$4000 ono 1983 husqvarna XC 500
« on: April 05, 2014, 07:01:18 PM »
New piston kit and air filter 12 months ago. Boyesen reeds and it does run better than standard with them.  Yss remote res rebound/compression adj rear shocks. Runs great, 6 speed so prob does 100mph! Always starts good hot or cold. Alloy bars. Wide footpegs. I have raced it numerous times in modern mx and I have spent the time sorting suspension and jetting. Steel tank has a couple of small dents. No cracks or flat spots in rims. Ridden half a dozen times a year, so it has scratches here and there. I paid $6500 in 2009 in the boom times so asking $4000 ono now. 0410091105. mcguire17@optusnet.com.au Bike in Rockhampton.
