• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 have a 1976 360wr with original falk fenders. I want to take them off and save them. Should I replace them with white or translucent?? I'm not really sure what translucent fenders look like.
 
Depends on what you are planning to do with it. If you are going to race it, then I would go for aftermarket ones. Trash those rather than the originals. If you can find a set of translucent ones in the after market then that would be good. I use mine and throw it on the floor, so I have no problem with aftermarket so long as they look original-ish !
 
It came with white fenders so white would more closely match the originals. You can get new OEM replica fenders from husqvarna-parts.com . Phillip had made a significant investment into injection molds to produce his OEM quality plastic
 
All original (except for the Mikuni carb) and unrestored.
