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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Unadilla MX Rewind

Some pics of the event should be upcoming. We have a up and coming photo pro Allison took a lot of pictures. Hope
we have the pic when we were talking to Dick Burleson. Great to meet him. Must thank Joe for first intro !
Joe, John and I were all talking pic with DB would be great. Might be one, not sure.

Great weekend !!
 
I wish I was able to go this year but nothing ready to ride or haul with right now. Too many cars to work on and none are old enough to be that simple.

I have always wanted to meet Dick Burleson as I have always admired him before he became national enduro champion in 1974. I was even more impressed years ago that he was the first USA mx champion based on the 4th place in the 1970 Trans AMA. Most never heard about it because the AMA did not really support motocross at that time in terms of national as opposed to international.

I agree 100% with Jim, and Dick is one hell of a Nice guy in person, as are all the Vintage Legends, I've had the pleasure to meet...

TON more pictures to post, just takes sometime, as all the files sizes are so large , I've got to reduce them by 50% just to post them...

Same Bat time, same Bat channel....
