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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Couldn't resist 84 WR250

Found this lonely 84 WR250 on C-list, very reasonable and only 200 miles away. To make it more unresistable I found a ride for it also. Only picture was crummy one on C-list so I took a chance and it looks very good for the price. Rear shocks dont leak, forks good and a undented 83 tank. Side panels are new and rest of plastic is in good shape also. I do need to find a kickstand for it though. Been wanting to build a WR with all of my spares, I have a 84 WR500 I bought for the engine for my 83 500XC so I do have the correct tank.

I would have bought it for the brake pedal alone! I just picked up a 1984 250WR also.
 
Nice. Thats quite a collection you have there. Please keep buying these up in our area so i will not be tempted. :D
 
If you pay half for the ones I keep you from buying look at all the money you'll save Kelly! My 82-430XC came from that side of the mountains, Oregon City, bought it last summer from a forum member-FlyArmy. Trying to get this bike running. It rode home from Boise Idaho to Pendleton-200miles with the gas on so its a little...soggy.
