    I’m in Cootamundra, about 2 hours south.
    looking for new areas , usually do Snowy’s and VIC High country

    riding HUSKY 510 ,
    found this link for maps, would be worth the $25

    I haven’t ridden for a couple of months, just to busy.

    update
    relay was the hot start problem, all good now :)
    valves spot on after 7000k’s unbeilevable! 😆

    the Power Com 5 and Auto Tune are working treat,
    nice smooth bike, no flame outs, nice fat mid range

    Update:
    had a good ride today , but , still very difficult to hot start:

    pulled her apart tonight,
    the start circuit relay has a wear mark from rubbing on frame / tank, and a little hole in case, this seems to be letting water and dust in,
    replaced it and it now primes much better.
    some thing for others to check !
    i’ve got to do the valves as well, reckon that will bring some better starting
    keep updating as I go.

    Had a yarn to R and D, they think it may be a decomp issue, bit of wear in the mechanism.

    bike has done 7000k’s (all bush bashing)

    Thanks 2 banger, i spent days trawlling though cafe husky, must have got a bit weed blind,
    temp sensor looks like a definate culprit.

    thanks guys, the issue isn’t topdead centre problem, or decomp.
    the engine turns over quickly and strongly,
    just refuses to fire. when hot,

    was wondering if relays may loose their switching properties if old and heat effected,

    6500 k’s on my 2008 model,
    gotta keep the battery fresh, a charger is a good investment,
    still running the original fuel pump,
    replaced the fuel pump relay with aftermarket job from auto lecky mate,

    fork seals leak if you pull the front down when trailering, i use the wheel brace type. bleed air all the time

    i’m big so bigger springs

    the rear brake line rubs through cases, a bit of conveyor belt fixes problem,
    fuse holder shake the crap out of fuses, they crack and cause issues, so carry spares
    connector behind headlight needs cleaning regularly , corrotion upsets the ecu,

    its never let me down on the trail, but it has chucked a wobbly in camp once or twice.

    can be a bit stally in tight stuff, the infamous Husq flame out, even the carby model do it, you learn to ride around it,

    great brakes, great light clutch
    great engine, the fitter you are the better it goes, can be really chucked around.

    i;m happy with it , but i’m not likely to buy another dirt bike (age shall not weary them, but it makes them ache a lot)

    They are predominately used to detect unregistered and stolen cars. For this purpose it is awesome, does anybody want to be on the road with unregistered/unisured cars. As for stolen cars, well no need to say more. It will also show up if the owner of the car is suspended/disqualified and the like, again who wants these people on the road.

    imagine policing this law

    its even rougher now,
    about 1/3 up it gets difficult,
    just really hard after that :woohoo:

    took me 18 goes, and half a day, but i got there, never again,

    its pretty hard on gear, especially the falling off bit, bikes tend to slide back down on their own.

    I’d love to be part of the mission, if spots still available

    suggestion:
    drop the Jindabyne – to Groggin bit, and camp and start at Tom Goggin Station, has a bunk house and accomadation for about 20-25, toilets, kitchen, shed and tools , and the manager is a bike wise man.
    AND
    MtPinnibar is at the back door, great place to start a ride.

    WTF
    try reading it again but this time with you eyes open you wally:angry:

    I quote your leading thread:
    I have been building Motors and tuning them for years, and when KTM Bull first started on this cooling system I was in no way going to have anything to do with it as I was sure manufacturers had spent Millions developing and researching cooling systems, after months of Bulls patient explaining to this stubborn one,

    I am as you were .
