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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just wanted to say that I had an enjoyable discussion with Philip from Husqvarna-parts.com regarding these shocks he's selling.

We discussed at length what he does to build them (they aren't stock) and more importantly the set up with his shock tech. Anyone on the forum running them now? Would love the feedback!

While the price is up there I am 90% sure I'll be ordering a set soon (watch for my regular Ohlins on sale here).
 
Hi, I had Phillip just build me a set for a 1981-490 Maico I am building. I havent had a chance to try them out yet.

Hi, im ordering a set from Phillip, did you order a longer then stock lenght on the shocks?
 
Is there an advantage to going long? Steepen the rake maybe? If so what's the target shock length or rake please? Thks
