Hi everyone! New guy here in Greenville, SC. Just picked up a '76 250 WR. Trying to diagnose a no-spark issue, but I'll create a new thread for that.
hello people, new from New Zealand just brought my first 4 stroke and first husqvarna a 2008 tc250 147 hours for $1280 nzd
Howdy from the Colorado Rockies! Just sold my Yamaha WR450 and replaced it with a TE630 ... then it started snowing, so my shakedown ride is on hold. Really excited for this bike! As it stands when I bought it it has a Husky skid, Husky rack, EMS airbox prefilter, Acerbis handguards, and a full titanium Leo Vince exhaust. I'm planning on heated grips, lithium battery, Tubliss, and probably leaning toward Pirelli MT43 tires. I'm not going to go with the Safari tank but I've seen a couple Rotopax side racks that I might look into further instead.
Hello from MN. I am new to the Husky world but have had a lot of other bikes and am looking forward to playing with this one. I just purchased a 2009 TE250 and anxious to start learning about it. Here is a pic of the new toy.

I still riding street bike ( 06 gsxr 750) but its not street legal i doing Track days and amateur racing at NJMP mostly. So 4 stroke its new bike for me and I just start learning about it.
G'day guys, my name is Phil and I've been addicted to adventure riding for 6 years now. No matter how hard I try I can't seem to shake it. I've found myself here at Cafe Husky because in my quest to find the perfect adventure bike, I ended up on a plane from Melbourne to Emerald Queensland (approximately 2000km) to purchase a 2007 TE610 with all the bells and whistles. The seller who shall remain nameless for now, had done a lot to the bike including installing a Safari tank, meerkat mod to the exhaust and JD jetting to suit, new piston, new cam chain, Indy washers in the clutch basket, Baja Cyclops headlight, pivot pegs, stainless braided break hoses and the list goes on. (Sorry no photos yet Im having trouble with picasa) Unfortunately he no longer had time to ride the beast and so passed it on to me to break it in. I got myself an unregistered vehicle permit and proceeded to ride it back to Melbourne. Mostly on sealed roads except a 200km detour down a beautiful lumpy bumpy dirt road south west of Emerald through cattle country. She was riding with ease and handled ride well. About 1000kms South out the back of Bourke I had to do an emergency break for a couple Kangaroos and when I came to a stop a puff of white smoke came up from under the tank. I inspected the bike and saw coolant had leaked everywhere including the exhaust. With a suspected blown head gasket and no phone reception i pressed my help button on my spot tracker which sent a msg to a fellow ADVrider. Who organised a tow back to Bourke (nth central NSW). He then jumped in his land cruiser with a trailer and drove 900km in 9 hours to pick me and my new husky up. All I can say is thanks mate your a true friend I owe you big time. I'm back in Melbourne now with the engine out and nearly completely dismantled. It was definitely a blown head gasket, I'm going to slit the crankcase and make sure no critical damage was done and zip it back together. I'm not blaming the previous owner, he feels bad but has been very helpful and has been assisting in anyway he can to get her back on the adventure trail. It's all part of the adventure and I'm still proud to be a Huskvarna owner and looking forward to the learning process of an engine rebuild. Thanks for reading and speak to you all soon. Cheers Phil.

Returning to dirt after many miles on the street and just picked up a 2010 TE450. Sad to say I have more questions than answers so get ready for a PITA.
Hey guys, if I've posted here its been a while. I've got a 99 TE410 that I want to put up for sale. can't seem to find the section. Thanks for the help
hi Ive just bought a TE310, maybe a 2011. I live in Guangdong China and this is what we get up to, we ride some beautiful logging roads, single track forest trails and enter the odd enduro race. I've always ridden Chinese dirt bikes and the husky is my first 'proper' bike. Apart from normal greasing and lubing does the bike have any quirks or things i should be paying special attention to?
Hi folks, not my first post but it takes me a bit to catch on! I'm getting a bit too old and out of shape to be a real dirt bike guy these days. I owned a '71 CR250 that I amateur MX raced in the early 70s, had a 73 wr250 a friend bought new before selling it to me several years later, it was a trail bike, my wife learned to ride on too. I also purchased a new 1977 CR390 back in the day, sold it with low hours back in '92 and still kick myself. No husky bikes for me for years. I have a KLX 250 and a DR650 as the most dirty bikes in the stable and since I see my depleted skills, I decided to buy a TE449 from a buddy. I haven't done much with it yet besides some jeep roads but I am excited to practice and work at what I can do! Great site. Thanks for having so much information on my new toy all in one place!
