Husky Engine ID
« on: June 12, 2012, 09:33:42 pm »
Looking for info / links for Husky engine/frame No ID's  .
 Trying to help  a mate  sort his engine woes  .
 He tells me bike is  a cross breed ;  '79 model  "OR 390" engine in  a  '81/ 82 frame . ???
 Like to know for certain  what I am looking at before I start.
 
Any info /links  from the Husky Gurus  greatly appreciated. ;D

Regards ,
                  Steve

Hi Steve,
Here is a link from Husky parts in USA. Great guy to deal with, and good source for parts. Cheers, Dewy.

X2 on Husky parts I buy pretty much everything from them, never had any troubles.
Let's face it some dirt bikes were never meant to be ridden.

the 79 390 barrels and the 80 390 barrels have different spacings for the hold down points.

A standard 79 barrel will not fit on standard 80 model crankcases  and visa versa.
Autos are the way forward , see you round like a robot
Take the short cut, go Cross Country
The shortest distance between two points is Cross Country
CCM's and HL's bark like mad dogs

  ;D ;D ....I got  a hankering for a twin shock Euro  Wayne  , so  might be a Husky  ??
  Sold the XR 500 so some space in the shed now
  Busy with mates' Husky repair for now , but still on the lookout for something to replace the XR.
