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 The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.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

Anyone tried the new motoz hybrids or can recommend something along those lines sedonas are hard to find around here did have a mt43 on my gasgas200 was pretty happy with it apart from having less side wall grip.
 
Since I bought every trelleborg ten masters from my local dealer the dust was free 15 years ago. They ran great dug in like crazy never ripped a knob off. Trench diggers. Now with none in the states I switched to the IRC 140-18 scary big and the IRC M5B 5:10-17 and 5:10-18 tires. Since the huskys love to spin tires the bigger knobbies the better. Not a bad replacement for the orginal trelleborgs.

I laugh inside when the non husky riders see the size of the 140/5:10 tires on the huskies.
 
Agree normally go with a big rear, but going to be setting up a regular loop on a friend of a friends property and thought running a hybrid would be less damaging motoz are readily available here so was looking into those running 4psi on husky pegged rims.
 
The motoz are a wide heavy trye and at 4 psi should have a big footprint at higher speed would imagine centrifugals expand tyre to give a smaller footprint, wondered if the pegged rims coul d be a problem at low psi.
