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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

The closest to OEM is the shinny stuff sold by husqvarna-parts.com

..............personally, the last thing i wanted was the gloss plastic type. The tank and air box which was all i kept on this resto for instance, i cleaned back to white, but 'flat-ish' white is how it came out so the DC plastic blended in perfectly. A buddy went the gloss route....................ended up spraying his tank, as it stuck out like a sore thumb, it looked amazing, for about a week.

They have the biggest selection of plastic for old mx bikes out there.......................even had plastic for my Can Am 500!
 
if you call and talk to the guy, and ask him if he has any seconds or blems..you get a pretty good deal, he takes paypal. and ships fast.
my bikes are nice, but far from show bikes, the plastic looks great, and wears well.
and if i trash it...less then 50.00 i can get another.
 
I have plactic from all the different vendors and by far the best in my opinion is Vintage Husky. One of the few places to get OEM type fenders for a 75. I even put them on my 76 and getting one for my 77 390CR cause they look so darn good.

These guys have some great stuff. Do they speak good English or do I need an interpretor? ;)

I use email with English to Italian translation for correspondence - works for me.
 
most peeps who advertise like this will use some sort of translator...babble fish etc..
I bought a seat cover for my Bull....from a deygo (I'm deygo too calm down)...and he was able to translate enuf to get thru the transaction.
Really need some sort of program like babble fish stuff to do biz on the net.
I also look for car parts all over tar-nation...there too the translator helps..
some words sneak in....and dont get translated..but you can get by
