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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Anyone interested in Husky swingarm axle sliders?

He will definitely sell them all. can anyone on here verify that they will fit the 449/511 bikes. If so, I will be in. Him, nor I, could figure out whether or not they will fit.
 
I just went to the parts catalog for the 2012 te449/511 and on page 79 the axle blocks are there and the part #'s match (8000-9641 and 8000-9644. They will fit for sure. Hall's has the parts and service manuals for Husky's if you need a source.
 
"all but killed" - if this is actually dead, I'd like my money back. If it's not dead, and will be proceeding, (please!) then let's get it rolling. Having done this myself in the past - (for alfa romeo parts) I only had 5 committed orders - went ahead and ran 15 units, and ended up selling them all. People are generally more willing to put their money down once the product is built and in people's hands.

Definitely not dead my friend and you will get your dough back if indeed I don't get the 20 required pre-orders by June 31. I'm specifically trying to keep a low profile about all this here on CH so as not to raise anymore ire amongst the vendors. I will be updating the pre-order count over on SMJ. Thanks again to all for their interest.
 
Never mind me being negative. I'm still quite hopeful that this will happen. Just feeling a bit down about the way this was handled. If a vendor wants to make this product or it's equal I don't think any of us would mind. But rather than stepping up and saying so it seems there were back room complaints.
 
If your thinking about these be sure to pull the trigger on a PRE-ORDER so that these can get made! Details in first post! It would suck to see this not come together! If your a vendor and want to bitch about grass roots getting things done, step up and make contact!

To check and see if they fit a particular year/model go to Halls Husqvarna's website (http://www.halls-cycles.com/default.asp?page=catalogs) you can access all the different part catalogs. If the axle blocks for your year/model have these part numbers left axle block part# is 8000 96941 and the right is 8000 96944

all Husky 4 strokes from 2001 to 2012. Including the 610 and 630.
2012 te449/511 - likely the other years too.

Is this offer still going on? Will these fit a sm630 2011 ?
 
We're up to 8 pre-orders with three or so months to go.......... if your thinking about it get off the fence and get your order in!
 
How much for shipping to Australia?
I'm shipping two sets there next week one to Melbourne and the other to Sydney....if you live in either of those places, maybe I can ship yours together with the other buyer's and save you both a few bucks. Shipping two sets cost the same as 1 set. Without your address I can't say for sure, but the shipping cost to the 2 cities listed above is $25.

please note: Coffee (Husky Cafe admin) prefers that we conduct biz elsewhere than here (vendor politics) so please contact me directly here; scoboniATcomcastDOTnet or through Supermoto Junkie.

Thanks for your interest
 
id love some. how much would it involve getting them to aus, and they fit front and back?
These sets are for the rear only. Shipping to Aus. is $25. Order before May 1 if you want to take advantage of the $105 "pre-order price" (price goes up to $120 after that). Spare puck sets are $20.

Thanks for your interest!
 
OK guys here's the deal. I've had an in depth conversation with Ross and these sliders are available.
Please keep in mind that Ross in not in the business of making motorcycle parts; he originally made these for himself but there was enough interest in them that he consented to make a small production run to satisfy a need so they may not be available much longer, if you want a set you should get on board now.
One thing I would ask of everyone is that you should contact Ross directly via the PM system with questions about availability, delivery, ect.
Alternatively Ross also has some info available at SMJ. http://www.supermotojunkie.com/show...hafer-of-six-ninedesign&p=1652066#post1652066
Remember guys, as Husky riders we are relatively small community and as such we should all appreciate when someone steps up with a nice set-up to fill a particular gap.
