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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Somebody stop me!

Nope. It's just sat on the lift. Doing some riding and stuff, won't start this until the winter and will do a new thread. Thoroughly looking forward to it though! I got a 1941 Bristol Beaufort wheel to restore next, found it on a building site in a pile of scrap. Told them I was a sculptor and scalped it for nothing, might make a nice magnesium coffee table!DSC07157.JPG9_9.jpg
 
I'd be going back there with a shovel and try to find the rest of it. I reckon the engine would be about 6-8 foot further down if that's where it "arrived".
 
my old man flew in beauforts during training. they did a low pass over the jetty to piss of the harbourmaster but hit the telephone wire and had to pay the ground crew a dozen bottles to polish off the copper marks before the CO turned up to find out who the culprits were... such fun... they had plenty of time as the phone line was down....

another crew got lost on a nite nav and came down in the water. 1 guy was panicking coz he couldn't swim so they stayed in the plane waiting for it to sink but when the sun came up they were in a lake that was 3 ft deep!

good luck finding a tyre for that.....
