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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

just rebuilt complete engine. and having problems with gearlever play. and doesent seem to spring back. please help
 
i just got a wr 250.it is a1981.the gear shift lever goes up close to a half inch from center before it starts to grab a gear in either direction.i have a 1980 390 and it has even more play in the shifting mechanism from neutral.both bikes do grab gears tho.i think the wr 250 needs a rod as she makes knocking noises.how much of your 1983engine did you rebuild?dan
 
i have rebuilt every single bit of engine and complete bike nut and bolt everything replaced. i just found out that its the spring that needs renewing so should be out at weekend running it in! yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
