• 2 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     WR = 2st Enduro & CR = 2st 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!

All 2st Please post pictures of your 2 stroke bikes.

Yeah juicy u know me all class. Stubby holders are easy to steal off mates n work well with zip ties plus use grip donuts all the time. Anythin to save sum money to buy real parts haha!

Rode them bikes?!! U used my 300 as a battering ram against any n every tree/log in your path then proceeded to slide it down limestone quarry walls multiple times-dirt bike baby Jesus cried many times those coupla days!!!

Haha nah jus shittin man all good when u back over here? Had an epic get off where we went riding the other day. 4th gear pinned on 165(50-60kph) in the sand whoops, hit a log(tried monoin over it but rear wheel slammed too hard) n got ejected into tree. Snapped both Handguards but otherwise 165 was sweet. Me on the other hand still have sore ribs/back/sternum. No breaks but lucky! Ko'd meself for a minute. Misus not happy told her ill slow down. But scary really coulda busted meself up big time!

Nah he's jus a boily rob. Fellas from Perth trail scene forum put me onto him. His kids race so always fixin pipes plus bit of cash on the side for him! If ya want it done post ya pipe to me n I'll drop it off n pick it up then post it back to ya no worries. He's not too far from my old girls place so easy enough as I'm always up there to go to airport for work. I'm gonna get my 165 pipe done too soon as I caved in the header section coupla weeks ago. $220 he quoted me for that as gottà be acid washed to get zinc/nickel platin off first. Bit exy but come up a treat! Not sure what postage cost ya but might be worth checkin with some local guys if they can do it? Pm me if ya wanna send it over.

It was a good 6 months ago I got it done so hopefully he hasn't jacked his prices up! 125 pipe cost me $70 n looks beautiful!!!

Thanks champ, I'll have a look see over here and if I can't find anyone, I may hit you up. Pipe has only one decent hit, but the salt air has rust starting to show through the black paint and I'm too tight just to buy a new one. Can't remember what pipe I even have on it to be honest.
 
Old mate reckons short of it bein run over by a truck he can fix any pipe! Only thing with bare look is ya gotta give it a scotch brite wen cleanin after a ride then coat in wd40 to stop surface rust showin. Takes 2 min!

No worries mate jus let me know
 
Not for a while shawry, visiting old mate in SA next see how hes getting on with his husaberg 300.
Broke both handguards you were lucky then, you can't afford to slow down in them woods! Do you even get it outta third ;)
Pleased its only your pride that took the real battering.
 
It was actually on a straight whooped out section from the A4DE(Aussie 4 day enduro-kinda small version of ISDE) from 2013 so yeah into 4th. Yeh lucky didn't snap wrists. She cartwheeled well I'm told. Dunno bout jus pride being hurt, I sneezed the other day n nearly cried!!!:(
 
She looks like a works bike with all those go fast bits and holy Dooley the pipe looks awesome.
We used to go riding in a forestry just north of Perth that had certain areas for juniors 125/ 250 and open bikes.
Sandy forestry.. Man that was a while ago.
Heal fast and stay safe. I sorta miss my '10 WR
Until it's Sunday ride time........
 
Yup ride planned for tomoro arvo maybe n Monday arvo too. Will be a bit low key as still not 100%.

My 125 pipe looks even better than the 300 one! Ill post up a pic of it too.

Lookin at shots of 300 I cut the side panels down too much. Should buy some new ones n cut em down so they a bit 'deeper' at the bottom. Stock used to shit me as boots would always catch em
 
image.jpg image.jpg went to the beta dealer the other day n grabbed a coupla sets of fork guards. Perfect fit up tho the reds a little off for the husky(not a deep red more pinky/orangy). Did use a heat gun to move them away from fork legs a little so they wouldn't rub but that was it. Brake n speedo holder is perfect too. $70 for 2 pairs not bad. I like em anyway

Makes me want to attack mine with paint stripper, but I fear it won't come up that good. Was it polished and rewelded or is that what they're like under the paint?
 
Nah old mate heats em up to get all carbon/spooge out then wire brushes em back bare then heats up seams for aesthetics. This pipe was pretty mangled too but he gets em back to probly 90-95% like new! He does good work for sure
