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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Rode the '82 430WR for the first time Sunday...

I remember that, the Hodaka's didn't have nothing for your Penton. But I think you could have won on a Tohatsu. 90% rider 10% bike. Your just lucky I broke down. LOL
Tulsa is about as far east as I can reasonably get, I'd love to ride it again on my Husky.
Are you going to try to make it to Mass this year? I can only dream about that one.
Sure hope they bring it out west to Bad Rock someday. That would be AWESOME.

Keith "Skipper" Voss and his Super-Super Rat beat me this year. I crashed twice in the first test the day 1 and gave up 35 seconds to him right there. He is far too good a rider to give him that much time so my race was basically over in the first test. Keith rode great and I was never able to make up enough time to get close to him. Even if I had not blown that first test I'm not sure I would have beat him, he was really on it that weekend. Day 2 we ran that same test and I ran it 55 seconds faster than day 1 and set the 5th fastest time overall PV included. We both set top 10 overall test times all weekend even against the PV bikes on our vintage 100s.
