• 4 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     TE = 4st Enduro & TC = 4st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

First bikes will be 2017 RS500 and RS650 models. No 2Ts are currently produced or under development at SWM, but we will be visiting the factory next week and that is a topic of interest. Pricing projects to be slightly higher than comparable(?) Japanese models and substantially less than the orange and white Austrian brands.

At this time we do not have a list of "improvements" or fixes for legacy problems as discussed ad-infinitum on this and other forums. Our boss will be visiting the factory next week and we hope to have more details in the coming weeks and months.
 
Thanks for the news. Glad they are coming stateside. Very interested as it would make parts availability hopefully better.
 
I was testing sit that SWM SM500, that was like 2010 husky, but that seat was more harder then Husky stock was. Few Italian fb groups was little talk and it looks like few is disappointed that technique, i mean they was use 2010 Husky platform, so now "new" technique, but my SWM dealer was told, there is some updates. Also i have heard they are product in China, so not sure that quality, it was look good in motorcycle trade show, when i was check it, but that price range is low, so why not...
