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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

WHAT WAS THE BEST YEAR FOR THE 430 CR AIR COOLED MOTOR?

AND WHY WAS IT THE BEST IN YOUR OPINION?

ALSO, WILL IT FIT MY 1981 430 FRAME?

THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOU INPUT.:cheers:
 
With different inserts at the swingarm and a change of the cylinder studs and top end you could choose from up to 1988. I have made my own inserts hardened them myself in caseite powder and vacuum epoxied them in place. If the cases are good you could just press them in. Maybe even just sleeve down from 14 to 12mm. Otherwise I suppose you would try and figure out when the heat treatment on the gears was best.

The last year 1982! The 1981's had some gear problems the first year.A 1983 430WR motor would be the best,very rare.
