• 4 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     TE = 4st Enduro & TC = 4st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

The real Husky test!

Excellent Video and thanks for sharing. I love the on board shots of the TE 250. Felt like the camera was going to get sucked into that airbox.
 
Dang Adam...you were ripping around that track! I love the POV on the TE 250 at the end...great perspective.
 
Loved the video and the footage.

Adam -- how did the WR300 compare with the 450/510. I'm curious as to which is easier to ride fast in the woods.

Top notch stuff -- thanks for sharing.

Firstly, thanks for the feedback guys! As for the WR300, it's definitely got the outright horsepower to run with the TE450/510 but it's not as balanced, or settled as the big 4ST's at high-speed. I think mainly because it's lesser weight makes it more flighty, but also I feel the chassis/suspension dynamic needs more set up time to get it to feel right.

Also, in terms of frame development, I'm pretty sure the WR250/300 are yet to be updated with the same technology as the new 4ST frames?

Regardless, the 300 is a featherweight power-house and is easy to thread through the tight trees when you torque the motor at low rpm. Oh yeah, they've smoothed out the delivery better for 2010 as well – the 09 300 was ballistic!
 
Thanks for your ride report. Hey what do you think about the power on the 2010 TC 250? Do you feel it quits pulling shy of the jap bikes?

Great info -- much appreciated. D.
 
Back yard video production? Well it looked very good to me but I am no expert in that field; thanks again for posting up the video and providing great bike feedback.

Re-read my post . . .

I said it looked like more than a back yard video production. :thumbsup:
