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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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!
Bike looks great. I LOVE my 2008.Hi all,
New to the site, new to Husqvarna, and relatively new to the world of bikes. Up until buying a 2008 TE 250 last week, I've only really ridden pit bikes and mountain bikes. Im a Brit living in Dordogne, France in prime dual sport/enduro territory with many bikes passing my house to enter the woods and mountains beyond.
As a short arse, when I bought the bike from a 6' chap, CH and its members gave me the info I needed to get the bike to a comfortable setup (without a longer link!) so thanks for that! You might spot the carved seat...
All I know about the bike so far is that it's been very well looked after, has very low mileage and hours for the year, used only off road, has the arrow exhaust system, and she goes like sh*t off a shovel! The original exhaust and new set of Plastics were also included.
I look forward to getting to know every nut and bolt and the world of enduro & dual sport with CafeHusky!
Elliot
And now for something completely different:
1990 EML Jumbo with 2002 Husqvarna TC-570 engine.

i wud hit that SO hard she'd have bruises on her tailpipe!
If you do that on a sidecar, you end up in the hospital or in a wooden box. They are very unforgiving. The rider and pasenger must be a fluently working team in order the even get around gently.
