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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Any one needing rebuild the calipers for a 1985 thur 1988 husky wr 430 the pistons and seals //// from a 1994 ktm 300 mxc 28 mm pistons and small and large seals will work match perfect about 55.00 dollars fropm ktm parts house will up date as work goes on
 
The 85-86 has two pistons one on each side of the disc. Are you sure those rebuild parts are the same?

Congratulations on figuring it out, I tried at bikebandit.com to see what they had, pistons are one part # a pair and the seals are a part# looks like four but I don't see the dust boots listed in the other place's temporary unavailable kit. Was a little more than you quoted.

Though I never bought one brake master cylinders and calipers were not all that expensive complete from one of the guys who opened up a small storefront with about three feet thickness of catalogs to order from. I think the internet has kind of put that kind of guy who never seemed to last too long out of business.
