80-85 Husky
That explains it then, the 2 bikes I had were shocking to say the least and they were so fast that it made it seem even worse!
My Honda's and Yanaha's could lock the front easily and the Husky was barely able to retard you enough to be able to race competitively.
the Alloy tank XC was average but the Plastic tank XC was disastorous, When I would go and talk with the importer at Penrith he would scratch his head and and take more of my money to resolve it

Just my experience and as mention in other replies it does not mean all Huskies had this issue, I am sure Pelle Granquists 390 had decent brakes

BUT
I loved them both with a passion as they were 500cc MX'ers that I could ride down the road legally and then head up into the Forests!
