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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I am sure Andy just added a long sought alternative. I welcome it.

That can also be sleeved with a 400 LC sleeve and give you all the 400 oversizes. Then it can be simply bored to 430 and use all the 430 oversizes. Keep all old pistons so you can start over at 400 again and bore to fit to previous viable pistons
 
Don't forget guys that we are off to Australia for the A4DE at the end of next week(24th Mar). The webshop will still work in our absence, but no orders will be dispatched whilst we are away.

Back on the 16th of April.

Here is a pic of the bike that Rob Shoemark has prepared for me to ride - Looks FAST**************************************** I will be looking more 'Retro' than that though.

Thanks Rob!
