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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1984 CR125 Owners @ Pictures

Would like to find a '85 CR125, but until then I have to live with my '78. Bought it in the early 90's from a buddies, gf's father. Seemed it was one of a pair owned by her brother, this was the practice bike that never got ridden before he quit riding. Still had the original tires on it! I think I paid $300 for it. It was raced about six times back when I got it and has been in storage since, may still have the original tires on it, I don't remember. Man, I love a good bike score! Heck I don't think I even care about riding 'em, just like to score a great deal!

The yellow/white lens bulbs are about $85 to replace so it only goes in for special stuff. Too much $ to break with a roost.
