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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1988 WRlc 430 SM

I prefer slightly warmed the crankcase with an hot air gun for example, then block with a key the extremity of the threaded tool and with a big key tighten the nut, the bearing is pulled out extremely smoothly and easily.

Tools are also adapted for removing the needles bearing from swing arm.

I bought it on ebay for around 40$, it come from India, probably a copy but sold as LML tools, whatever, you can easely found the genuine one on US web sites Vespa's spare parts for around 60$.

I hope it will help someone ;-)
 
Hi all! Some news of my project.

I purchase some parts and waiting for delivery: 3,5"x17" and 5"x17" Bihr black rims, white plastik front head ligth mask (KTM EXC 14), and from HVA 450 FS 15: White front fender and hand guard, yellow bottom fork guard.


and received others parts: front hub (KTM 125 07), front wheel spokes (ktm ref 50309071175), rear Wheel sprocket side spacer ( ref KTM 58310417200), rear Wheel disk side spacer ( ref ktm 58410017000) and rear sprocket 40T (ref ktm 58310151040).

Good news, premounting is very good, the sprocket side spacer put brake disk and sprocket in right position with break caliper support and front sprocket without any modification.
Only the length of disk side spacer shall be reduced by machining of about 10mm to fit properly the rear wheel.

:-D
