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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

have a stupid question but any help appreciated. have a 1976 wr360 and in need of the carb to airbox rubber. they're available for order on the net, but wondering if i can sort a diy replacement for the time being. obviously the dilemma is that the rubber is two different sizes. thanks
 
johnnyandluther,
Some times you can get away with rubber pipe adapter, there made to match up two different size diameter pipes, there available
in many hardware & plumbing supply stores.
Just make sure you get good seal on both ends, or you'll suck dirt in & that can real expensive :banghead:.

I kind of have this issue to, the airbox boot is dry rotting but it's not poking through yet, would wrapping it in electrical tape be an acceptable solution?
