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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

'82 Husky 430CR, what's next?

I don't know what to paint the frame. I could keep it standard, but I think that I want to branch out. I really think that I will have the most problem with the motor. I don't want some standard cissy motor. I want someone to think the motor came from Hell! lol
 
hey, great idea. iwould go yellow with the frame. (swedish yellow) and do the motor in blue. split the engine cases, balance the crank,stuff the balance holes, match the case transfers to the barrel carefully and check the old husky bulletins for porting advice. get nice pipe made along with a alloy muffler. check timming carefully and hang on!!
