Topic: Locating Parts for a 2000 husaberg!

[knowsnothing]

Hey all, my buddy happened upon a 2000 husaberg fe 600 e.  Background -  he bartered some landscaping work for a top end job, but the guy never got around to getting the parts (piston/rings/clips/pin/gaskets) for the top end.  The bike has been sitting at his place in pieces for over a year.  He has finally decided to fix it up on his dime and ride it (might as well right).  If the guy comes back, he will make him pay for parts before he can take the bike (i doubt he will be back though). 

However, we have both been looking and parts for the bike and they are crazy hard to find (at least over here in the US).  Does anyone have an tips/ideas where to go.  Worst case, we would just need some rings and a gasket, the piston is in decent enough shape. 

Thanks!

Hey sebatje, thanks a lot!

 I actually found a place (http://www.niksindustries.com/store/wossner/husaberg.html?mode=list) that sell those Woessner pistons and they were having a 30% off piston kit sale for October!  We got the whole thing with shipping for like $130!! Waaaay better than the $600 we were quoted from a local guy!!


Now, all we need is to find a decently priced gasket set and we will be in business!
