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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1986 husqvarna cr 250

she needs some love the plan is get ready for post vintage, get all the mechical things all squared away then next winter do a frame up.
 
Cool, I look forward to seeing any other pics of the bike in the future. I'm finally about to dive into my 85 500XC project. Not sure if my health is going to allow for some actual racing, but if at all possible, that's the plan.
 
Well I change the carb and throttle and she is runing pretty good. now i need to get her put back together then i going to put a differnt back tire on it that i have, then i have to switch gears to my yz250 get it all way back to gether just so can sell it in the spring to help fund my cr250, and my cr 430 that has been in the shed for about 8 years
 
The progress well half the plastic was held on with zip ties and so was the gas tank so i fixed that.

Neat shot in the snow. Looks nice, and not far from being real nice. All the correct plastics are available, which is cool.
