Newbie Hey all. Finally found a site that I hope will be of great value as I attempt to get my old '83 500 XC lit up again. It's been sitting unloved for too long now. We've got plent of desert here in Central Washington, just what an XC loves.
New to the group Well just wanted to introduce myself. I live in Flagstaff AZ. I am looking for a Husky right now. Have one in San Diego (05 TE510) that is within my budget. I am currently riding a DRZ 400 and have been through DR 650, Husaberg 650, KTM 450 exc, KX 500 and RMX 250. I am looking for something with more power and less weight than the DRZ but nothing near the Husaberg 650 (death machine for me ). If anyone is in the Alpine CA area and would not mind looking at a bike for me, please contact me and I will forward you the info of the owner. Thanks. Darrin
I'm sorry to hear this, Tom. Post up about it in the 4-stroke forum and maybe one of our members can help you figure out what's going on. WoodsChick
Finally posting on this site been registered for a while 2005 plated TE450, LTR suspension, motosportz damper

Just bought my first Husky. '09 TXC250. The previous owner might be around here somewhere so big thanks to Matt. Looking forward to learning all there is about this bike and having a hell of a time on it.
Welcome to CafeHusky, alaskan husky I can't answer your questions, but there are some very smart folks in the Vintage Forum here that would be more than happy to fill you in on your new scoot! WoodsChick
Hello!!! Hi all. Just signed up to the site today....just bought a brand new 2009 (leftover) Husky TE450 last thursday. I must say I am glad to find this site. Things are pretty sparce as far as info on these bikes goes when searching the web compared to the Japanese bikes and KTM's etc. so I was starting to get worried. Hopefully this site will have all the info I am looking for and will need in the future. Looking forward to diving in to the info on this site. I am sure glad it exists!!
Hey all! Just came over after hearing good things on Thumper Talk. Not a Husky owner yet...but soon! Can't wait though!
Just regd after lurking since buying my TE310 in Dec '09. Love the 2 year warranty hear in Oz. Used to race enduros in the 70s on a WR250 then a WR360 and had a few other Jap 4Ts between then and now. Live in Sydney and teaching my 15yr old son to ride the old XR which has a 280 kit and still goes well at 21 years old hehe. Graeme
Mid-Michigan Husky hellos! Hey! Just joined the community today. I just picked up a '79 OR 250 off of Ebay, and will be attempting a restoration on it. I used to race a 250 WR back in the 70's - There's NOTHING like sitting on a Husky! I look forward to being part of the group! Husqrat
Great site, with useful info. My first husky was a 1983 wr500, have had umpteen since, all two strokes. My favourite was the '86 430Auto. I'm in great company at this site, thanks! Palito
Hi all! Old school Huslky rider, a 4 speed 400 back in the day. I've got a 1973 125WR I'm restoring at the moment.
