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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

73 125 FRAME COMPATABILITY

I believe the frames for all the 73 models are the same, i.e 125/250/360 etc. It was the bits bolted about that made the different models and types CR/WR?
Thanks in advance.
 
The 125 frame bottom tubes angle up towards the front down tube. The 250/400/450 bottom frame tubes are parallel to the ground. Also the 125 front down tube angles towards the back more. Does not look as though a large case motor would fit in the 125 frame.

I've wasn't aware of this. Learned something new today.

Another frame difference is on the 73 250 and 360 RT's. Their frame is different in the rear where the fender bolts on, similar to the earlier Sportsman.

The MAG cases were derived from the 125 cases so it would fit in a 125 frame. But not the large case engines. Not enough cradle length.
