Title: The Bush Turkey Rises Once Again
Post by: PEZBerq on January 17, 2009, 11:54:43 pm

Well its finally done - another Husky 240 WR rises from the operating table and is ready to rip once more.  Just need to get some stickers fitted and to make the front brake work better than my push bikes.  What's the trick to setting up those double leading shoes?  ??? ??? ???  Cant wait for some vinduro action - the lights even work :P.

Rode the 84 240 WR at QVMX last weekend.  Husky sure had the twin Ohlins ITC's well sorted by this last year ever of twin shocks.  Suspension was awesome - ate up anything.  Unlike the rider who was far from awesome;D ;D ;D  These 84's are great....they actually steer!  Try one.

Finished it at last with a sticker kit from MXM in the UK.  Frank was great and worked with me to recreate the repro side plate number backgrounds which MXM didnt have.
