• 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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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 TC 570 -02 Upgrade

PeterHB

Husqvarna
AA Class
This winter I have upgraded my 570, to make it as easy to ride and modern as i possibly can. The engine has got the same spec as Jonny Lindhe had on his world championship machine, when he rode motocross world championship in 2001-2002. Halvards Motor built engines for both Jonny and Anders Eriksson when they ran 570. I Bought a Pro Circuit pipe also.
Have also mounted Kayaba TC forks from 2011. Marco from Bernaracing have modified a Honda Öhlins TTX shock to fit 570, he also revalved and changed spring for my weight.
I have also upgraded the plastic and decals, to better match the newer bikes.

Some before and After pictures:

nice exhaust pipe and I got to say I love the Ö! ;)

Can´t see me liking the plastic conversion. I love how the 570 looks, but that´s up to you.
 
Nice work! From the pics it looks like you have a newer carb, could that possibly be an FCR41mx? Any info on converting from the Del' Orto would be appreciated. Intake boot and air horn need to be changed from OE to fit? Brought a 2001 TC570 back from the dead, but the carb is in sad shape. thanks, and great job.
 
here in Germany, most of the 610 fans rides their bikes with a mikuni flat instead of the dello. The engine runs smoother and has more power at higher rpm than the stock one.

FCR was stock on the '02 570.
 
Took a lot of elbow grease the old fashion way. Some diluted thunderbolt aluminum cleaner to start, very sparingly. Then moved to scotch Brits, steel wool, and mag wheel polish. Had many late nights in the garage. Slowly acquiring all new plastics and have factory husqvarna graphics to apply when all is collected. Upgraded to some 2007 TC510 black wheels, and am down to just a carb update. I'll post more pics as it comes together. Thanks for the input.
