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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

I know, the title might be a little misleading but you're here now, so you might as well read on. :D

Some years ago my brand new Husky got stolen. When the police returned it to me it was without some parts, but only now have I decided to get it back together again.

One of the missing parts was a Brembo brake handlebar clamp. Not wanting to pay Brembo prices or those over inflated prices of "specialist parts suppliers", I jumped onto eBay and found something a lot cheaper that I thought might just fit. A message from the seller confirmed that the bolt hole centres ("centers" if you're from the USA :) ) were 32mm apart, so it should fit without any problem. Great !

The part I fitted was made by Honda - Part No.45517/166/006 - and it's a 99% perfect fit and cost £5.90 inc' delivery.

So, if you're on a budget and don't want to pay premium prices it can be worth taking a gamble now and then.
