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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

New Facebook group is over the top.

I have liquids but bits and pieces.

There's another Husqvarna section on Facebook for swedish Husqvarna bikes only.

Facebook is good I talk with the cousins and grammar school kids I grew up with that haven't seen in probably 56 years.
 
There is bikes for sale there too all brands each brand has its own forum and following. If you follow things there the older Suzuki’s, Kawasaki’s, Yamaha’s, etc have been growing in populatity I guess the vintage and post vintage racing is bigger than I thought.

Don't think it's been mentioned, but Steve's facebook site has all of the old Husky Club Newsletters uploaded in the "file" section. Great resource available again!

Yeah, I'm the guilty party, I had downloaded them not long before the tech section died suddenly and thought everyone should still have access to them since there is nowhere to put them back up on CH. Also a few parts manuals and workshop manuals.

Awesome rare parts and cheap like McDonald's extra value menu.

the shock and swingarm from the 87 CR are still up for grabs lol
 
My 82 500 has a 2 piece intake with a 44 mm carb, rubber part is a 2 bolt pattern.
Found a pic of the 84 XC 40 mm intake, seems much shorter.
The one in the box looks like it fits the big reed cage, but so much taller.
