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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I’ve just seen this posted on the AHRMA yahoo forum

3 vintage MX bikes and all of his equipment stolen from his trailer last night. The trailer was located at his god-child's house in Sparrows Point, MD. Pease keep your eyes and ears open. All his bikes wore the number 89e. One is a 1969 Ducati 450, a 1966 Ducati 250 and a 1974 Can-Am 250.

While these are NOT Husky, this is very disturbing to all us not, just us Vintage guys. I know, I’m going to take all mine out this weekend for some detail photo’s & make sure I’ve written down all the serial numbers. I’ll also be taking a ride to the local hardware for some pad locks, so I can put them thru the rear sprocket holes.

My buddy got his YZ he had just bought stolen, last year, while it was still being transported to his house. I mean almost nothing would piss me off more then having a bike stolen before I even got a chance to see it, but it happens

As they would say in the 80’s cop TV show Hill Street Blues “lets be careful out there” :)
