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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hello all,

Have owned 5 husky - latest was a 2009 TE510. Looking at what is basically a new 2004 TC450 (these were the one year late 100 anniversary bikes). 100% original, including all OE decals, etc... I have no interest in potentially purchasing to ride it, was thinking of buying as a garage queen and maybe selling when it is 24 years old to someone that would want to have as a collector. I know these were a bit of a unicorn and were/are not really desirable due to carb issues, valves, bottom end, etc.

Question - what would a reasonable purchase price be for one that is close to new for what I would intend to do with it?

Thanks in advance.

Dan
 
Not really worth purchasing. It's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it regardless if new or used. Bike has an odd Mikuni carburetor. Also parts are starting to dry up. It is a unicorn. Don't get caught up in the 100 aniversary hype.
