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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

WR430 1982

Yes am going to Harrow, the WR has Pirelli MT21 Rally Cross tyres on it so have entered my 82 CR250 which has proper nobbies on it.
Might take it up and take it for a little spin though.
 
you have described "stock 430 jetting"
too rich bottom/mid, ok or lean on top.
it seems they were all like this, air or liquid..i finally have mine dialed in..
 
Jetting sounds pretty good on the low-mid to me, but justintendo is correct, stock jetting on all 430s is rich on the bottom, lean on the top.
 
congratulations!

I am new to Husky's myself, hence my enthusiasm, haha...

two sources here right off are the tech section that has lots of manuals and parts guides in pdf for you/us.
Then there are cd versions of those from sponsors and advertisers easily found.

And another possible source, and good reading anyway even if not your exact model is the Vintage MC Test Library
