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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hi everyone, just wanted to share a few pics of my California vacation and my 84 xc500 mixing it up at Glamis with the newer bikes. The old girl ran pretty good, still have a bit of a carb issue, but she was a comfy stable bike when compared to riding my newer bike1506683_10201763026214573_1268933406_n.jpg1607003_10201932911907676_2058191900_n.jpg1779885_10201932903467465_1349436720_n.jpg1888640_10201932903707471_437256846_n.jpg
 
its a safety thing:thumbsup: , as you can't see over the really tall sand dunes, so u just see the flag, dune buggy use them too
 
yup, can save two machines colliding head on at the top of a hill..i never realized this was a "u.s." thing!
 
no its a "place with sand dunes" thing.... Africa, aussie etc wherever clowns roar around on sand, they put a big flag up so they may avoid a potentially nasty incident.

mate clipped a dune buggy at the top of a dune years ago, sheared the top front shock mount clean off the buggy and he did 500 somersaults and tore the footpeg off his bike. very close call for everyone. (no flags)
