1992 Husqvarna WR 360

I picked up this bike for a good price off a guy I knew. It's a monster. Most people whinge about the kick start being short and difficult. Yes it is but not once you get used to it.

This model came with a swing arm mounted side stand. Big deal you say.... yes it is if you are a bit of a short arse like me. So after a bit of modification and fabrication I am now able to start my bike without a tree nearby or a fence post which is handy when it spits me off in the middle of a paddock.

It's got stacks of grunt and the power range is fairly low for a two stroke. It is a bit scary (actually I'm nervous every time I get on it) but I know I'm alive when I kick it in the guts on a straight, corner, anywhere!

Pros: Old school two stroke with truck loads of power. Road registrable.

Cons: It's a bit tall for me - but so is everything else ( I used to have a tt600 back in the 80's before going back to road bikes).
Mixing two stroke.
