Husky 410

[huntsman]

I just bort a Husky 410 TE off a mate, its '99 v reg, done 3200 miles, I only paid a grand which I thought was a bit of a bargain, thing is, it needs new fork seals, fine, no probs, but it also needs the rear shock sorting, as it got no fluid left and bounces up and down, need some reccommendations for repair/replacement?

The fork seals can be a diy job BUT only if you have the mechanical experiance and equipment. As for the rear it will more than likely be an ohlins unit on the husky, these are not repairable by your average bodger. Your best bet would be to search your area for an approved suspension company and get a quote from them for rebuilding both the forks and rear shock. Theses guys can also set up the suspension to suit your size, weight and riding style. Seeing as you payed peanuts for the bike it's money well spent.
