   That thing is sweet man ! well done

Thanks. Michael at VMX recreations in Bendigo deserves a lot of the credit, he rebuilt and painted the engine, wheels and forks, and painted the tank, pipe, silencer and triple clamp. i did the rest.

Here's my 78 CR250.

Thanks for the advice guys, I appreciate it.
Bendigo Dirtbikes is going to be doing a lot of work for me, will probably take some things up there this Saturday.

For me the upload button is along the top next to the explore button, shows up when my albums are open

See if yours is the same

Thanks for the reply, the answer was pretty simple, download the photo bucket iPad app and away you go!!
It's amazing what you can do when you have the right tools!!

Husqvarna / A few questions

« on: April 17, 2012, 05:47:02 pm »

Hi guys,

I'm new here, and new to vintage bikes but love Huskys, i currently have 5 of them.
At the moment i am restoring a 1981 CR250 and i am looking for somewhere in Melbourne to send the fuel tank to have dints removed and then be re-painted, and also have the wheels re built and painted, plus i need the forks re-built and painted.
Any advice, information or recommendations on where to get the above work carried out would be greatly appreciated.
Sending interstate is not a problem.

Thanks in advance
Nathan

Hi all,

I'm Nathan and i'm in Melbourne. I've recently picked up my first vintage bikes, i have a 1981 Husky CR 250 and a 1982 Husky XC 420 Auto.
I'm in the middle of restoring the CR, the frame, swing arm and various other bits and pieces have been powder coated, and i'm waiting on getting the motor back from being fully rebuilt.

When i work out how to post pics from my Ipad i will put some pics up in the Husqvarna section.
