• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

OK ya that chain I'm seriously thinking about that I really like this bike I used to stare in the windows at one as a kid and 35 yes later I have one I could be riding for 1500 and I'd be fast. And dependable if it wasn't for that stupid previous owner ,anyone know who rebuilds motoplat stators???
 
I am sorry , I just can't see it being worth that much. I am trying to help so please don't take this the wrong way. Maybe try and ask the members here what they think it could be worth. Unfortunately these older bikes just don't bring the money most people think , but in a way that is good for the guys that really want them . They are still affordable to buy and restore . I have one of those barum tires on a wheel too, try and get it off once ... They have to be cut off, just no good any more. A guy can buy one like this between 800 and 1200 and sink about 2500 into it , doing all the work him self to save money and enjoy his project and still can't sell it for 3000 . Better off to trade it for something you want ? hope this helps you and your plan to get rid of it , please don't think I am being judgemental toward you .
 
there are still bunnies out there so keep your fingers crossed but it looks like 800 to me. good luck
 
i agree 100% after i saw some stuff on ebay i was hopeful then i saw stuff tank id like to rebuild it just for the fun but thats just not doable now and i cant figure out how to edit the ad the website is overly complex ill make a deal but i do think 1200 is fair
