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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

'85 250XC Frame To Pipe Clamp Pic

Husqvarna
B Class
Does anyone have a reference pic available of how the frame clamp attaches to the upper part of the expansion chamber? Can't find a restoration pic anywhere or even a pic from a supplier. PO has a dodgy homemade clamp he made. Just trying to make it right. Thanks!

Husky has been using a similar pipe mount assembly since about 1973. Sometimes with a M8 bolt, others with a M6 as in your case. Post a pic of your current situation.

This pic is from an 85 Husky owners manual. Looks to me like the pipe is attached to a tab thats welded to the frame. Rubber bushing required.

Thanks guys! That helped. So after a week or two of research, one magically popped up on ePay to confirm the look. Got one coming.

Vins:Third pic nailed it.
Crash: You can see the clamp wrapped around the head tube.

Thanks again!
