well, i wished id changed to the 950sm sooner, ive had it 4 weeks now, 2 of which its been in for repair which sucks, the head gasket went:(

but the two weeks ive been on it have made up for that, so much fun but enuff power to be usable for normall use aswell as fun, i rode it 426 miles in a day and then done the same journey 2 days l8r on the way home and it coped with out any isues, seat started to be a pain but u can shuffle about so much on them it wasnt to bad.

only thing is its geared quite tall so a 16t front sprocket is a must, just waiting to get my bike back so i can fit one and take it out.

overall a gr8 bike can do everything pretty much

sounds good my mate hade a superduke and regeared it and got the seat re stuffed to make it more comfy
not that be rode it that much....
well if you want to come up 4 a ride then you are more than welcome but i dont do that many miles on my husky
cot it is vvvv uncomfatable over 80 miles.....

Hi all.

Thought this may be a good place to post. I'm new to the on-road community and this is the most local site i have found. I am from Somerset and have a Husky 510 SMR, and am keen to go on rides with others to meet peeps and develop me knowledge Don't mind long miles, but as said previously, 80+ gets a bit rough after a while.

hi m8 yer i can go further but it does involve stopping or lots of twisty bits!!
oh and bore your bike out ... i have gone from 570 to 600 CC

I have been thinking about it, but dont want to comprimise reliability, have you had any issues? Did you do it yourself?

hi m8 cos mine is the smr the engines only last 7-8000 miles and then they need a new con rod
so it is a full strip down new main bearings gaskets and a rebore , oh and larger piston and rings
so not that cheep around £1200
i got a bloke who raced huskys for 7 years to do the work cos he could rebore it.
but i later broke a crank case and i rebuild it when that happened, and crank cases are only £1200+vat!!
and do i notice the difference ??well yer a bit , you can run larger gears so more speed and exceleration
but i only did mine because the engine needed a refresh.

getting my bike in the morning, about time

2and half weeks to do a head gasket on waranty..... piss take lol

ah well. its all over now

ha ha cool just in time for the the summer ....get it whilst it lasts
was the head gasket warrenty work ?
