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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

HELP need seal

Having a hard time finding a seal for the counter sproket on a 1987 wr 430 the one that sits behind the little spacer in the case can you change it with out splitting the case >>> ? if i can find one
 
It is a sealed bearing, there isn't a normal seal. If you have to get a double sealed bearing just pry the inside one off. Yes the only way to change it on that model is to split the cases. The level for the oil is below that so a lot of oil shouldn't come out. I had that bearing go bad and was noticing shifting problems not oil spots on the floor.

The guy is asking about the seal. Have you ever seen a sealed roller bearing? I know in Norton there is a ball bearing which is generally replaced with a roller for longer life but it isn't one which doubles as a seal. That is the only help I can see in your link as the case for 1988 and most likely 1987 won't allow one to use pullers like in that link.
