today l was quoted $168 to have a 1972 model husky frame shipped from the US, and other times these fellows will quote you $500 to $700 to ship a frame. so who is ripping us off.

Stan on us ebay under vintage kx or ahrma kx there is a frame quite cheep hope this helps


Thanks kaw440, yes I think it's the one I have been trying to buy Canada in but they said no to out of Canada/USA shipping. I have been away for the last 3 weeks and when I checked my ebay today I have a new message from them saying if I organise my own pick up and packing they will sell it to me, so thats what I will do if I can organise it. Thanks for your tip about it.

Regards Stan.

Sadly no CD7 for me as I'm going to Europe the next weekend and there is a limit to my fiscal activities. Might catch up with you at a couple of CSC races as well as the last 3 VCM rounds. Enjoy CD7 it will be awesome! Cheers Jerry

I'll be honest. Years ago Paul Boudreau editor of Moto Cross Action magazine used write about the trials and tribulations of owning a Pursang that he had called Fang. Get it! I unashamedly stole his humour for my own evil reasons. Cheers Jerry

Riding a Pre 70"s bike is like sticking your tongue on one of those little 12v batteries. You know it's wrong but........................
