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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

exhaust options for 78 WR250?

My 78WR250 pipe will require a bit of work and before I go too far down that rabbit hole I wanted to poke around for options.

From what I can tell, the 78WR 250 muffler was a one year deal, and the ones on ebay are crap. Are there other years that would swap over? Are there any other new pipe options?
 
Well that opens up the field considerably, thanks. By modifications, I assume you mean moving brackets, not bending the pipe?

More like cutting cones, shifting angles, and welding. I tried to use a 79 390 pipe on the 1978 390WR I am building. It did not work with the ML frame but worked nicely putting the 390 engine into a 1982 WR frame. I ended up getting a 77/78 pipe on eBay that works on the ML frame
