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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hello All!

New to the cafe. I live in Vacaville, Ca and ride a 2009 TC510. I do most if not all of my shopping at MotoXotica in town and race with a local motocross club "Over the Hill Gang." I'm looking for more information on suspension and anything that will help with handling.
 
Hello Husky owners! New to this site. Too much snow here to ride so I need to at least do some reading. I have a 08 TE450 and can't get enough of it!
 
Hello! Just joined. Just picked up an 06 510 SMR that needs a little TLC. Messed with it a bit myself, but have my hands full at home with other bikes. Took it to George at Uptite. He recommended me to this site. :thumbsup:

I just sold 2 orange bikes and I will be taking delivery of a "new" 2009 TE310 this week. I have tons of questions about Husky and my new 310.
 
Hello, George here and about to purchase my 2nd Husky after riding orange the last 7 years. In 2000 I owned a WR 250 which I loved to ride and race. My bike and I made it in the 2001 and 2002 Husqvarna catalog. That's me doing the cross up wheelie in the attached catalog pics. Good times and looking forward to riding a Husqvarna once again!

Just picked up a new 2009 TE450. Been riding street for 21 years, atv's for 7 and this is my first offroad bike (ok, not really, I did have an XT225 a few years ago).

Hello everyone,

I took the plunge and ordered a 2010 TE250. I expect to receive it mid-march.

I am 39, have enjoyed trail riding as a kid, resumed riding at 30, hooked on the sport since then. I like to ride single tracks, away from wheel chairs (quads). My son is 12, enjoying the sport like I do.

I owned an elephant XR600R for one year, moved on to the bird watcher bike KDX220R and now own the fabulous KTM250XCW. Until recently, I thought the XCW was the ultimate bike.... however, it has one major flaw: It comes with a trailer! As the kids grow older, I gain more freedom, am able to ride more often and began to reverse the aging process. I therefore wanted a plated enduro bike to ride even more often! I hooked on enduro.

In my neck of the woods (Province of Québec Canada), it is impossible to street plate an off-road bike. For 2010, Husky/BMW saw the light and officially homologated the TEs as street legal in Canada. To be honest, I was waiting for the Husabergs to become street legal then stumbled on this site: I read a few reviews, watched few videos regarding the TE/TXC line and was sold. Here I am! ... crossing my fingers... hopping that the TE250 will yield a very high fun factor. Of course, I will post a ride report once I get to ride it in April.

Cheers.

Hello everyone!

I joined this site to learn more about vintage suspension on Husky's

This looks like a cool site. I hope one day I'll own a vintage bike.

I'm getting ready to rebuild a guys 1983 husky shock made by Ohlins, and I need to get

my ducks in a row. Parts, intructions to complete the build, nitrogen pressure and such.

So any help is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Wazz

Hello everyone !!

Tom from Atlanta Ga. chiming in.
I've been rideing Huskies for the past 23 years.
Currently own a 93' 250 EXC, 93' 360 EXC, 00' SMS 610, 06' SMS 610, and my new as of last week 09' TXC 250. I've sold off all my Swedish Huskies long ago.
I have a Husqvarna lawnmower, Husqvarna sewing machine, and a Husqvarna Lahti 9mm pistol from the 40's. As you can see, I love everything Husky. :lol:

Looks like you have a good and helpful forum going here, and I greatly appreciate the efforts of all involved. :cheers:
