Hello, I am new to the forum, just wanted to say hi. Been a big h2 fan for a long time, never ridden a street version always just hillclimb versions. Like all the tech info here and aftermarket stuff. Just thought I would post a few pics on what I ride. This was a new build this winter, motor used to be in a older frame. Its a 2005 Husaberg 550 frame that was modified to fit the triple of course. Run Starfire ignition and flat slide mikuni carbs off a 800 ski-doo. Unit runs on 100% methonal sometimes a mix of 5 to 10 % nitromethane if altitude permits, I dont like rejetting :). Pipes were hand built to fit. Bike rips and is alot of fun, only real problem that I get now is ignition pickups, I use factory ones and have problems every now and then with them. If anybody knows of a good replacedment that is redialy available would be great, I can modify or fabricate anything to make it work. Anyways, I'll stop yaking and post some pics.

I like RB's part number on the front plate just to know what to do in case of emergency!

Haha, I thought I had one of a kind, thats awsome. You do many hillclimbs a year with it? Have you ever taken it to the mount impossible in France?
Those who were wondering about the pipes, they are all wrapped in header wrap for heat projection from electronics and they say you gain a bit of performance from keeping the heat in your pipe, blah blah blah, i dunno for sure. I do know that wrapping 2 stroke pipes is VERY hard because of the tapers.

In the UK the emergency number would be 999, not 911..........
