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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Can somebody take some photos of the rear side panel mounts on the 83/84 white two-strokes? I think the muffler side has a bolt on bracket, but not sure about the right side. My frame has no mounting tabs welded on. Broken off? Thanks in advance.
 
The 1983/84 had push on side -panels that had rubber grommets riveted to the side-panel on non muffler side.I needs some of these grommets,but can't find them?

muffler side was bolt for rear mount.....push on ruber grommet that weas pop riveted to front of left panel..............right side was riveted rubber snap on grommet for both. BTW despite what most think, 83 and 84 were different panels...........shape was different at front area. 83 was rounded to "flow" into metal tank junction...........84 was more angular to blend in with 84 plastic tank that made an attempt to carry the fuel lower in the frame.

Thanks all!

Mattskn, those are the shots I need!! I got this bike recently and the side panels were in a box. The panels are OK, all the rubber grommets are there, the forward tabs are on the frame... but there's NOTHING at the back! It looks like I need to have someone make some brackets for me... any of you guys do some light fabricating? I do some light paying!!

Joe, Thanks for the tips about 83 vs. 84 panels. Maybe we should try to put up some comparison photos. I could easily post what I've got.

Thanks again!
