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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

84 CR250 Issues?

Life happened.
Company mergers and other nonsense has left me with little time for this project or riding my new FC350 and FE350s......coming soon garage sale!
 
Hey Scott, whats happening....miss that '86 CR250 got from you few years back, its long gone...... seen '83 KTM 250 you had for sale, traded my Marty Smith replica Cagiva for an '83 back when stationed at Ft Hood in '84.....hows the '84 Husky coming ? take care--Rhett
 
Old thread back from the dead?!!

The 84 CR250s are fast but super peaky. I have just had a barrel modified to the tech notes spec so going to be interesting to see how that performs back to back with a bike running the stock porting.
 
Hi Darren
I've been lusting after your CR250's for a few months now, they look awesome. I have a complete bike I picked up at Mid-Ohio and also a complete parts bike with what I believe is the Husky Products pipe. At some point I plan on doing the cylinder mods, let us know how they work.

Scott be nice to see the HP pipe?

That's kind of you re my bikes :cool:

Forgot to say the 84 CR250s handle amazingly. I hoping the porting changes make it easier to keep the bikes on the 'pipe'. But one part of the mod is opening up inlet ports so it may make it even more aggressive. I had to try it though on one bike!! :D

I bought a rear brake off ebay the other day $30. Tend to buy them when I see them.....

I also have a 3rd 250 at home but not sure what to do with it at the moment? Maybe fit a CR500 LC engine ?? :eek:
