Hell yeah, Fro is racing! They ride older bikes for the race? Refresh my memory. Be nice to see Fro on a 1992 YZ125. How he made that POS go so fast is beyond me

Emig is now a Husky employee.

Must ride Husky.

Must ride bad ass Husky.

Rumored to have come from the Husqvarna museum.

Those are the bikes that Fro is racing this weekend. He was originally going to be riding a KX500 but unfortunately his brand embassador deal with Husky means he can no longer do it, which is a shame. But it will be awesome to see him there nevertheless, I'm sure he'll make those Husqvarna's rip

I believe they are factory bikes out of the Husky museum. I don't know much about them to be honest. But there's a good chance they are the super special, money can't buy type

Looking at it again it has a white power shock,ohlins was stock and very good for that era, forks are correct.

I'd rather ride that bike than a kx any day,but that's just me.

Any pics of the other side?

Thanks RG1 , I'd like to see the engine up close. Those engines had no oil pump,the cam chain carried the oil to the top with a reed valve controlled dry sump. .

Mighty cool stuff in all those pics.
