The CR 125, and the CR,WR 250 frames from 1972 are stamped with the MJ prefix. Starting at MJ-0001 and going higher.
Hope that helps Marc.

1972 only. More info at http://www.huskyclub.com/model.htm .


But be advised, the bloke who runs the site dropped the ball a few years back and does not send out items you pay for, or reply to pursuing correspondence, in spite of continuing to ask for CASH thru the mail for his newsletter. There is a lot of valiuable Husky info on the site, but DO NOT send any money... ;)

thanks for that, any thoughts on the differences between the MJ and MK frames, are the engine mountings the same ?

The rear engine mounting "box" is the same across all the MJ - MK frames, the obvious difference is the swingarm mounting tabs that have been added to  the MK that appear in 1973..fromt engine plates are specific to all engines sizes..there may also be a slight difference in the footpeg location and the associated brackets/gussets...aaaaaandd..the rear frame rail may also be slightly different/longer...but other than that..(and it will take a trained eye to spot)... :)
