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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

About a Lectron...

AA Class
I recently had a bunch of Husky stuff and I found this Lectron inside.
Because I never used it and I dont know anything about Lectron I am asking all of you any news about it.
I dont find any number on it.
Can be used on Huskys motors ?
To me seems for a big bore ?

Best thing to do is call or email the guys at Lectron, they're friendly and helpful.
If I found an old Lectron first thing I'd do is send it to them for a rebuild and update. If you tell them which bike it's going on they'll set it up for you too. :thumbsup:
 
Is there a limitation for what post-vintage bikes cannot use Lectrons (I know they can't be used on vintage bikes)? Also Brian, what does the power jet circuit do, and what is an average cost for Lectron to do this work?
 
Some vintage classes specify no flat slide carburetors... so Yes

The power jet circuit adds fuel at about 3/4 throttle to wide open and is externally adjustable. It's handy to richen for sand tracks or lean out for extreme high altitude however you rarely need to adjust a lectron.
 
Lectron carbs are legal for all 75+ Posts Vintage classes. As lankydoug said, it adds more fuel on the very top end and is easy to adjust.
 
Mikuni also has power jet kits to add them to their carbs. This allows the power jet to handle the very top and allows you to lean the main jet significantly for finer tuning of the fuel metering.
