fixing the swingarm to give it 7 "/ 4 ".
Putting  7" Alpina damper rods inside makes this an easy job.

Looks like we can blame Husqvarna for the curse of black rims on VMX bikes.

For Sale / Re: 1971 Bultaco Alpina 250 with 600 miles

The airfilter material is the original fuzzy nylon one.The best place for it is in the bin.You can buy replacement Uni filters to suit and the engine will last forever.

Dennis,
           Are you counting KTM Freds 73 in the NSW numbers.If not that would be the six accounted for.
          That bike in parts lived in my shed for four years while he was overseas and is now also being put together.I am trying to dig up the numbers for it.

For a Cessnock person,joining up with that mob over the hill would be seen as going to the dark side!
Its only a small hill,but one side is light and the other side dark.  lol. Don't do it Zane.
