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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

You need 3500 litres of air through airbox to feed a 500 at full song. Not a job for any type of fan
 
What would 3500 liters be in cfm's? 3500 liter = 123.6 cfm.

It's a tad more wattage. A restat on the throttle cable for controlling the speed of the fan.

The muffin fans. I think any boost in the air box would help. I could be wrong. We would need a few rubber windows. Some that open for too much pressure and some that close for not enough pressure. Just to figure it out.
I guess I have too much time on my hands.

i doubt anyone is doing differently. feel free to correct if i try to talk about installing slide stuffers in a mikuni vm in a thread where we discuss types of smart carbs. if i also start to guess at part fitment, continuously ask a question thats been answered for me, wonder whether boost bottles work, or post incorrect factual information...i would hope someone corrects that too. my feelings wont be hurt.

Just cuss some dude has pmt doesn't mean adults can't talk bill, feel free to post I personally like expanding my knowledge and appreciate the wisdom others have to share.
Wasnt it Einstein that said knowledge is power?.
 
DaveM thanks for the kind words.

I repeat the jetting figuring a newbie here might want info but are afraid to post and ask. I don't think of it as spamming. I like my spam fried. I go off sometimes thinking something's can relate down the road to each other. It's info you can put in the bank.

Some of us have so many bikes I can't dump $$ into every bike so jetting a mikuni with a UFO is as good as it gets with porting.

I don't cut n past. Sorry.

If you have any personal comments anyone wants to say to me just message me and we'll correct it. I don't want to see anyone spam this forum. Let's keep it within the family.
