chrome bore means less weight and better cooling for long moto s The power is just refined but you could match that with a port match and clean up.

Bullshit , it was nothing to do with him , he rode CZ for at least as long as KTM if not longer. Nothing but respect from the whole community.

Husqvarna / Re: husky frames: some questions
« on: May 22, 2017, 11:40:16 pm »The top shock mounts on'75/'76 frames point down, on '77/'78 frames, they point up. 1979 is a new frame again & was the first of the top mount being a stud, it uses a different air box set up as well.

« on: April 23, 2017, 09:07:21 pm »Stan was it this year that Anton Alers had his accident?
Yeah Jerry that was the race. Anton and Ronnie came through the field and were making ground on Jack when they tangled and crashed at the end of the main straight.
Stan
Are you sure about that? I thought that the accident happened as Anton was attempting to pass Ronnie for the lead with 2 laps to go, they had already passed Jack who then passed the fallen and went on to an easy win.

Wanted / Re: YZ250D forks
« on: March 07, 2017, 11:54:39 pm »Buy one meter of 20 x 20 RHS , cut a V into one end about 50mm long then close up in a vise. If you can, weld up the V and grind smooth , now push firm into fork and hold with a shifter.
You can't push into the damper rods on the Ds they have a turned top with holes on the side.

« on: February 26, 2017, 11:54:15 am »Hi,might have used ones , what are the dimensions?
Would anyone have a pair of front fork rebound/top out springs for a 1981 Maico 490 they could sell me? I'm after the long soft pair not the short stiff ones.
Thanks, Ralph
