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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

wonder where we can get these sweet footpegs...

Hi !

Awesome - thanks!!, we try and get it right!!!

Plenty of those footrests in stock. We are currently working on our new website which I hope to have finished by Christmas. We ship DHL every day - all over the world and they have been pretty good.

BR, Andy.


I know Uptite, if that's how it's spelled, made some trick pegs, and may be redoing them now or shortly, as well.



Regarding HVA, my concerns were for no reason. I mean, I got paranoid with delayed and somewhat lacking communication from them up front. But the NOS parts arrived this morning. If I wouldn't have spotted the group thread of the other fellow having trouble, and then read the other stuff on the net, I would have been fine. As the parts actually shipped and arrived extremely quickly. Apparently, they are behind on the communication side of things, and even my account on their website still just says pending next to my order. No signs there, that it even was filled, and or shipped. Yet, again, I have the NOS gas tank and side panel right here next to me. So no worries on the little side topic of HVA issues.



Those pegs do look trick, I must admit. We should start a vintage peg thread, to get all the pics of different kinds together. Might assist in knowing what a person needs or wants for a given bike, and what was/is available.
