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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

2014 Husqvarna line

Yep Yep! That is what I was thinking when I read the new Huskabergs would have the missing link. Being pretty like you said don't hurt either :D.
 
Kinda surprised that they went with the linkage with the new Katoomaberg as a buddy who has won a few GNCCs overall always thought that the Husaberg was THE bike, and he was paid by KTM to race. He beat Knighter straight up on his best day so I respect his opinion. Personally I never liked the PDS but I'm a Plumber. I'll buy another Huskie, I started liking them when America did not even have an MX track. Yep a Huskie man racing in the Golden Masters class. Love it.
 
For the last two week I haven't been riding, just reading. Getting hot about the new huskies, thinking a 250 would be the ticket... A little more jam coming out of corners. Yesterday I finally got out on the 144. I was nothing but smiles and thinking to myself how great the bike is....up until I hit the tree LOL. I'm going to have to have a real test ride before I commit. The 144 is hard to beat.

The 300 huskaberg is going to be a huge seller. All my KTM friends are bubbling with excitement that they can finally get the 300 off road model with a linkage and the fact that it looks amazing does not hurt either.

Ain't that a cool, weird side effect of the cross breeding? ... Probably more side-effects in all this to come forth as more and more Huskies are produced and raced ...

I'm really thinking if the Husky bikes get priced correctly, they might cut into the sales numbers on the other bikes initially, and then start a ball rolling that can't be stopped and orange bikes take a licking in the 1st world sales ...

SP pretty much controls all this (I guess?) and can point the coolest stuff to a Husky if that is what he wants ...
 
In a year from now Husqvarna will have a lot of new converts as far as I can see-- Racing sells bikes --That's what SP will do like he did with KTM --Get good riders on them and WIN races --we all win in the end --Heard that they will be flying some in to South Africa just for the Roof Of Africa to launch and race them --the shipments will follow -- Thinking of getting two 310 TE's for me and my girlfriend when they sell them off to make room for the new bikes --nice addition to my current stable ;)
 
LoL...the funny thing about the new Husky's is that the old KTM Husky haters will probably buy the new Huskabergs and likewise with the Husky KTM haters....funny old world!!

Another little wedge on the "Wheel of Fortune".... A '14 TE250 will be in my stable of Huskys next year!

If I were smart and could wait until Jan/Feb when all the bikes are out and then make the purchase one of these would be on my spinning wheel :D. I'm as bad at waiting as I am making a decision on which bike. BTW I think this bike would make a nice addition to any stable.
