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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Has anyone here ever traded there Bing for a Mikuni? I'm talking about the early models with a spigot mount. Mine's a 73 WR250. Just thinking about it and looking for some opinions and how it was done and which model Mikuni was used and how it worked out.
 
Stay with the Bing as I have on my Maicos and Huskys just take the time to get it jetted right .
 
Bing ! A buddy says that is the sound they make when they bounce off the side of the trash barrel as you are putting a Mikuni on . I did the switch on my Mag and thought it made starting easier , had better throttle response down low , and was easier to jet IMO .
