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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just drill & tap that baby, a bolt and large washer and you will be good to go. Got a 72 250WR that I got as a parts bike because that's what was wrong with it. That was over twenty years ago and it's still running strong with zero problems with the crankshaft. What do you want for the engine???? i'm interested.
 
Heck I dunno... it needs crank seals and this little dilemma taken care of. But it ran (smokey) just a few days ago. Shipping's gonna be a bitch...... You guys tell me what it's worth... $5000?? ha ha h...
 
agree...drill and tap it...it will be tough...its case hardened, i did this on a 4 speed Husky many years ago,,didnt have money at the time to replace the crank stub,.so i drilled it, and taped it....a bolt and washer worked great...
ran 3 years,, sold the bike..id bet it still the same way.
USPS shipping costs the same. to HI, as it does mainland...as does AK...just take a little longer...UPS is another story.
 
Shipping USPS is the same only for "Flat Rate Priority Mail"....tough to fit a motor in an envelope or small box. But I wish you were right...we get KILLED on freight over here!
We can get UPS and FED EX Ground service though...go figure.

Bike is together...going to bed.

to bad they dont offer machinest grade sizes....
iv hardened a carbide drill with mecury to drill a broken tap before..not something id do every day..but it works...
then you can always use a broken tap extractor...just used mine yesterday
 
The nice thing about the mad dog bits is that they exchange the dulled and/or broken bits for $1.00 each for life. I have returned many broken and dulled bits and never have a problem. I am very impressed with them.
 
I'm selling the 390CR motor...almost complete...no clutch or gears on the left side. Ran but needs a case seal...smoked a bunch. Oh and the pesky bolt problem that started this thread. P.m. me if interested.
