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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husqvarna
A Class
anyone comming to Co, for the Nat, on Sept 18-19??
ill be there, and will have a few Husky projects and parts FS in the Pits.
 
they used to,,i won it in 2001, totally suprised me.. i was the last guy out, and the first guy in..on a bike i had never rode before, an 83 Husky 430.
i remember passing guys like a parking lot on the back straight of the property.
6th gear flat out, i remember the speedo working, and seeing the needle at 70..
ahhhh those were the heathy knee days lol...
i remember comming in on the last lap, and the guy marking my helmet, saying thats it, your done...really? weres everyone else?? your the first rider in. lol...i had the no shit? look..
dayum...then i remember passing a few guys 3 times.. i felt like super man for a day...
i think the cattails and swamp area weeded out a lot of riders, i took them wide and fast,, most guys went through the middle and never got out the end.
something to be said for a little luck..
 
I agree with the luck thing! Come to think about it... LOL!!

I have ridden many RMEC enduro's up there when I lived in the Springs... makes me want to move back!!
 
not many Enduros here anymore, bunny huggin tree kissin types have ruined that.
that and not many {real} time keepers anymore, just ride fast...dont worry bout that clock....that was the hard part...dont come in to early...or late...race the clock..
 
That's a shame... in 40 years of riding, the RMEC has had the toughest, most beautiful place I have ridden and it was the only time I was beaten by a "kid"... his last name was Smith... Malcolm's son and it was his first enduro!!:eek:
