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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

1987 Ohlins Shock Manual?

Any one know of or where to find repair manual/info on 1985-88 Ohlins shocks?:confused:
If you need help rebuilding the shocks you can send them to me. As long as it has the rebuild kit and oil the rebuild will be $100. Just finished rebuilding mine.

But if you're a DIYer I do not know where to get a manual. But it's the same as any other PDS style shock with the IP Piston. There's one retaining ring that's a pain but other than that it's straight foward.
 
Thanks Michel for the info on the shock, just what I needed!
I'm going ahead and getting that 430ae motor should ship begining of next week.
I'll keep you posted.
