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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

How many air cooled XC500's out there?

Man that excuse is getting old:lol:
Man, you've got that right! Kinda like beating a dead horse isn't it? Believe it or not, I did actually buy a new crank seal for the clutch side, but it turned out to be the wrong size so back to square one until I get a replacement. That's the last thing to do, exhausting all other possibilities, before I pull the top end and take a look-see inside. Just too many other things demanding my attention lately.

One of these days I'll post a UREKA! message when she finally lights up. By the way, the CR is going to get a good workout next week so maybe that'll spur me on to dig back into the XC again.
