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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just picked this up a few days ago! Only 504 miles on the clock. Almost too pretty to ride...but I will!

Thanks! Hey...couple of questions here. This is my first WR, so here we go.

1. First, there is an unconnected wire, a red one with a pigtail connector, back by the rear fender. Not connected there or up front, where it ends under the number plate. Any info?
2. Also, I have tightened the carb boot clamp (boot between the carb and cylinder), but it still seems kinda loose. I've looked at some WR's and it looks as if folks have replaced the stock boot with a piece of radiator hose and some good old-fashioned hose clamps. Is that the hot set-up (as they used to say)?

I'm sure I'll have more when I start riding it. My only spin has been around the yard. VERY different from my Husky CR's! Surprised me.
 
Dont know about the red wire. I found many wiring diagrams on Cafe Husky by digging around and by doing so I was able to route everything. From Stator: Yellow is hot lead to headlight, green hot to tail, and blue goes to kill switch. Tie the voltage reg. into all lighting. My WR headlight has a dual stage bulb suggesting there may have been switch to go to brights and normal running but have not gone there yet. My carb is also a bit loose, but has a good seal, I don't think it will pull air in front of carb. Enjoy, my little 125 will rip.
