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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

125 Huskys.

How many Husky 125s are out there.

Cheers 2T_vs_4T.
PS. Could you post a photo of your Husky 125 and any mods you have done or alternative parts used.

Currently working on the same bike you identified for about eight months now. Been busy, so tinkering time has been hard to come by. Considering the age, the bike was in good condition when I picked it up and I don't think it had many miles placed on it. Finished up the betor shocks a few months ago. Not too many parts available for those. Just finished pulling the engine cases back together. The bike had been left with the cylinder off for quite some time so the crank had collected debris. Everything in the motor other than what is lubed by the fuel mix looked really good. The cylinder was in excellent shape, however, I could not find a new piston for the original bore, so had to get an oversized piston as well as bore the cylinder. The motor should be finished soon, then on to the front forks.

Hi Scott, Huskydogg and visiteur1948,
Great to see the early response to the question. I think if we limit it to 'air cooled-twin shocks' and I would like to hear from anyone with an Husky 125, air cooled-twin shock. Australia is about as far away from the US of A. or Europe as you could get, so lets hear from every where. Ok.
Cheers 2T_vs_4T.

Here is a pic of my '78 CR125. Bought it from the original owner's father. Turns out he had bought two, one to race and one for practice. Got injured early in the season, sold off the race bike and quit riding. This one had sat in dad's garage until about '98 when I found it. My buddy was dating his sister and she hooked me up. Raced a few D-37 GP's w/it till about 2000. Has been in storage till just last month. My kid became interested in it and we broke it out for a local race. He had a gas.....so, now I've got shocks, fork springs and #plates on the way and we're gonna put her back on the track!
