You have a fixation with pipes. I stopped short of saying fetish

Thanks Ted, it's only a fixation at the moment, but I'm getting worried...

[bazza]

If it has a HL blender, who cares where the pipe goes!!!

Don't worry about BigK Pete. He'll eventually realise that those sewing machines he so fervently defends are much better with a big Jap thumper in the frame. Apart from offending Mick, I'm sure that whatever you build will be one very well put together machine.
Personally, I'd go with the right exit pipe simply because of the less bends needed.

Well Mark, I didn't break up a bike to get the frame, so hopefully BigK will take that into account . I will probably go with the right hand side, a la B50. Might even graft an XL500 head on and go with a pipe each side

A better idea than using a Yamaha motor would be to use a mighty Honda XR500 motor. Not only will it upset BigK even more, but you will have to change your username to HonHuski

I just don't understand why anyone would want to make a Husky, fat, heavy & slow? Each to their own though. Some people like fat women, so I guess it's sort of normal.

It's actually much the same number of bends for either side
3 x 90's + 3 x 45's
Vs
1 x 180 = 2 x 90's + 2 x 20's

Firstly in fixes Husqvarna’s engineering mistake of putting the kick start on the wrong side of the bike thus making the riding of the husky a much more enjoyable experience.
Secondly the other common mod is the fitting of Yamaha wheels so it will also have better brakes.
Thirdly the fitting of the Yamaha fuel tank and seat make it much more comfortable to ride.
Lastly the addition of Yamaha stickers also means you don’t have to throw a tarp over the bike when you’re out in public

How about someone putting a Husky engine ,tank wheels brakes ext ext in/on a Yamaha mx and then having a track compero ?

[bigk]

Husky engines don't belong in farm bikes Tim.

Not while there's lawnmowers chainsaws and sewing machines that need motivation

Do you prefer motorized pianos Mainline?

I'd rather have a fat, heavy and slow Husky that goes and can be made to roost with a bit of encouragement! And it will give me all the love I need without any grief. Give me a low maintenance chubby girl over a super model any day. It's a bit like eating fruit and vegies. We know we have to eat the stuff but it doesn't have the same appeal as a nice juicy hamburger

C'mon now Steve, you tinkled the ivories out at Harrisville and loved it. Then again you did have sun-stroke.
