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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

250 Mag steering bearings

I know I have seen it somewhere, but, I can't find it. I need loose bearings for the triple clamp steering for a stock 250 Mag. What size, how many for top and bottom and Thanks. Jeff
 
It will be 3/16 or 4mm balls and count the balls you have. Check the races for damage. I have a removed set if you need it
 
Thanks. Races are fine. Cages are shot. Going with loose balls. Hmmmm, loose balls just doesn't sound right.
 
Without the cages you'll need good grease and fine needle-nose pliers to get them set in those small races...and a steady hand to feed the lower clamp/stem up through the steering head so they don't end up on the floor!
I also check the play before every ride/race...without the cage you don't want them getting loose.
