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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

What transmission is it?

I picked up a ‘79 250 bottom end. The upper lip over the sprocket with the engine number was ripped off. The PO says it’s a cr but how do I make sure. Is there a cog listing somewhere for these older engines.?

I’m still buying up parts. I took a chance on three ignitions I know it’s a pig in a poke but if one works I made my money back. If all three work I’m golden. I have a larger motoplat 360/390, a 250/430/500 motoplat, and a SEM coming. It’s a good feeling when I need a part it’s on the shelf.
 
Also each gear has the main part # stamped in it and it should match the tooth count in the parts fiche.

Thanks I thought someone would know.

This bottom end is complete to the kicker, no cylinder or head. Couldn’t pass it up.
 
One can put it in low count how many crank turns to get one sprocket turn. Then do in high. Compare to a known one or do arithmetic from the parts sheets and see what matches.
