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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Welcome to the forum! Introduce yourself here!

Hi all you Husky fanatics! I was referred to this site by a member on another forum as I was in search of information on the latest and greatest line of Husqvarna bikes.
 
Howdy, I just purchased a 08' Te 510 used with 695 miles. The good folks over at Motoxotica in Vacaville, Ca directed me your way.

Hi Adam and welcome! Never mind, you can spend the 3 weeks soaking up the ambience of all things Husky here in the cafe. Whereabouts in England are you?

I don't think there's any problem with naming a dealer if you want to. In fact there's a section called "Dealers Kudos" where you can post to let everyone know if you've had a good experience with a particular dealer, which is useful for others when deciding who to buy from.

Would your dealer be in Cheriton by any chance? If it's anywhere vaguely near the Andover area let me know if you're coming down to collect the bike and we can meet up for a chat if I'm free. (That sort of thing's normally best arranged through the Private Message facility in your User Control Panel to avoid flooding the list with messages nobody else needs to see).

BTW, just posted my 100th message and I see I'm now a Senior Member! Yay me! :professor:
 
Welcome to the forum :cheers:

There is zero problem mentioning a dealer and the rules were intentionally kept short and simple.

Here is a link if you want to read them

Hello mate and welcome. I'm in Devon, just up the road. I hope those three weeks don't drag too much. :)
 
First post here at Husky Cafe and just wanted to thank Coffee for providing the site and to introduce myself a little. I know alot of Husky enthusiasts are, well lets just say, seasoned or mature, or like me.....an old fart but young at heart and still enthusiastic about Husqvarna motorcycles. Here is my list of Huskys that I've owned in the past 40yrs
1976 250CR Mikkola Replica Sold
1979 250CR "Whip Antenna" forks Sold
1992 "I don't like to turn" 350 WXC Sold
2004 "Best Bike Yet" for me 450TC current steed.
Thats it for Huskys....other bikes include
1970 Suzuki TS90 first bike bought with paper route money
1974 Yamaha CT175
1976 Yamaha YZ125X
1987 Kawasaki KX250
1985 BMW K100RS
several mopeds and scooters
1985 / 1983 Suzuki FA50 "Frankensteined"
1977 Motobecane Moped
1977 Peugeot Moped

That is about it for toys.....I live in San Jose, CA am married for 12 yrs and have an 8 yr old son that I'm slowly getting him into dirt biking. He is not taking to it like his dad did, but he will :D
Thanks everyone !

Hello all.
Just joined and keen to talk with like minded Husky folks.
After years away from home, and away from my neglected, but beloved '00' TE610, I am getting re-acquainted.
 
Hey Guys,
Bought my first husky (2007 510 SMR) a couple weeks ago, cant wait to ride it... unfortunately i received it with a blown tranny, and i've been working on it ever since. It great to finally find a great site for us husky fans. Long time trail rider, first time supermoto rider. Love the bikes, love the community.:thumbsup:

Hi All,

Thanks,

Kevin
