• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 XC 250 Reborn..

I´m back with some pics.

I´ve some problems with the 87-88 parts. It seems like I´ll have to fly them from EU, but first let´s put it on two wheels and as they come I´ll buy them.

Thank´s for all the info, it really helps...

motor looks good..watch for cracks on the swingarm, right where the bearing tube is welded to the rest of the swinger.
 
Let's hope the inside of the motor is as good as the outside. Looking good so far. The late 430WR's are my favourite (of the single shockers). If I had a scanner here I would put up some pics of my 430 back when it was nearly new.
