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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

390 Or > Clutch Wont Disengage

Hi,
Today, I was working on re-jetting my bike (1980 390 OR) and took it for a spin for about 10 min. Suddenly clutch started to not disengage - There was always drag just like being in first gear and releasing the clutch.
I did ride the bike bunch of times before this and never happened before.

Only difference i would notice is; today was very hot day compare to before. ( 84F ) - Not sure if this would make difference?
Transmission Oil > Honda HP Trans Oil SAE 80W/85W

as an extra;
Is there anyone that has the Owner' Manual for one of the years between 1978-1980 (I only have owner's manual for 390 Auto)
I would like to check basic clutch setup...adjusting cable...etc

Thank you
