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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

92 WR360 thoughts and comparison to a 07 WR250...

I did see a very clean looking 95 360 on Columbus, Ohio craigslist yesterday. Don't know how to post ad but it looks to be very original, maybe minus one left side number plate. I do believe the kickstand breaks those left side plates. Ok, here's my old 93 next to 87 WR250 and 88 WRK 125.

Those are some nice clean bikes.....
your bike is really nice, thats the kind of bike I will look for when I want to get another bike. The 87 and 88 look real good too. They all look well taken care of.

My bike was almost like new, a few weeks ago when I bought it, the PO kept it up and rarely rode it since he bought it new.

Wow no kidding, awesome score. :thumbsup:
 
Finding older (and newer) bikes at a reasonable price and in very good shape is one very cool aspect of dirt biking ... Seems ESP true of Huskies ... It seems there is always a gem sitting in a garage somewhere waiting to be brought out into the snow and rain again ...

The bikes you guys have shown on this thread are so cooll... I'd hate to crash them any ...
 
Had a 360 back in the day. Liked the tractor like power! Seems if I remember right my byddy boiled it over in the Black Hills, but my 250 did not boil over. Alot of vibration but ALOT of power! Have fun............
 
Sorry guys, just cant accept the 2 stroke banter. The older smokers were either on or off the pipe. When on pipe you had to ride your but off. When off pipe they were awful. lack of engine compression down a long wet clay hill really induces huge amounts of fear. Sure they are fun but in the really techno, rocky gnarly steep stuff I'll take a quality 4 banger to torgue me out of trouble. I fondly remember my 92 Yammy TT 350 what a tractor. Couldn't kill it with an axe.
I ride with several KTM 300's technically sound riders but they have to really ride much harder on steep ascents. On broken country they are very quick but steep up and down gradients seem to bugger them

To each his own. I own both and they both have plus's and minuses. These old 2 strokes 360 do pull like 4 strokes. I prefer my WR165 over almost anything in the woods and have ridden and owned and ridden many 4 strokes including new 250 / 310 and my 511.
 
What only one response!! I am very dissapointed thought I might get a better rise. Confession time I am restoring a 1973 Ossa ISDE 250 smoker. Always loved the Bulti's. Monti's, Ossa's Huskies, Maiko's and CZ's of the late 60's 70'2 and 80's. The 60's early is when I started on chopped BSA Bantam's, DKW 250's the Cotton's (villiers motors) then into the Spanish stuff. I think its the ring ding and the smell that got me in-love that Castrol stuff..
