390 Husky is a dam good weapon but more a pro bike , Maico 400 is a great choice , my fav is the KTM MC 400 if you can find one.

That's the one , Noel, plus a 90mm bore, 11/1 comp, 323 Tighe camshaft, 38mm Mikuni. There are quicker motors but these last a lot longer and pull ya bloody arms off !! That's if  ya can get tha drive,  eh?? Slides !!
