Title: The Harris Scrambler goes Blue
Post by: Bill Harris on September 04, 2014, 08:42:52 pm

Sten Lundin, 1959 and 1961 500cc World Motocross Champion, won the championship in 1959 on a blue Monartk.  In 1961 He painted his blue Monartk green and raced it as a Lito.  The Harris Scrambler was green and now it's blue.  There is no relationship between Sten Lundin's Monartk and the Harris Scrambler, but they both were at one time green and at another time blue, that's all.  Sten loved his blue Monartk and I love my blue Harris Scrambler.  I'm just saying.

Bill, that is a serious upgrade for the Harris Scrambler.  Looks better than ever.  Did you get your green tank repainted, or is entirely new?  Paint job looks very well done.

Ace, thanks.
