Heya Trubilt. My husky has now just done 1150 Km. Yes matey, its definately a favourite of mine. Have own Yamy 500´s( xt) cr 250´s, an ossa, 1 suzuki, a yz 250, cbr 900, xl 250/500. Most of the xt´s, have been oversized/stroked to 610. I service the bike myself, good bye 2yr warranty. Just remember to put the bag filters back the right way round, or suffer seizure. I will change cogs to 12/45 when the orig´s, are faded. I absolutely LOVE this machine. power to play with on call.Good to hear I´m not the only 40+ to be silly enough to climb on one of these. Pipe is going to go, later. any tips for tyre with grip? My stocko´s are crap. Enjoy your husky mate. I know I am.
