Hello Swiss
No I don't know much about the early 510.
I know only that they used a 350 xl head on the first motors
to experiment. Not more !
Thanks
Michel

Hello
I'm Michel Dufayard from France , interested by vintage HVA 510 te ( I own several)
and also automatics.
Here's the link to a thread I began on french Forum "guide vert "about 510 aircooled.

Michel

I've added the first thread about 510 aircooled twinshocks on "guide vert".
The first thread was lost for some weeks due to a informatic problem.

The 510 #29 on page 2 is a TX not a TE. A great, fun bike to race but a prick to start. That same
bike was featured in a early VMX mag and also Ray's book on VMX Motocross Bikes  ;)

Michel,

Do you have a link to the posts from Stephane Tirot and his CR/XL420 on the French web site?  I used to be able to get to it with Google Translate, but then Google changed something and I could not get to the link any more?  Also, Google will only access the one page that I connect to?  When I change pages, the web site won't recognise my log-in and kicks me back to the introduction page?  I can log in but when I try again to go to page 2 it throws me back to the Homepage without my log-in?  I can't even ask for help on the web site because I can't log in to Post for help!

There is a beautiul one for sale in the Uk at the moment.  The builder sold it, the new owner rode it once and it is for sale again.  It'll be a lucky bloke who gets it.....

HVA Factory in the UK have alsorts of parts for the 510, valves, pistones, heads, barrels plus a whole host of other Husky parts....

What are the differences between the 510 te and tx ?
I've seen pics of original 83 510 tx with a tube under the motor ( like TE and WR)
and a rear frame not cutten ( different of the 510 # 29).

I think they only made the 4 stroke air cooled for 3 years,
1983 as per 4V5 bother's, 1984 with the dropping down tank like mine, and the 1985 model with single shock.

I haven't seen an 85 model in the flesh but I think these look the best.

Did the air cooled 510 use roller rocker arms?

OK so the 410/510/610 all use the Roller Rocker Arms.  That makes me curious how close the cams/rocker design is to the prototype Honda XL350.  Any chance of adapting parts?  How reliable have the Husky rocker arms been?
