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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Too much slack in TLS front brake?

Shorten inner cable, heat bottom barrel remove solder pull through barrel, trim cable, weld blob on end of cable using a mig and resolder into barrel.
I weld the blob as insurance against the cable pulling through the barrel.
You can also manufacture your own fork adjusters using m8 long hex nut slotted and welded onto a bolt.

Just noticed this response - great idea on the cut weld and resolder, that's the answer.
 
You can use a very strong low temp solder so it doesn't affect the cable strength.

I fixed the reverse tee pull levers on the old four speed tranny shifters in the 70's cars. Cable operated
