• 2 Stroke Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Italy - About 1989 to 2014

  • 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 would be super jealous of you if you get that bike! I wish guys would sell their bikes for that cheap around here. Everyone always wants a grand and a bit for their old beat up huskies.
I would love to start a rideable collection of 85-86 huskies, I've already started with an 86 430 auto
 
the opportunities are there in other peoples areas, the grass is greener syndrome
there is a fix, move, no just kidding
i bought my 87 CR250 in near perfect stock condition, the tires were original and had a ton of tread
i took it apart and mailed it to myself, if someone is willing to do this for someone else, how about when you go to their area they can ride one of your toys
there is some give and take to get what you want, but the best part is you get to meet cool obsessive compulsive people just like you :eek:
 
theres always tons of huskies for sale around me. sometimes at very good prices. lots of 87-88 bikes for some reason. buddy bought an 87 xc430 for 700 dollars. very solid bike, nice plastic, and barely rode. needed another 500 put in it to be set. for some reason oh and pa have lots of huskies...
 
I've only seen 3 1/2 86 bikes around me. One 430, one 400, one 240 and a parts bike for the 240. All of them wanting 1000-1200 for bikes that need a lot of work and money put into them to be good working bikes again.

thats funny you say that, i have alot of parts that were supposed to be old eddie lojak parts, and a bunch of plastic that says lojak racing. theres still a lot of swedes lurking around here. i bought one of the smaller local dealers out here when i was a senior in high school. thinking back i should have been saving for something else..
