• 4 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014
     TE = 4st Enduro & TC = 4st Cross

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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

hello all. recently bought an 09 txc250. after my purchase i recently found out about the whole italian made vs. austrian made husqvarna deal after trying to get a few basic parts for it (oil/air filters etc) after calling my local dealership they told me they don't have a single lick of literature on pre 2014 bikes, so my search was on. i usually use motorsport.com for all my jap bikes but this particular YEAR doesn't even show up on their catalog.. i ended up finding out about OEMcycle.com as well as a euro site called italhusky.com. After talking to a few friends of my new purchase, the first thing they said to me was "the stepchild" i guess it pays off to research before you purchase?:doh: anyways I'm in no need of any engine overhauls/complete suspension rebuilds in fact i don't really need anything for it, but my only questions are as follows..


1. are there tc/te parts interchangeable between this bike? (plastics, suspension, basic engine/chassis parts)

2. are there any other common websites used for these great bikes?

forgive me for i have been in the dark with my passed susukis, hondas, and yamahas.

Welcome garagejunk, the parts are very interchangeable between the models, just ask and someone will help. I have some of the original literature from the 2009 models if you would like some. You can email me here http://www.motosportzhusqvarna.com/Husqvarna TE, TC, TXC, 250, 310, 450, 510 08-10 DOHC.htm. Good luck.

thanks mike. i did get a shop manual for the 2009 model line and it is very helpful. looks like ill be going to you guys when in need, thanks again!
 
You've got what's called a "big block" motor. Pretty much EVERYTHING is interchangeable... even a lot of motor parts, with any TE, TXC and TC- 250, 310, 450, 510. (The TXC & TCs were carbed, IIRC). The plastic is no problem at all and most parts should not be a problem.

Use the sponsors on Cafe Husky. Bill's Motorcycles Plus (BMP) and Hall's Cycles are two shops that stock (no really: they stock) husky parts and ship worldwide.

Sweet deal, thanks for all the help so far! I think my search is complete for the perfect weekend blaster as ive said before ive been through my fair share of susukis, hondas, and yamahas both 2t and 4t but couldnt keep myself happy with them. Eventually sucked it up and spent a bit more money for this one. But im glad i did.
 
Another dealership is Motoxotica in California. Dan and Anne can get you just about anything and are very knowledgable.
 
Thanks for all the input so far guys. I just pulled the rocker cover off to check valve clearances. Im a few thousanths off on 3 valves so im waiting for my shim kit to come in to get back up and running. Bike ran flawlessly, just doing some prevenative maintenance after learning with an rmz250 with some out of spec clearances...other than that my short legs will be enjoying this electricstart come spring time. Any suggestions on gearing for enduro/hill climbs?? I do need a new drive set but havent bothered looking at tooth counts yet.
