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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Husky 175 Piston

Husqvarna
AA Class
Grandson has a 74 Cr125 with a later 175 GP engine. Was getting kind of slow so we pulled the top end and the piston is worn. Also checked the bore and it's at 64mm which is bigger than any of the overbore pistons I can find.
Anyone got any idea where I can find a bigger piston?
 
The standard size of a 75-76 175 is 61mm, those and 1st over come up fairly often on eBay. I would not hold out much hope for a 64mm or larger.
 
Anybody got a good cylinder for one of these? To bad this one is shot as it has some pretty trick porting. Thanks for the help.
