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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Hello im new to dirt bikes a got from a friend a bike i was told it is a 1985 cr250 the frame numbers are hard to see do to the paint. It has A mono shock, liquid cooled, rear drum and front disk. dose this sound about right. The other Thing is the rear drum bake support bar mounts to the frame should there be a barring on the frame end of the bar?

Thanks for the help.
 
ok the bikes at work I will get some pics up tomorrow. Can you help me with the part number for the bearing?
 
Sounds right, here's 85 CR brochure, it's a 500CR , but the 250 looks real close. There's 2 bearings in the brake arm lever (73 82 198-04) & 2 where it mounts to the frame ( 73 82 302-34)

Yes those are the Husky Part no. for the bearings, i think the lower chain roller bearings are the same.
 
ok ill look into it if not i can mic out the boss and get some. BTW http://www.applied.com/ is the best place to get bearings and other industrial supplies. If you dont have a part number you can give them the dimensions and they will fined one that fits. example swing arm bearings P/N: HK2216 in stock $3.00 locale pick up http://www.husqvarna-parts.com $28.00 plus shipping. Now dont get me wrong i'm not putting down http://www.husqvarna-parts.com but that's a bit on the pricey end of things and the ones from Applied are high end made in England Timken's.
