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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Value Husky 250 1968 60 miles on the clock!

I just wonder what you guys think a bike like this is worth. The bike is new with only 60 miles on it, and it hasn´t been started since 1970. Totally standard of course.I can buy it if i want, but what is a good price?

I bet it look super clean but will need a lot if it has set that long. In fact i bet it needs the motor gone through as the main bearings will surely have rust on them. Seals will be cheaked and leaking, tires shot, etc. Just food for thought.
 
is it complete, engine turn over?? etc...offer $200.00 - $500.00...if its restored....well ...
Photos would help guage a price..looking for vintage parts takes work-effort on your part.
YOU don't want to have a bike missing a critical and Un-obtanium part..at that point you either have $omeone make/machine the part$, or the bike is just parts for sale.

LOL....I had a machine shop fab up a small piece of aluminium stock to retain a spark arrestor for my '71 400.. $40.00....also needed to have a muffler shop fab a length of tubing for the silencer and arrestor $40.00.. $80.00 just to get a piece of screen (spark arrrestor) on it!
 
Hey mike just curious but where did you buy the spark arrester? Does anyone have any websites that have them listed for a 69 400 cross?
