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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Estimated values for a 1987 husqvarna wr250 and a 1978 husqvarna cr125

I will have to keep digging for a piston. If i had a template or dimensions I can cut this one down i am about to receive. I would like to have the correct piston.
 
The case is probably ok to use, but a replacement water pump shaft and kickstarter pawl and spring would be a must.

Piston measurements of my original Mahle 66.50 piston are as follows,
Measurement A 49mm
Measurement B 64mm
Width of opening 22mm
Height of opening 19mm

I didn't modify the skirt length, just made the cutout deeper, I like the idea of a longer skirt keeping things square.
