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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husqvarna Magazine Tests/Comparisons From The Past

Maybe this could be done as a "Sticky" as a place to post scans, or links of any Husqvarna related test or comparo articles. Searching for old articles can be a chore and time consuming BUT, I know many here have stacks of old magazines that have many write-ups on Husky's. While it would take a little time to scan them, the effort wiould be greatly appreciated by most here I'm sure. Reading old forgotten or never seen articles is always nice, and for those restoring to various levels the photos would help too. I bet many have some rare stuff?;)And it might save everybody a little money by not having to search for the issues they are looking for and then buying them? I'm collecting various mags with articles from 1991 (the year of my bike) and will scan and post those as my contribution.
Maybe a good idea, maybe not? :)
 
I like it. Reference material like that is hard to find and very nice to have access to and makes a great site like this even better.
