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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Now I see how they changed the frame from the two stroke design for more room for the carburetor up high. I placed one of those engines in a two stroke frame of that vintage and it looked like I would need an offset intake or something.

just replace the rear frame strut,,,and use the factory husky aircleaner.. the carb clears ok, it sits too far back to use the 78-82 aircleaner assemblys, when you remove, shorten,and move it back about 6 inches, you can use the factory 510 air cleaner..you loose a little strength, but not enough to worry about unless your doing triples and mondo jumps..but at my age,.with a 260lb bike,,doubt thats gonna happen.

Michel,
Is this the same place or person that made this tank? I would be willing to part with a certain part of my anatomy for one!

Hello HVY
The monoshock alloy tank ( from guide vert) has been made by Kay Pernitzsch alias Svensbike in this forum ( Germany) for his bike.
About my tank , I've made the differents parts and it has been welded by a professionnal :notworthy:.
 
About tank, making this of the 400 wrlc was easier !
