• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 to Mount a Tank

Guys: Lame-O question. I am trying to figure out how to secure the rear end of a 74 250 Mag tank. I have a rubber strap with hooks on either end, but I can't make sense of how it goes. What do the hooks attach to? A picture would be awesome.

Thanks Marc
 
Don't use it, go down to Home Depot and get some heavy-duty zip ties to secure from the rear tab. Also make sure you have the thick backbone frame rubber mounts so the tank doesn't touch anywhere otherwise it'll vibrate & split.

Excellent advice!!!
 
hook on frame.......hook on tank.......real simple.......in line with tank back bone. I use some black tape to secure the backbone rubbers to frame. Used a zip tie once and it almost rubbed through the tank........those zips are tough!
