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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Send pics, there's a lot of people here who know well huskys ! :)
 
If it is air cooled, then count the number of cooling fins on the cylinder, 6-250, 9-430, 10-500. If liquid cooled, you should see a stamp on top of the head as I recall indicating engine size.

We love pictures, so post up.
 
All of the parts you will need are in stock. Regardless of it being 250, 430 or 500cc!

We have all the pistons in all the oversizes. Go to www.hva-factory.com and download a free parts manual to help you.
These are the bikes we regularly race, so dont be afraid to ask for help.
Daily shipping worldwide by DHL means you get your bits normally in about 3 days!

Kind regards,

Andy Elliott (hva-factory owner)
