Another build you may not have ever seen--Vintage Husky lovers (Swedish), Honda Xr75 ,DG 100 and others coming

Just finished another odd bird. I love the real Husky's and always wanted to add a 175 GP to the collection to run in the Historic 200 class. However, the ML framed 175 had only a 2 year run (75-76) and really low production numbers,which made finding a good starting point much more difficult than I hoped ,and THEN finding missing pieces bordered on ridiculous. Finally found one in Arizona and was hoping it was a decent one since it spent the majority of its life in the dry climate. Of course I was wrong. Rust everywhere, engine completely locked up,( not a big deal) and eventually found that the magnesium center cases were rotted away in the crank area. ( Definitely a big deal) ended up finding and buying a second engine hoping those cases internals were better--they were not. I ended up repairing both sets, one by welding and re machining,and they other by good ol JB Weld. Using the JB cases in the bike currently. Crank needed rebuilt of course. Not usually a big concern,but I wasn't aware that the 175 engine was a stand alone piece and didn't share any pieces with other Husky's. Not a single 175 connecting rod in the entire United States or Europe, Yikes!!. Got a tip from an Australian dude that there was a Husky shop in northern Sweden that had a bunch of NOS Husky parts. I contacted them and not only did they have an NOS Rod and other internal pieces I needed ,but the owner was Arne Kring!!! Yes, the former Husky factory rider and GP legend. Super cool dude and his daughter sent me a bunch of Number plates and pictures that Arne signed for me. Waaay too crazy. Anyway, to speed up the story a bit , all frame/swingarm /hubs got blasted and PC's, rims were cleaned ,polished and anodized Husky gold,with Pirellis mounted,a little cerakoting here and there,I fabbed up some front and rear brake stays, used upgraded Husky triples, built new Piggyback Online out back ,Racetech gold valves in the front, new HPI external flywheel ignition,Lectron carb (legal in Historic class) ,I did some very mild porting , polished the exhaust port, had a cone pipe that was originally for my 74 Mag 250 but didn't fit the MK frame quite right,but did work perfectly on the 175 . Had a custom billet silencer fabbed by my local Aluminum magician. Gripper seat cover was made by EVO mx in the UK, Brian Fedigan did the tank paint. Bike runs and handles great, needs a few settings sorted out but its going to be a really good one . I did a trial run on it 2 weeks ago in a ridiculously dusty one hour X-country race,and it ran great. Anyway,it came out pretty nice I think. Im posting a few of the " before' and some "afters" .
