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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Dont you just luv Husky...

Water pump bearings and seals required... straight into the local bearing shop...$13bucks later ..all sorted.... thank you Mr SKF
 
It is the same here in the USA. I got all kinds of quality replacement seals and bearing for significantly less than buying from a vintage supplier. If I was only building 1 bike I would think different. But with six to eight to supply for the savings of know where to buy keeps the possibilty of being able to afford to restore that many bikes alive. Along with the ability to do for myself tasks that others so freely pay for. The time I spend repairing is not worth giving up if no one is standing in line to otherwise pay for my services.
