Very interesting results with Maico 60! top 10s including 18 top 5s with 7 podiums  8) 8). Montesa gaining 18 top 10s including 8 top 5s with one podium  ;) 8). CCM 13 top 10s, 3 top 5s one podium  8). HLs 5 top 10s including 4 top 5s with 4 podiums including the  1 win  8) 8). CZ also had 1 top 10. Can Am with 2 top 10s and KTM with a moto win

Be interesting to find out what were Aberg's other results DNFs or DNS? I can remember watching the results in the day but can not remember if he was breaking bikes, crashing or mechanical issues.

A reort that  read in MXA said that Aberg had quite a few DNF's from little mech problems .

I think you missed on CZ top 10 ,there was  2? and also a Beta !

Couple questions?

Whatkind of construction is in upper rear shock mounts? Is the axle through the whole bike with thick bushes at the end?

is there tiny bend at toptube?

Im building my replica replica from 78 husky and thinking should I bother changing shockmounts or not.

I disagree. Looks like you got to enjoy yourself watching your favourite sport not to mention tripping the globe to do so. Very cool.

perfect.
so many people just automatically think/expect/believe this bike should be a pre~78 bike {which it origionally was}
yet here's a classic example of a period correct EVO version.
i guess the bike DID progress after all :)
and we all know it.
i like HL's in all thier forms whether they be pre~78 or EVO and even though they may handle like a boat anchor {i've never ridden one}, if it's what you want then build it how you like and race it in either category.

GMC 0024 is for sale on Marks Vintage Swap meet at the moment for 12K. Nice Evo spec build the same as the productionised NVT HL builds. I wish these old farts would stop waving the photos of the prototype laid down shock HL like they have found the Holy Grail.... they don't truly represent the winning period or productionised HL but rather a hack up job on a Husky.
