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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

hey guys, I'm new to the forum and glad I found it...I'm resurrecting my 76' WR250 and want to put on a Mikuni kit but see there are options of using a 36 or 38mm...any suggestions on which is best?......anyone ever use a Keihin on this era Husky?...I would love to find some porting specs also!

and any thoughts on how an aftermarket CR pipe would work on this WR?

thanks very much
 
hard to beat that Bing...if you learn how to clean and adjust it, they are a bare bones work horse of a carb,,,same thing for the pipe....
if it aint broke...dont fix it..
 
I put a 36mm Mikuni on my 75' WR250 and really liked the results . It made the bike easier to start and gave better throttle response in my opinion . I also like the Mzb ignition , Boyesen reeds , and ProForm Racing pipe that eventually ended up on the bike .
 
thanks halffast....did you buy a Mikuni kit or just acquire the different parts yourself?....I'm curious on what shocks you are using?
