• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

Here's one husky owner that's says the boost bottle works?

I haven't tried a boost bottle so I'm not sure if it works or not. The jury is out.
 
So thoughts on if the boost bottle works or not. The only thing different in the installation I can see is the length of the hose. Some installations don't use a hose. Does that effect the application of the boost bottle?
 
Why don't you just build one and stop asking if they work over and over again?

And no, the jury is NOT out on whether boost bottles work or not. They don't. Do you know how I know that? I was a local pro MX and A class enduro racer in the early to mid 80s and I bought all this snake oil junk thinking it would help, I bought every gimmick part you could buy and all I did was waste money I really needed to spend on gas and entry fees and maintenance parts. I bought the Roost Boost for my Honda and it did nothing but empty my wallet. Parts like the Roost Boost are a placebo, people convince themselves they work because they can't bring themselves to admit they wasted their money. The same exact thing is playing out right now with the Race Tech Emulators. The theory is good but in practice at best they are a marginal improvement over stock Husky forks and that is after you extensively modify them so they fit correctly and won't break. If you just throw them in without setting them up they are worse than stock but people can't admit that they spent $200 on a product that doesn't work.
 
The only reason I know they don't work is because of this thread... I can comprehend !
I am starting to think your just sitting back and making this stuff up so you can have a good laugh ? lol
 
Nope it doesn't work, I'll be wasting my time and money why bother. I'll let it go. On to bigger and better things.
 
IDK for sure. But as said in above posts boost bottles don't work. I was trying to look at the pros vs cons but I got more negatives.

Is that your gas tank? Do you use the boost bottle?

Is that tank for sale?
