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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1984 HUSQVARNA 240 WR Europe France

Jimspac, I put one together for my 79 and used a 82 housing and made a stainless bracket that bolted up to the three original holes in the housing. It should be on here under my build "my bad 79" I'll try and look it up for you.
 
I really like the project, it's coming out very pretty and nice. You should keep forum alive. I see no problem with it. Inbox would be much harder.
 
The 1984 250WR has the 1983 250CR cylinder porting so I imagine the 240 of that year has the same porting. We used the compression releases back in the 70's not for starting but for braking as we had 175s mostly but did not use them in our MR250s.
 
dad ran them on his CZs and big bore Yamahas SC500 & MX360 he' d shit if knew what they were worth today lets not even talk about the Penton mint 400
 
I wish I had a couple stashed from back then because we had the one way exhale only, No inhale to suck dust into your precious engine
 
Nous savons que l’Europe a le 240. J’étais en indiquant que la 240WR de 1984, que vous avez restauré probablement a le portage de 250CR 83 240 déplacement
