While I was down in Arizona enjoying the holidays with my family, my dad mentioned that his friend Larry Ragland had a 1983 Husqvarna 510 TE that he really wanted to get started. The bike has been parked for 40 years, as an ignition problem with the bike causes it to stop running once it gets too hot. After hearing the story, I immediately thought this would make for an interesting video, so I tagged along with my camera and enjoyed watching two old guys wrench together, lending a hand when necessary. My dad rode one of these bikes for 4 years back in the day, so it was awesome to see him fire this one up and enjoy a bit of nostalgia. Larry is a 5time winner of the Baja 1000 and has an impressive list of accomplishments. Thanks to Larry for letting me document and share this experience!
