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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Im looking at building a 1982 xc 430 with a pre 84 4 stroke motor , as I cant seem to find a 83/84 510, any help would be greatly appreciated
or a 510 would be considered if someones got one
cheers Scottm
 
main problem is the frame downtube, 2 stroke has the bending/ offset the whole way down, and i believe the 4 stroke is straight.
 
The frame appears the same or close to a 2t? But the front motor mount appears lower and the base of the frame under the motor the outside rails look wider. Yup look at the front of the left peg the lower frame rail jets it in that area.
