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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

500 cc on full throttle...yeah baby!!

I just thought someone should work up an 83 xc 500 and have a crack at that....down pipe, port work, bigger carb :eek: lowered shocks and forks, looks like fun.... I think the 400 would be waaay underpowered. I wonder when its on again???
 
You know talking about auto's I had a Polaris 400L quad. With a snowmobile auto clutch. With some clutch tuning, pipe, carb jetting the darn thing would fly. With the speedo it spent 50% of riding miles in the air when compared to other quads. My point is everyone thought the autos were no good. Now there the cats meow. No shifting just picking the lines. The machine does it all for us. Maybe we'll see a auto husky again?
