The 83 frame (first white bike) is different to the earlier models. The mount point to the frame near stinger is different I believe. Mount is vertical instead of horizontal.  Front mount to frame should be the same. Pipes should be interchangeable between all models.

Any chance that you may know of somebody making a pipe for the CR 500?
Will appreciate some help.
Thanks

According to my limited husky knowledge....
the 81 & 82 430's are the same fitment
and
the 83 & 84 500's are the same fitment
but I am not sure about 83 430's


81-82 430





82-83 500

Price on these pipes?

Can you make one for a 1983 240?
