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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Just back from my road trip to California - where I picked up some good stuff and also went to Malcolm Smiths.

Good to see the book is finally out****************************************

I will post up some pics when I have caught up with webshop orders!!! Sorry for any delay if you ordered last week, but I insist on personally checking every order before it leaves the factory!!!

We had a great time at Farleigh Castle VMXDN this weekend. Well done to the organising team (Dave King and Co...) for doing a great job. We were there helping out all Husky mounted riders from around the world - but mainly to support the team from the Austrian Factory squad who were there for the first time. I will post some pictures when I get some free time at work!

Thanks for helping me with lightening my wallet Andy...:D

I changed the carb jetting on the 500 (put the larger main jet in) for the last race and she was fine....think she was running out of juice by the time she had hauled my fat arse up that long up hill with that 310 Main jet...:eek:

Yes, Kris Rosenberger was one of the riders and supplied most of their bikes. They were pretty special 510s and one CR500.

No, my 410 Enduro bike runs fine - but the radiator cores are high density and 42mm thick cores that all the GP bikes use! Especially made by GMX Radiators...

Ha !

Yes, when I ride a 4t I wear one like a backpack - having drunk the contents of the crate! The Swedes are a bit of a taller breed than us Southern Europeans... The average 'leggy' blonde Swedish girl would have no trouble!
