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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husqvarna
AA Class
FBF CR250. FBF shock and 50mm Marzocchis.JD dual mapping with switch. Black DID shoulderless wheels. Titanium subframe(very rare),pegs,front/rear axle,swingarm bolt,brake pivot bolt,triple clamp bolts,h bar bolts and few more pieces. 2C pipe. Billet triple clamps,and billet clutch basket from FBF. Had to be FBF race bike because of AMA pro inspection sticker on frame.Also has all brake lines safety wired like a factory team would have done. I know it's old but wonder what it be worth.Runs perfect.
 
In my opinion, it's def a rare and collectable bike, looks great with lots of primo parts. Hard part is finding that rare collector interested in that era Husky. I'd be into it on a vet MX track, but wouldn't be interested in paying collector $$ for it. If it doesn't generate much interest around here, I doubt you'll get top dollar for it elsewhere.
If it was mine, and since Husky is so popular now, I would take it to the races and ride it around. Then hang a for sale sign on it and see who bites.
Also, could list on ebay with a high reserve, post it on craigslist, and see if there's any interest.
I've talked to FBF and they were really nice and helpful. Call 'em up and tell them what you've got.

It's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it, no matter how much you invested. I'm not into collecting or garage queens myself. I like to ride and race and that's how i get my moneys worth out of my investment.

:cheers:
 
I'm not really sure how to verify if it is truly a fbf bike..from what I've understood you could basically buy every single part to make one and some people did...i had a fbf 125....or did i?? Ya it had all the same stuff as yours pretty much..lol..but I'm still not sure...its amazing how much money some parents will spend to make there kid feel like a hero..collectability?? Not sure...probably worth a little more then your average old bike ..i think you would have ALOT better luck on eBay then cafe husky...there are many many people not familiar with this site...that use ebay...nevertheless a.cool bike! Don't quite me but I thought the cylinder should also be stamped fbf...and mine with the black fork tubes also had a fbf decal on the fork tubes...i thought (been a long time) the name said (sky) and it had rider weight and fork spring rate has well....was a cool bike..01 I think...and refused to blow up.....
