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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

sprocket removal kicking my butt!

Hey guys. I can't get this darn sprocket off my 72 WR 250 Its one of the older tapered fit jobs. I have tried about everything. Used a plate and two bolts and a ton of heat and nothing. Anybody got a tool that will work? Any ideas?

Also I'm looking to replace the shaft out to a splined drive with the c clip. Anybody know where I can find the exact dimensions so I can see if it will fit.

Doubt if that puller will work.
Find the correct puller when you do use a hose clamp around the legs and get it tight.
Heat only the sprocket not the shaft.
Had one so tight let it set overnight with a lot of pressure on it next mourning found the puller and sprocket stuck in the wall.
Have had some that only way was to use small cutoff wheel must be carefull not to nick shaft.
Some can be tougher than others, especially if they have spun and welded themselves together.

Up tite- I was heating just the sprocket but it was transferring into my home made puller. I tightened it down so much it also flew off like you said but I caught it burning my hand lightly. Better than a wall or window.

Auto- wow that's awesome! Let me know if you got one.
