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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Very nice work Bill. One for all the those Huskys you own would be awesome too. Even better if your happened to make some extras. hahaha:cheers: Mike
 
Bill you are killing us!

Ok, now you need to make one for the Husky`s.

I think they ran the same brake pedal lever from like 1978-1982 not sure exactly.

I know my 1979 390 and 1981 430 was the same stamping.

Anyone out there know for sure?

How much are you selling the Maico unit for?

I was at the cal VMX at Glen Helen raceway and saw alot of choice Maico`s out their including our Cafe Husky hero #27 Lefty Leftcoast Kickasser.
 
Here is the pedal mounted on 83-250 Maico.
