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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

can someone enlighten me on the HVA bit?? where does it fit in the scheme of things?? just a quick few lines will do it
 
HusqVarnA = HVA come on Suprize get with it **************************************** LOL:D
 
Nicely done Claude. It's great when you can keep the original rims. How hot do you get them ? Annealing temperature ?

One question though .... that throttle assembly ..... looks like a Chinese copy as it does not have 'Made In Sweden' cast into it. I would raise a serious question here as I think they are dangerous. I was lucky when I had an issue some years ago. Several friends have not ....
 
my method for restore RIM =
- hammer 3 KG
- coating soap "marseille"
or oil old motor
- torch 350 c °
- soap black = it's ok
- hammer ...
....

yeah a pair of magura perches and levers are about 75 dollars, but its a shame to put cheap imitations on good looking bikes. those levers break instead of bending, while the maguras can be straightened many times with a little heat. i even took the domino off my 95 and installed a magura on it..lots of adjustment and it has that great feel!
